Thanks. I'm sure they'll touch on it during the pregame? Hopefully?

I can see him doing that. Not funny, not trying to be an over sensitive tool but it's kind of stupid under the circumstances. Of course people are going to think it's true. It's completely believable.

Well, in the context that he was quoted, I can get the sarcasm. I could even see myself saying something like this...

Basically I think he was asked about all the tough times he's gone through with the rehab and hatred from some fans. He answered:
"If it wasn't for my wife I'd probably driven into a tree...."

A bit tasteless, but I don't think totally out of the ordinary.

but in the age of Seau and other unfortunate tragedy...it gets more attention.

Meh, it's just not appropriate period for an athlete/public figure. Extremely adolescent. With that said i feel for the guy. He tried. Would be an incredible story if he went down there and came back an NHL goaltender again. I don't see it happening of course but it would be awesome if it did. Milballs touched on him being a distraction with the club for years, not that we did'nt know that already.

Definitely not...maybe that's why I appreciate it
I'm so tired of the pc police these days it's almost refreshing to hear something that doesn't follow the same ol' standard.

Let Kadri be a shining example of why leaving Nino in the minors isn't absurd. Took him 4 years after being drafted, but now he's awesome.

Funny...just as Mirtle points out on twitter that Isles are dead last in attendance, averaging 33 less people per game than the Coyotes.
