... So today, in a move I certainly didn't see coming, McKeon let loose on Leonsis over at Yahoo! The bloodthirsty villagers are getting what we want. McKeon started off by saying his original post was 'tongue-in-cheek' and went on to address Leonsis' points. ...

... Now, as for the hockey world, the Avalanche front office continues to be quiet, and there has been no news about Joe Sakic or Mats Sundin or any of the other at-least-somewhat-notable free agents out there floating around.

Contraction Talk - Stupid is as Stupid Does

... McKeon came back yet again with another article, which attempted to make his original nonsense, less nonsensical. It didn’t work. After admitting that there was no way in the world that the NHL would contract, (no duh), he went on giving his brilliant reasoning why it still made sense. Sorry McKeon, but your logic is unsound. There is no guarantee that the product would be any better on the ice with fewer players and fewer teams, and the chance that it might be is not worth facing the countless negative aspects of contraction. Aspects, which you don’t even ...
