Comment on Bergevin, Meehan to talk P.K.
the fact that people actually listen to hockeyyinsiderr seriously depresses me
Comment on An honor and anniversary for Scotty
The stick definitely isn't the problem. Besides, long sticks make it tougher to stick handle tight, since the puck is further away from you, which is the reason why forwards usually have shorter sticks than defencemen, since defencemen need to use the stick length to cut off shooting angles and poke check. His equipment is far from the problem, it's just an issue of having a consistent effort level, I would say.
Comment on About last night ... with audio
They cant lose him for nothing, hes still an RFA this summer, thats why they were okay with the one-year arbitration award rather than pushing hard to sign him to a multi-year deal.
