Good quotes by claude lemieux
I had forgotten that Pat Burns had let him rot out there

Laughing heartily at the Babs quote there. "You're from Western Canada...don't do that."

Also: on this "panel" we have everyone's favorite members of the DoPS. Good to know. Good to know.

Also, also: Pat Burns not sending the AT out is just so hilarious. I work with soccer (dive-a-palooza) and wrestling (faux injury to get a breather), and nothing bugs me like having to run out there and take care of a pansy who's trying to draw a call. More in soccer than anything. Game this year I had to run about 70 yards to get to an athlete, I got there and they were brushing themselves off and laughing about it. HAHAHAHAHAHAH...not funny.

Also, also...also...I like what Ward had to say in regard to it being clutch and grab hockey. When the refs aren't calling anything, and your team is down, desperation sets in and you look to get their attention. Not Claude Lemieux levels of diving, but perhaps going down on a pick play instead of just running into the guy. I get it.

FWIW....

My son's soccer coach has that "Western Canadian" attitude towards diving. Basically, if you blatantly dive, you're sitting.

Wow, Babs coaches youth soccer too?! The man can do EVERYTHING.
