NHL Confidential

NHL CONFIDENTIAL”…
THAT’S WHAT ESPN CALLS ITS LATEST SURVEY…
IN ALL…THE NETWORK ASKED 50 PLAYERS 20 QUESTIONS THAT RANGED FROM…
“WHO’S THE BEST PLAYER???”…TO…”WHO HAS THE HOTTEST SPOUSE???”
THE ANSWERS SAY A LOT ABOUT THE GAME…THE PEOPLE WHO RUN IT…AND ABOVE ALL…
THE PLAYERS THEMSELVES…
TO START WITH:
73 PERCENT OF THE PLAYERS THINK ALEXANDER OVECHKIN IS THE BEST PLAYER…
THEY ALSO THINK THE MOST OVER RATED IS ROBERTO LUONGO…
WHEN IT CAME TO THE QUESTION OF…“WHO HAS THE SMARTEST FANS???”
VANCOUVER FINISHED ON TOP WITH 32 PERCENT OF THE VOTE…
THE BEST FIGHTER IS DEREK BOOGAARD OF THE WILD…
BUT RICK RYPEIN OF THE CANUCKS FINISHED 2ND WITH 20 PERCENT OF THE VOTE…
“DIRTIEST PLAYER???”...CHRIS PRONGER…OVECHKIN FINISHED 3RD…RIGHT BEHIND SEAN AVERY…
THE PLAYERS BELIEVE…THE SMARTEST COACH IS MIKE BABCOCK OF THE WINGS…
BUT WHEN IT CAME TO…”LAST COACH THEY’D WANT TO PLAY FOR???”
JOHN TORTORELLA OF THE RANGERS TOOK THE HONOR…
THE PLAYERS BELIEVE CHICAGO WILL WIN THE STANLEY CUP…
WASHINGTON FINISHED 4TH WITH ONLY 14 PERCENT OF THE VOTE…
BEST FRANCHISE…DETROIT…
WORST FRANCHISE…PHOENIX…
WHEN ASKED…”HOW CAN THE NHL GAIN POPULARITY???”
52 PERCENT SAID…”MORE TV EXPOSURE”…
AS EXPECTED NHL COMMISSIONER GARY BETTMAN IS NOT FARE WELL…
NOT ONE PLAYER GAVE BETTMAN AN “A” GRADE…
THEN IT GOT PERSONAL…
WHO HAS THE HOTTEST SPOUSE???
MIKE FISHER WITH CARRIE UNDERWOOD TOOK 48 PERCENT OF THE VOTE…
BUT 7 PLAYERS WENT WITH…”I CAN’T SAY ANYBODY BUT MY OWN WIFE”…
MONTREAL HAS THE BEST GROUPIES…
BUT THANKS TO THE ROXY…VANCOUVER FINISHED IN 2ND PLACE…
AND GET THIS…
42 PERCENT OF THE NHL PLAYERS IN THIS SURVEY BELIEVE…THEY HAVE A GAY TEAMMATE…
AS THEY SAY IN HOLLYWOOD…
“IT’S OFF THE RECORD…ON THE QT…AND VERY HUSH HUSH”…
