Nice pot-shot...but try reading the newspaper or listening to the radio. It's not like we're claiming to be insiders -- it's what is out there in print or audio.
Relax. I won't waste my time reading articles on these guys- I waste enough of it here. If you choose to believe all the media, that's fine.
I did hear something a number of years back that wasn't public.
A HOF player and current NHL GM texted his sibling who has a media tie-in in Ottawa. At the time this texter was a member of Team Canada brass at the WCs. The message was along the lines of "if Ottawa is relying heavily on Spezza and Heatley- they're in trouble".
I've acknowledged that he's grown considerably since then, but if he gets the C it would be for the wrong reasons imo.
