1) Read the article. Apparently the news people thought it was enough of a snub to write about it.
2) Hockey has a very high percent of players that are very dedicated to the local area and charities. They are not stuck up like other pro sports celebrities. He's no patron saint of hockey.
3) Sid has been to the finals before and he knows how it goes. He has been rude in the way he handles other teams and players during the playoffs. Very un NHL-like. Sorry, its a fact. Does he play great? Yes. Ddi he disrespect NHL tradition? Yes. Hey, I wanted the Bruins to win so I didn't have a horse in this race.
4) I gave credit where credit is due. The Pens won through better play. Try not to let your home team bias blind you to an honest appraisal.
You can call me homer if you want, but again, your information is without merit and fact. Am I expected to believe you because you simply state such generalities such as being "stuck up" or "being rude" This sounds like high school gossip. How do you know he isn't affiliated with charities? As far as the article, the hockey season is over, what else are they going to write about? This crap will be over in a week, but the Pens names will be on it forever. Here is more a story http://www.detnews.com/article/20090613/OPINION03/906130412/1128/sports0103/Some-Red-Wings-fans-didn-t-act-like-champions But I guess being late shaking hands is much more offensive.
