there is not and did Ryan make fun of your mother or Craig Adams here? I feel like I should call you a girls name for this rant.

Maybe I am a girl.

Should have clarified...not my suggestion...its the lines from the morning skate.

Well then Ryan's probably already lying on the kitchen floor.

Anyone else notice Ryan has not commented here since people got really pissy for him not giving a shout out for Flower's 300th win?
- Guile

LOL, I think the only time since Ive seen him comment since was to defend his reason for not acknowledging his 300th win.

You guys are so harsh on Ryan. You'll never find a blogger who agrees with everything you believe. Just be thankful he keeps churning out blogs for us to read and debate on. No need to take it so personal.

With the issues this medical staff have discovered over the past year I'm giving them a pass. Honestly Mumps aren't bad it's not like they missed cancer or a blood clot
- dbell646

Im cant give them a pass for doing their job. Sure mumps aren't serious but was very irresponsible for medical people to allow him to be around other people with a potential contagious disease.
Do you think if it was Sill, they would have him on the ice.

I personally don't think the name on the jersey had any impact on the medical staffs decision. Given the fact sid had a booster shot last year and reportedly had very high whatever is used to fight off the mumps in your body they didn't think he had it. We have no idea what his face looked like prior to that practice. They said his condition got significantly worse after practice. Also I'm sure you never make a mistake at your job.

I think they purposely have sent Sid out to hang out with Sill as much as possible.

That's after practice.

That third line I wouldn't even want that as a fourth line in the NHL. What is going on!!!!!!!????????

That's after practice.
- dbell646

And after that practice the were still claiming he didn't have mumps.

I think Ryan does a great job with this blog. And I think when one decides to blog, he has to realize that there will indeed be responses. Seems 'above the belt' so far to me here.

But if I have seen anything bordering on personal, it is Ryan's repeated shots at Craig Adams. CA is a sturdy 4th line center, period, and a decent PKer as well.

And after that practice the were still claiming he didn't have mumps.

That I can't explain with certainty but if they didn't have positive test results they can't just throw things out there.

youre right, no point to err on the side of caution especially for medical proffesionals.

Beau has the mumps!!!!! My god he is just bad luck brian.

Is this serious??????

edit: nvm just checked twitter.

At least he's already injured. Imagine if he just returned to the team and boom, mumps??

Is anyone else concerned about this outbreak? I mean only 600 cases in the entire US last year and about 20 in a workplace with ppl in peak condition and age. I am surprised this actually isnt on national news.

Beau might have the mumps, which means he has the mumps.

Dumoulin is playing tonight, harrington will eat pretzel nuggets in the press box

Honey mustard or cheese sauce Mr. Harrington?

Sidney Crosby: Fastest captain in NHL history to pack 7 tins of grizzly into one cheek

Yikes. Bennett was one of the guys that went to children's hospital too. That is all starting to get quite ridiculous if not already.

Grizzly is bad, but better than using those little pouches Karlsson has in all the time.
