Comments on: Canadiens Nail Four Of Six All Star Positions http://dennis-kane.com/canadiens-nail-four-of-six-all-star-positions/ Rated By My Wife As The Best Site In The World Thu, 29 Jul 2010 15:15:58 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: jordy strueby http://dennis-kane.com/canadiens-nail-four-of-six-all-star-positions/comment-page-1/#comment-2703 jordy strueby Tue, 06 Jan 2009 20:48:38 +0000 http://dennis-kane.com/?p=1055#comment-2703 Jim, I appreciate the offer to jump ship on teams but doing that is against everything i stand for, I respect anybody who has grown up being a habs fan like yourself and Dennis and all the other loyal canadians fans on this blog but the way you guys have grown up with the canadians colors running through your blood, I've done the same with the Canucks. Its been a tradition in my family to cheer for the canucks that was started by my Grandpa and passed down to my dad and theres no way i'd break that chain in a million years. Its been a long and sometimes painful road watching them but im forever greatfull to the team that has given my grandpa my dad and myself so many great times together as we watched them play ( not to mention its the same team who gave one of my dads best friends and also a good friend of Dennis' Gary Lupul a shot to live his dream ) We may not have a Stanley Cup yet or the amazing history the habs have but when the day comes that we do get are Cup I will know I stood by them through thick and thin and never gave up on them. I will definitely listen to that Shania song either way though Jim,

As in what? Whoa Nellie? Hold your horses? Slow down to a canter or come to a full stop? Whoa as in stop delivering backhanded compliments to all Canuckleheads or just jordy in particular? Okay, I confess, jordy has made sense more than once which atypical canuckleheadedness informs me that he, like Hodgson, would be much better off in a Habs sweater. So, jordy, pump up the volume on Shania's tune and Come On Over! The perks are worth it: a team that knows how to play hockey, fans who know their hockey, and girlsgirlsgirls a natural resource in very short supply in Canuckleland. Hehehe Whoa? As in what?

Do I think jordy is a canucklehead? Of course I do. But sometimes even canuckleheads make sense .... I know, it's an oxymoron but, heah, there's a first for all things, eh?

The Captain Morgan's! Jordy, you're right about fan voting. Except that the league says this is the one time where fans get a say in the NHL. So of course it's off kilter and weird, but Montreal fans voted often and made sure their favourite players got in. Is it right? Not sure. Probably not. Of course Ovechkin should be there. But he will anyway. These votes are only for the first 25 seconds of the game. All the real all-stars will be playing anyway. Anyway, Jordy, glad to see you back. Wasn't sure if you were out of town or just not reading anymore. Happy New Year. Aha! The Captain Morgan’s!

To see 4 montreal canadians starting over players who actually deserve the honor just doesn't sit well with me. Andre Markov is more than deserving but Mike Komisarek and his whopping 2 points has no business being there whatsoever and neither does Kovalev, a case could be made for Carey Price. The All Star game is hokey no matter whos playing in it but being labeled as an all star is an honor and when stuff like this happens it really taints it. My apologies for the dramatic comments earlier though, I'll have to plead ignorant and blame it on the captain morgans from last night. Dennis,
