Give and Go
September 11, 2009
My apologies for the lack of recent activity on this blog. I was out of town for the long weekend, and then came down with a terrible cold upon my return. I’m still not 100%, but I figured I’d share a few stories that caught my eye in the past week. I am working on a new article profiling fantasy-worthy Habs, so stay tuned for that sometime soon. Ladies and gentlemen, here is your Friday morning Give and Go.
- The Sundin Sweepstakes are definitely not as interesting as they were last year. Give it up Mats, it’s time to call it a career.
- Ovechkin is drawing the battle lines concerning the 2014 Olympic Games. Good for him, I say. Since when is the NHL allowed to deny a player his patriotic right to represent his country? A high-profile player like him making a stand is definitely admirable. Expect others to follow suite.
- Kessel is done with the Bruins. I don’t blame him, really. Weren’t they supposed to be clearing cap space to sign him? That Wozniewski signing doesn’t really help, does it? The writing has been on the wall for quite some time.
- Hey, if Carey thinks the team is set, then I’m convinced too.
- Everything is on the line this season for Bob Gainey. It’s now or never Bob, let’s hope those summer signings pay off (read: past the second round in the playoffs).
- Bonding over golf. What do you think is more likely, Gomez scoring a 70 on the course or scoring 70 points on the ice?
- An emotional day for Mr. Gillett as he passes the torch to a new generation of Molsons. Thank you for your time and efforts George, you were an excellent owner.
- Another day, another language issue. But, then again, there are some positive language issue stories, like P.K. Subban taking French lessons in preparation for his eventual arrival in Montreal. I love this kid.
That’s it for now. Go on, enjoy the beautiful weekend we have lined up. I’ll be resting up and back in action for Monday!
