we've known since the draft that he's needed this surgery. and it's not that he had "bad" hips, but they are not as good as they can be.

i'm surprised he didn't get it done last off season, to be honest. hopefully he has a quick recovery and get back to form before the season starts.

he may have hit his head....

i am the Lick Her mayor....

well virt shot it through the net on his first shot at practice today... a-la-weber... soo...

Tyson Giuriato ‏@TysonGiuriato 7m7 minutes ago Just spoke with Travis Green, who says Jake Virtanen's first shot in practice today went through the net. Tyson Giuriato ‏@TysonGiuriato 6m6 minutes ago Green says "there is a lot to be excited about" with both Jake Virtanen and Jared McCann. Wants to get a better look at both. Tyson Giuriato ‏@TysonGiuriato 6m6 minutes ago Green on Virtanen: "Big, powerful kid. Great release and a strong skater. Looks like your prototypical power forward." Tyson Giuriato ‏@TysonGiuriato 2m2 minutes ago Green doesn’t rule out possibility McCann/Virtanen get into lineup, but doesn’t sound like it will be this week. Needs to see more of them.

OH, FRED!

a reach-a-roundabout?

i like to think of you just marching right down the center of the street, like a one man parade.

i don't even know what that means...

yeah, that's only your bus rides, bud. in all my hockey related travels not once has anything remotely like that happened on our bus.

pacquaio will win.

it definitely clears up some things... like what type of fruit he likes to consume.

back to the dungeon with him since he failed to win the series for us.

Gaunce is a better player with a higher ceiling and less cap hit than matthias. Basically he's a more talented Mathias who can read the play better and has a higher compete level.

the game was out of hand, tempers were escalating on both side, and everything was coming to a boiling point. This was fairly mild, to be honest.

I prefer "Be like Bo"

absolutely not, but I don't control the league.

some of stevens' hits were absolutely vicious and head hunting, and people didn't bat an eye because we didn't fully understand the full ramifications of those actions as well as we do now. he ended a couple careers with those hits, and he'd be suspended for nearly the entire season had he been playing in today's league the way he did back then. this hit by jake, however, wasn't a headhunting hit, and he made contact with the head accidentally, as he's still a kid and learning. hell seasoned vets sometimes make the same mistake as he did (timing just a little off makes a clean play no longer clean). I don't think the CHL cares about the principle point of contact not being the head, they only care that the head made contact in a significant manner. when i saw the play live on tv, i didn't think much about it other than it was a big hit. but the alternate angles make it look a bit worse.

the last thing i want is virt dropping the gloves and risking injury.

you literally just said another one....
