Honestly not sure which one is funnier.



Article with quote from agent

According to the above link, his agent said it was mennonite. They could be related. Mennonite preach peace and non-violence. He could have called him a p^$$% and a mennonite. Calling him a mennonite would actually fit that situation, and is derogatory toward those beliefs implying their passivity cowardice and not belief.

The p-word was a suspension from last season, they are different incidents.

He probably didn’t get tossed for that specifically and solely. Probably was running his mouth for a bit before the refs got tired of it and sent him packing. Not sure why it warrants 5 games but if i had to guess there’s probably a more reasonable explanation. That bring said, if anyone calls me a Unitarian, you are getting 5. GDTs.

I don't think he actually got the boot from the game, he was suspended afterwards. It falls under racist and religious insults/slurs. Which, I don't exactly fault the league for not wanting to deal with any backlash from having to determine what sort of slurs are worse.

That said, by blanket covering those insults/slurs, they don't really parse through the intent, which is just feels lacking as an overall response.

Watched Jecho and Stancl last night.

Stancl is the big body who posts up down low on the Kelowna PP. Andrew Cristall and Tij Iginla make that unit go and Stancl is a complementary piece. I was hoping to see Mrtka on the opposite side for Seattle supposed to be one of the top D available and 6'6" but he was out. Cootes is going to go in the first round for Seattle, he's quite a playmaker. Kelowna came back in the third with four goals to win 5-3 and Stancl had the final 2 goals. The GWG the goalie wants back, it squeaked through on a shot coming down the left side. His second goal Cristall found him alone in front and he roofed it.

Still, Jecho is the more involved player. The camera finds #43, he gets a lot of ice. Both guys are big but Jecho's ranginess feels like it comes into play more. He carries the puck plenty, he is a dangerous high man on the PK with his speed. He got an assist last night. I was looking at the Edmonton defenseman Fiddler. Big strong kid, trying to get involved. Making plays, sometimes getting caught and racing back.
