Did you guys read Mirtle’s coverage of this concussion thing?

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/reggie-flemings-story/article1404659/

This quote was on Deadspin, Jesus Christ:

All the wars of all the nights of the past suddenly rage through Reggie Fleming’s mind and, spinning, he attacks Harris, fists up and swinging, the crowd shrieking. Fleming misses with a wild right hook. Harris slams him in the face with a right, a left, drives a right deep in to Fleming’s belly. Fleming gasps, doubles over and Harris slams his head back with an uppercut. The crowd screams with delight. The other players watch. Fleming swings blindly at Harris but Harris moves in, punches him furiously in the face and head and hurls him against the boards. Harris pulls Fleming’s jersey over his head, tosses him to the ice, jumps on him and flails away. Blood appears on Fleming’s jersey, spreading fast like ink on a blotter. Harris doesn’t let up and Fleming is helpless. It’s brutal and sickening to watch and finally it’s broken up. To boos and thrown debris, Fleming leaves the ice, gasping for breath, blood pouring down his battered face. He heads to the dressing room, alone, closes the door softly behind him, and sits on the bench. From far away come the crowd noises. He says nothing, takes off his jersey, throws it in a corner. He turns back, closes his eyes for a few seconds. He opens them and looks at his hands, turning them slowly. They’re trembling.

    “Sometimes,” he says softly and haltingly, “Sometimes I wish … I wish I could control myself just once. It’s … it’s the kids. I go home and they see the cuts and bruises and—” He doesn’t finish the sentence. He lifts his hands to his face. For a long time he’s quiet and then, from behind the red swollen hands, a long, shuddering sigh. In the morning, the children will see him. He knows what they will ask. And he knows, as always, he won’t have an answer.

Shouting match? I made a joke about the relocation, and didn’t think about it too much. Obviously with what he went through during the summer, it was a poor choice. And if you see this Odin, I’m sorry.

Wilson always goes too long with the “hot” goalie. He needs to get them in a regular rotation. Tosk can play well for short stretches. Monster seems to need a slightly lighter load. No one gets more than 3 consecutive starts the rest of the year. Hopefully that way, you avoid injury issues and if you time it right, you avoid the inconsistency.

Good for Mike Grier getting that goal though. Props to his mom, RIP.

Thing is, Toskala wasn’t ‘hot.’ Phoenix was pretty bad.
