I don't know if this is from the team. It would have fit if the team sold him off last Fall when he had the hot start, but these guys didn't like him, didn't want him to come back, hate that the stats guys love him, etc.

They do often act as water carriers for the team, but they also have their own individual torches they like to carry, and so often that sees most play where they feel that bloggers and amateurs like us are telling them we know better than them, despite their long run of blathering on about the sport professionally.

I feel like Puljujarvi may be more in the second category, although I will say, I think that the management team is susceptible to that noise from those morons.


The most hilarious thing to me about this whole thing is that Brownlee's entire article is based off of the responses to Rishaug's tweet. Being a sportwriter in Edmonton is hard. Read some tweets, write 500 words about them, get paid. Staples has perfected this particular art.

There's no question that these guys let themselves get used by the team. I also think they love nothing more than to insert themselves into the narrative. I still remember Rishaug tweeting a few years ago about not understanding why Chiarelli was publicly backing up McLellan because none of the mainstream reporters had been talking about firing him, so he didn't think that McLellan's job was in jeopardy.


They do take inserting themselves in to the narrative to a level that almost makes it an art form. One of my massive objections (and there were a lot) to the drivel that was Spector's book on the 1980s Oilers/Flames rivalry was that throughout the book on a subject that isn't short on stories or characters, he constantly felt the need to tell us about the fact he was working with the Gateway, or that he'd been hired by the Edmonton Journal, or that Sather threatened to have him run out of town on a rail (and that he didn't get run out of town on a rail despite running with the story that got him threatened). He wanted to tell his story and there's probably as much or more ink spilt about him in that book as Mark Messier or Lanny McDonald.



"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
