Wild Quick to Defend Theodore
General Manager Grant Farhall was quick to defend his new #1 goalietender on the heels of critical comments from Hurricanes GM Hanna Storm. Farhall met with the media after a brisk Wednesday practice and came to Theodore's defence.
"I'm not even sure what my collegaue is implying with his comments. Let's just say that Jose has a very loyal and passionate fan base that follow his exploits in the CPHL with the same passion they bring to their daily "business dealings". I'm sure they will find Mr. Storm's comments interesting so I've taken the liberty of forwarding them to the parties he is commenting on, along with his home address, in case they have a desire to chat in person with him about the comments."
Farhall went on to say that he was surprised that Theodore's fans wouldn't be receiving a warmer welcome.
"Frankly I would have thought that they would have welcomed any fans with open arms. Maybe between Jose's fans and the loyal fan base the Wild already has, we could have actually had a good crowd in Carolina.".
The war of words looks to continue...
