The in heaven part was an edit he later added. It started as "With a little help from Guadreau...."
Yeah but I read it the same way the first time. Seemed obvious to me.

I don't think anyone is saying he's evil or bad, just a huge moron.Not something worth getting too bent out of shape over. Dumb and a careless choice of words? Yes. But not malicious.
And I say this as a Canucks fan, a fanbase big silver threw shade at for most of the post/off-season.
Wait wait wait wait
He wrote this after the death, and thought it was somewhat appropriate
Pfffffftttt this is brutal
Exactly.I don't think anyone is saying he's evil or bad, just a huge moron.
Sports journalists is like military intelligence right?Sports journalists are f***ing idiots, and the hockey media tends to be the cream that rises to the top of that heap.
It is certainly fitting that Phrasing is chiming in!F*** you Frank.
One of those things where i don't think he had any malice in his words but it came off poorly. He could have done better with the original wording.Yeah but I read it the same way the first time. Seemed obvious to me.
Can't think of a better representative of the industry to serve as the president of the Professional Hockey Writer's Association.
I mean, I can but they're rare gems and not indicative of the industry.
I'm not surprised when sports journalists are bad writers, so I just don't see the need to rake somebody over the coals just because they said something that could be interpreted in an insensitive way - even though they obviously didn't intend that. There's a certain kind of online person who will always take the least charitable reading of anything and they're frankly annoying as f*** because those people are never impressive in real life and make dumb mistakes all the time.I think that's how it's supposed to read, but the way it's phrased, it could be misconstrued as his death being helpful to the team for a draft pick. It's still tone deaf regardless.
