[Vote for Rory!]

I agree with that. You can't blame Rory for the fact that a bunch of fans wanted to prove that the whole voting program is bogus. That may not have been their intention (their intentions were obviously to get Rory in the game), but that's what they have done. If he gets enough votes to get in the game, I think he should play. It doesn't bother me, but then again, like I said before, I don't care much for the All-star game.

I think it's very childish to cry about sour grapes just because one guy gets in, ahead of your favorite or whatever, a guy who would not have gotten in if it hadn't been for the bogus voting process. So what? Big deal. Blame the NHL, don't blame Rory, he had nothing to do with it.

That's exactly why he should thank the fans, and decline his invitation. He doesn't deserve to be there, no matter what everyone's opinion of the actual game is. This is supposed to be the NHL, not the WWF.

[Vote for Rory!]

agreed... i don't know how this would be done (i'm not that computer aware) but i'm sure that they can do it if they wish

GO :hlogo: GO!

For what might be the first time in my life, I actually agree with Don Cherry's take. If he goes to the game, the other players are laughing at him, not with him.

[Pierre McGuire]

I've spent alot of time travelling the 401 between Montreal and Toronto. In the same day, I'd hear McGuire do radio spots in Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal. What happens is he tends to tailor his comments to each market. I imagine he gets paid by each station, so he's got to try to please everyone. I've also heard that he might have a little resentment towards the Habs because he applied for jobs with the team in the past, with no success. Having said that, he's a proud Montrealer, grew up a Habs fan, and wants the team to win, and continue to be the worlds most famous hockey team.
