Around SBN: Miikka Kiprusoff Wins 300th Game, Buffalo Crushes Boston

Buried deep in the comments of another riveting blog over at Excluding Zetterberg, some nice fellow going by CaptNorris5 had the following idea:

I think one of the issues that we’ve had trouble with has been complacency. The kids need to learn how to skate with the hate. Therefore, I suggest we claime Stephanne Yelle from waivers. For $500k we can have a skater from the other side of the Rivalry. He’ll play only in practice. Todd Bertuzzi and Brad May will use him to run a murder clinic for some of the less-hungry younguns on the team. Sobotka can keep him chained up in the Zamboni tunnel and drag him onto the ice during intermissions. Fans can then pelt him with hockey pucks. First one to make him cough blood gets a signed jersey!

Why Yelle, for crise sakes? Wtf did he ever do to anyone wearing the wheel? Now, if we were to post something similar about Draper, Maltby, McAsshole, May, Bertuzzi, Osgood, Holmstrom, Lapointe, etc. etc. etc. ... it would be understandable. But Yelle?

The fact that anyone would even suggest treating a player like that show how much class they have over there…let allone it be a guy like Yelle.

Don't worry

the rivalry is completely over, remember.

Seriously, that’s like us suggesting Mathieu Dandenault or something.

Yawn. Surprised?

The ‘19’ over at EZ are not 19 idiots on keyboards; that is the average IQ. To a 14 year old kid living in an urban wasteland, I’m surprised that he/she could even read.

Dude, detroit is practically at ‘road warrior’ status, what do you expect from them, class? They didn’t have that when the economy was good, why expect it now? Adversity reveals the best and worst in us and I expect some of the comments over there to become even more barbaric when detroit’s best chance for escapism crashes and burns… Some socialistic should write his doctorate on this.

This team will make the playoffs and upset the Sharks in the first round...it's our turn.
