Put the shovel down, get out of the hole hoss...

So ESPN has a new article about whether or not Marians decision to jump ship to goto Detriot was a good or bad one, and they asked him about the comments he made to piss off Pittsburgh fans....

"Of course I didn't mean it that way," Hossa said Thursday. "Because they still have a really good young team, an excellent team. They're going to be battling on top for sure. I just felt coming to this dressing room and playing with future Hall of Famers … Just being here in this dressing room with them and spending the season with them and learning something new from those guys also brought me here.
Hmm... Yet another slap in the face to some of the younger stars in pittsburgh... Cause chances are none of them are ever gonna be in the hall of fame... And you know, maybe you could have learned something talking to the owner... Who is a hall of famer... Who is probably the 2nd best (some, may argue the best) hockey player ever...HERE is the entire article

In other news, my question to Dave Molonari got posted on the Post-Gazettes web site... Next game the Baby Pens play the Philadelphia Phantoms on Saturday, so it should be interesting to see how Janne fairs now that he isn't fresh off a plane from the other side of the planet and has actually had a chance to practice with some of these guys. I'm still trying to find a picture or something of Janne sportin the Baby Pens Uni, but it seems that generating Janne news out of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton is more difficult than out of Finland in the offseason, I may have to go do my own investigative reporting...

Update: Could Ravenstahl be seeking reparations from the Slovak government for the Hossa debacle? Read the Article HERE
