My comment didn’t mean to imply they aren’t friendly anymore. They built houses next door to each other if I recall correctly. They were at least at one time very good friends. They may still be, obviously they aren’t neighbors anymore.
That’s what makes it curious that he isn’t in, when other guys who have made it based on their pals have. Is it that Francis has too much integrity to stump for his friend and teammate over someone else he finds deserving? Does Mike Gartner (head of the vomited)hate him for some reason (the Flyers and Caps had some absolute melees in the late 80s/early 90s.
Or is he just that borderline guy we’re going to talk about forever, or until he gets in as a builder after 15 straight Metro division titles.
