Anyone read Paul Stewart's new blog? I asked him a question and here is his response.

I don't believe him for a second.

Paul, am I reading more into this comment you made "Referees have to try to make things as fair as possible."?

Yes.

Are you saying the Refs had to "fix" things so games came out closer than they were?
- powerenforcer


No.

Of course you don't believe him. If you did, then you would post about conspiracies.

The Khabby thing really made me laugh. He obviously was playing through the torn rotator cuff injury. With the groin injury they simply just decided to do surgery and POOF he'll never play again for the Hawks.

I do not know if you took this photo or you found it somewhere - but I just shared this on my Facebook. Unreal - I'm somewhere in that frozen mass down there... LOL!

Did you really think you'd get any other response? In your world, that is part of the conspiracy. To the rest of us, it is the truth. So there is no other possible response. So, why ask?

2 people can't keep a secret. Yet thousands manage to keep a conspiracy.

I surely did not...but still a "cool" pic nonetheless. I just came back to Chicago a few days ago from the Great White North...it's crazy that it was just as cold, if not colder, here yesterday.

By comparison, a pic I took from my phone, in my friend's Piper (the hand is not mine):

Why would he include a statement like that in a blog about hockey? Don't you find that interesting, he is letting the fans into the life of a referee with these blogs. And then to say something that can be judged in many different ways. You may think it was a non-comment, but there has to be something behind that, or he wouldn't have said it.

That's the point that always ends any conspiracy thought I might be otherwise attracted to. The grand conspiracies always require LOTS of people to NEVER talk. They are generally constructions within the mind designed to avoid dealing with the reality of the situation.

Forgot - he has as many goals THIS year as in his previous five years combined.
- StLBravesFan

The funny thing is he was assumed to be a scorer from the beginning.

No I don't. Look up Occam's Razor.

There we go and no need to worry about his cap hit or anything else...

I will take that soft pretzel now Al.

My Tweet from earlier...

Khabibulin out for 4-5 months after undergoing shoulder surgery. Good to get everything taken care of before retirement comes around.

Maybe we have all sold Beach short. Scoring at that clip, he might turn into the next John Scott.

And that's a big wallet/toilet the chairman has going on there.

Another thing the tin foil hat crowd fails to realize is the Conspiracy Theory industry in itself is a billion dollar industry....books, internet sites, movies...people spend money on that stuff and it's crazy. I remember I was infuriated when the conspiracy nut jobs got their hands in the Newton shooting and Boston Marathon bombing saying the parents of the kids were actors or the victims of the bombing were actors with prosthetics....made me embarrassed to be a human being.

So Chicago, St. Louis, and Detroit lead the way with 10 invites. The Habs at 4 with 8 invites. Good showing from the Norris division. So Detroit must have Howard, datsyuk, and 8 swedes?

Hi Phil. Sounds like maybe he was a bust BECAUSE he was such a jagoff.

Hey Mo...AGREED...hope all is well lad

Mere detail. Funny... I don't remember a stipulation about the LTIR

Yep, and that industry is selling to some peoples' need to construct an alternate reality to a situation to prevent facing the "real" reality.
