Marian Hossa is so allergic to his equipment, he has to retire

[sbb122]

Seriously, fuck this cap circumvention shit. That's all it is. These teams need to be punished for these long term contracts. Between compliance buyouts and LTIR for a fucking rash it's becoming a joke.

Maybe Marian just needs a good balm?

Not sure if he'll be a first ballot induction, but he's definitely a hall of famer in my opinion.

I bet Bryan Berard will have his eye on the vote.

I don't dislike Hossa, but I'll never forget either.

I should add that for the longest time, I didn't think Marian Hossa was a hall of fame candidate. However, I think the bar has been lowered in the last several years that now Hossa should probably get in. The Hockey Hall of Fame has now become the Hockey Hall of Very Good.

Is this because of the Joey Moss thing? I never thought of you as being that type of intolerant person dash

lol - Hey, I'm a big Joey Moss fan, that guy is one of if not the best part of the Edmonton Oilers.

A day doesn't go by where I don't wonder what the early-00's Leafs could've done had they had a healthy and fully-developed Bryan Berard.

Man that sucked so bad.

Kronwall played 57 games last year on one knee.
Methot had his finger chopped off and came back to make a Cup run.
Hossa has a skin rash and he's out for the year? Pft!

This ain't baseball, cupcake! Put your skates on and get your ass out there!

Was Kronwall or Methot going to do it for a million dollars Dr. Evil?

I can't speak for anyone else, but I would definitely play 82 hockey games with a skin rash for a million dollars, #2.

I ain't mad. I might too. One difference, though, is that Hossa didn't call it a day.

so why you on him for not suckin it up?

He is gonna try and come back right? more power to him

If you want to pile on the BHawks, more power to you ... its sketchy timing wise no doubt. But i think we have to take Hossas word for this. Its been described as a progressive thing and hes been dealing with it for a number of years now

This.

I've got no beef with Hossa, I want the Hawks to have the cap shoved down their throat with a rusty pitch fork so hard they bleed for the next decade.
