Around SBN: Which Players Will Join The 3,000-Hit Club?

Anaheim Clippings - 7/24/10

Since we did a Cam Fowler video last time, I thought I would point to this segment of The Element which gave a behind-the-scenes look at the Ducks' Pre-Draft Meeting.  The group happened to be talking about Fowler, who the Ducks pegged at third, when Bob Murray asked quite matter-of-factly why the room pegged Fowler ahead of the others?

MADDEN: Fowler's skill and poise won out over Gubrandson's character and competitiveness.  

MURRAY: We're not worried about Fowler's character at all?  Nobody has question marks, right?

  • Eric Stephens links his story on Matt Clark as part of his continuing coverage of Ducks' Prospects.  Surprisingly, we're linked in his story, where we contradict the Ducks by listing Matt with two T's.

Rising defense prospect Mat Clark is profiled in latest Ducks A-Z. And yes, it is one 't' according to the club. http://bit.ly/aOsxG8less than a minute ago via web

  • Me linking my interview with Matt from last season, where he confirmed to me that he "normally" uses two T's, which is why his junior team in Brampton had him listed thusly.

T-Gate. I realize I'm 'just a blog' but I have him on tape: "Either way, but two 'T's is what I normally go with" http://tinyurl.com/3xqovexless than a minute ago via web

Is there a place where I can see the whole video? My searches at NHL.com failed.

The Element? Have you never used the Ducks TV player? Just go there. Or TiVo it off of KDOC. I think this was the last episode.

You know, we talk a lot about Getzlaf as the next captain of the team, but that was a great interview by Perry. I think he gets a little lost in the shuffle. I’m going to try to pay more attention to him from now on. I think we’ve taken him a little for granted.

Not sure what you see as a good interview. It was very bland. That’s how most every hockey player interviews. They say enough just to get by. I don’t see Perry’s interview as being any different.

There's nothing to see here. And nothing gazes back at me.

Yeah totally bland and uninteresting. You’re crazy.

I’m not the smartest guy in the world. I don’t read books or know how "getting pregnant" works. I can’t promise nights filled with intellectual conversation, but if we’re walking past a chain-link fence, you can rest assured that I’m going to try and chew a hole through it.

Ya I must be crazy cause you don’t agree with me.. :p

That wasn’t sarcasm.

I know.. My comment was sarcasm. The point of my sarcasm was to show how ridiculous your statement was. According to your logic, I’m crazy because you don’t agree with me. Just seems a tad unreasonable :p

based on SBN’s rather simple to use (and I thought simple to understand) reply system, brokenyard’s comment “You’re crazy” is directed to Daniel AC. Hitting the “Up” button confirms that.

Defensive much?

Thank you.

Ohhhhhhhh so you were agreeing with me? My apologies

Thanks for pointing that out. Maybe I should stop commenting at 4 and 5 in the morning. Yikes

You know it’s a slow off-season when a debate over the spelling of a player’s name becomes somewhat significant.

Thank goodness Bryz is with Phoenix; imagine the debate that’d arise from the whole “Ilya vs. Ilja” situation! ;)

by BuckyHermit on Jul 25, 2010 5:45 AM PDT reply actions  

why you heff to be mad? It’s only game?

I miss Bryz.

I miss him too. His comments were so genuine yet so amusing.

How does a top four with Sbisa, Lubo, Lydman, and Kim Johnsonn sound?

by Albert K on Jul 26, 2010 10:16 AM PDT reply actions  

hey I got more idea than Bob does…. Trade for Brett Burns from Minnesota or Nick Schultz…. Minnesota needs scoring and we have plenty of that…. Lupul, Schutlz, 3rd for Burns or Blake for Schutlz and a 4th

by Albert K on Jul 26, 2010 10:49 AM PDT up reply actions
