NHL Drama

THESE DAYS…THE NHL HAS MORE DRAMA QUEENS THAN AN EPISODE OF “JERSEY SHORE”…
HERE’S THE LATEST…
FRIDAY IN TORONTO…THE CANUCKS AND HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA WILL TRY AND KISS AND MAKE UP…
A MEETING HAS BEEN SET UP BY CBC…IN AN EFFORT TO PUT AN END TO ALL THE…HAIR PULLING…OVER RON MCCLEANS 11 MINUTE “CHARACTER ASSASSINATION” OF ALEX BURROWS…
AS YOU KNOW…LAST SATURDAY THE CANUCKS REFUSED TO ALLOW ANY MEMBER OF THEIR ORGANIZATION TO BE APART OF THE BROADCAST…
IT WOULD APPEAR “THE BOYCOTT” HIT A NERVE…
ON TUESDAY…ON THIS SHOW…GENERAL MANAGER MIKE GILLIS MADE IT CLEAR HE IS NOT LOOKING FOR AN APOLOGY…
WHICH IS GOOD BECAUSE…IT DOES NOT LOOK AS IF ONE IS COMING…
BUT HE ALSO MADE IT CLEAR…HE WANTS THIS NONSENSE TO STOP…
IN OTHER WORDS…GILLIS HAS ALSO NO INTEREST IN TURNING THIS WHOLE MESS INTO A SHOW FOR DR. PHIL…
HERE’S WHY!!!
AFTER TONIGHT THE CANUCKS WILL PLAY THEIR NEXT 14 STRAIGHT GAMES ON THE ROAD…
8 BEFORE THE OLYMPICS…6 AFTER…
THEIR NEXT HOME GAME IS MARCH THE 13TH AGAINST OTTAWA…
IT IS QUITE SIMPLY THE LONGEST ROAD TRIP IN FRANCHISE HISTORY…
AND IT WILL EITHER MAKE…OR BREAK…THEIR SEASON…
THAT’S WHERE GILLIS WANTS THE FOCUS AND ATTENTION OF HIS PLAYERS AND COACHES…
NOT ON ALL THE “CAT FIGHTING” GOING ON IN THE MEDIA…
ONE LOOK AT THE CANUCKS ROAD RECORD IS ALL YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND HIS CONCERN…
THE CANUCKS ARE CURRENTLY…1 GAME BELOW .500…
SO ON FRIDAY…WHAT GILLIS WILL BE LOOKING FOR IN HIS MEETING WITH HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA…IS A GUARENTEE THAT ALL THIS “DRAMA” COMES TO AN END…
BECAUSE IN THE PLAYOFF RACE IN THE WESTERN CONFERENCE…NO TEAM…NEEDS A RUN-IN WITH “SNOOKI”…
