Ya... I didn't realize a guy crying was now the sacred cow of CP. Could have fooled me. I made fun of Smyth relentlessly that day and then his last game against Edmonton when he was on the bench crying with 5 minutes left in the freaking game.
And ya, good player. (did someone say great? lol) I respect his ties to the city and the emotions with which he played the game. But the tv guys now need a certain amount of points or games played in order to relate a story like that? Please. Funny enough, everyone who jumped on those 2 in this thread have never played a game in the NHL, so they are off limits to the likes of you.
I want more stories like this. I believe that Ryan Smyth can handle it and is not some fragile egg shell of a man that a humorous story told at his expense will cause him any real strife. Good on Colby and Whitney, and bring on more stories of hilarious in game chirps please!
