A Carolina Hurricanes blog with occasional news about the rest of the NHL.
DearJack,
How's college? Did those keggers work out for you? I hope you enjoyed drinking cheap beer through a plastic funnel. Drinking champagne from Lord Stanley's Cup is probably overrated anyway.
On a separate note, I hope you enjoy having your rights traded to Pittsburgh. Do you like motorcycles?
your pal,
Red and Black Hockey
ps --- Ann Arbor is a whore.

Mudcrutch, in DLee's defense (not that he can't do that himself, but I think he's at work right now and nowhere near a computer -- besides which, it's always a pain to have to explain a joke to someone who doesn't "get it," so I'll spare him that discomfort), this "Rhetorical" letter is written in the wry style of The Rhetorical Letter Writer, and explicitly refers to a common perception around here (by "here," I mean among 'Canes fans) that Johnson's motives were more a snub of the Hurricanes (like Lindros of the Nordiques, on a less dramatic scale) than an expressed desire to Stay In School.
Or, DLee could have been in an especially snarky mood today. It's his blog, after all. He can say what he wants.
I've never seen that site before (The Rhetorical Letter Writer), but it's a riot. Thanks for the tip!
I'm afraid that I am with Nuts4Pucks on this one. It absolutely appalls me to see so many ripping apart a kid for *gasp* actually wanting to stay in college. And as a D-man, J.J. couldn't have made a better decision. The defenseman position totally requires as much college/juniors/minor league training as possible...quite possibly more-so than goaltender.
But, as Cason pointed out, knowing how J.R. tends to have the occasional short fuse, lest we all pray that the Steeltown rumors regarding Mr. Johnson aren't true...
I've adopted a wait and see attitude. No use in getting bent out of shape until we know something for sure.
