Linkin Park was such a gay band...and they had the nerve to call themselves metal. (frank) music was bad in that era.

to be fair I do think they ever called themselves heavy metal. They were a hybrid.

What a world we live in.

Lazar, Brouwer better keep their heads up in camp! Bro is on a "prove me" contract where he earns vastly more money if he earns his spot in the next game.

Darren Haynes asks the question today:

Interesting poll at the end. 1st line, 2nd line, 3rd, 4th, press box or AHL?

Anyway, zero respect for a fcking idiot who takes his own life! I hear depression?! Awesome! If the dude could lay off the booze and drugs maybe, just maybe he would've been a little happier.

Clyde is still working on last week's episode of GI Joe. You expect him to understand what it's like to be depressed and dealing with suicidal thoughts?

Picture a slightly smaller, 27 year old Ben Eager who has been playing injured for two straight years and at some point lost his game in that time.

He can still throw a big hit and block shots. He just fell on hard times here in Calgary. Ended on a hilariously unfortunate note this last playoffs.

Doobie is a very talented player! This year should define how far he can come! He's 2 years removed from the draft and should be a fixture on the Canadian wj team! He'll get tons of ice and played in all situation in K Town! My bet is he 3 years away only cause I want him playing for the Rockets 2 more years!

Wish calgary grabbed Lind this year. Let those two develop together

The dude was abused as a child. He just never found a way to deal with it in his life. I agree it was the cowardly way out, especially with 6 children, but that crap messes with you your whole life.

I agree. I don't make light of whatever mental trauma he went through....I just hated his music. It was hugely popular and I never understood why. .

At 1,000,000 he's still overpaid. Big body who can skate but brings next to no offense. He will definitely block shots and sacrifice his body. He was well liked here until he got lucky and scored 17 goals and got paid way too much.

His Super Bowl antics with the 2 young guns also kinda put a stain on him. I imagine he will play much better this year now that he needs a contract next year. Good riddance.
