Since we started the site we have not condoned exploiting off ice/personal issues of players.

I've seen numerous pictures of players in bars with women. Wouldn't they be considers "personal/off ice"?

GiG writes Servelli is overflowing with poop, and until you hear that from someone legitimate, you should ignore it.

No no.. that's different... they're above the law. I was told before by a ref that since it's his sitef, Eklund can lie all he wants for ratings, but we aren't supposed to post a trade rumor without a source... and not just any source, a solid viable source.

Guess we can't use the old "reliable source" line Ek uses...

Wasn't actually going at EK... I think we know by now his rumors are mainly for entertainment purposes only.

I have it from a reliable source that player A from Team X is being traded for a multi-player package from Team Y...but I can't say who told me because they're requested anonymity.

So we can make all the jokes/puns we want of an off-ice issue, but posting a picture of it is wrong? Just making sure we know where the line is for present and future use.

Edit: Nice avatar. We had a 30-minute Ultraman discussion at work 2 days ago.

Thought I made that clear. Here it is again:

Please do not post the pic of Giroux's incident. It will be removed.

Thanks

I love that in order for us to see certain pictures now, we will have to go to competing sites.

Deal. I'll take the high road and make jokes about him being a serial rapist and imply that he's a flag-waving homosexual.

Bill,
It's been said the Hexy was handcuffed by the cap situation. Do you think that there would have been a significant difference to the approach to FA had they had money to burn? I for one believe Hexy would not have done much more...

Handcuffed? Link when Claude Giroux got arrested? For grabbing butts? He did that, you know.

Apparently it's cool to make a bunch of jokes about how he goes around fondling people constantly and that he's a flaming homosexual, but a picture of him standing on the street with other people is wrong, so I'll make sure I follow protocol.
