I talked to Kelly Hrudey tonight, and told him the story in as concise a manner as possible (there was a large line up I felt bad talking for too long). He thought it was great, as did Kirstie Maclellan (sp?) who was signing books with him.

He said to take it to Ryan Leslie. I spent a solid 3-5 minutes looking for any contact info and gave up.

Seems like it's best if someone reaches out on twitter maybe.

Here's the rub, or two. That reporter from Global has done two stories about Petr; I feel it's like cheating not to contact him and give him the first chance at this story. Although a quick look at Global's website does not show him. I cannot at the moment remember his name!

Second rub. For me I care not one whit re publicity. Maybe this is a newsworthy thing, maybe the Flames might do something, etc. But I really want no part of it. So I happily will hand off this pursuit to anyone who has the interest or time.

I have received two PM's with good leads on Flames contacts. I will share with whoever wants to go with it.

Edit: If the media contacted is that crime reporter from Global, then I am in.
