It could be that the Flames knew they weren't going to be re-upping Pettersen and wanted to have a look at Damiani while strengthening a position they were lacking in for the AHL playoffs.

ISTR the story at the time was that the Wranglers needed a centre and weren't comfortable with Pettersen at that position.

The Dallas Stars re-signed Pettersen to a one-year, two-way deal a few days ago.

I've said before. I feel for his family through this. My aunt works/worked very closely with his dad for years and has a strong friendship with him. His parents are good people

I feel for his parents and family too. But if my kid was accused of this? With evidence? I'd drag him into the Police Department by his hair myself.

I guess I come from a different time. If I'd been a party to something like this and they had evidence? They wouldn't even need a trial. My dad would have made sure they'd never find my body.

Parents definitely covered up the sins of their children in the olden days, it's not a new thing

I come from the same time. And his parents seem like good people from what I've been told too. Parents who raised their kids well.

All things being said, he is still a son, they are still parents. If it were my son, I'd be irate and drag him to the cops myself, but in no way would I disown him. It's easy for us to say we'd kill our kids ourselves, but that's a lie. You wouldn't. You wouldn't beat your child. You'd do alot of shouting, alot of things would be said that couldn't be taken back, but at the end of the day, he's still his son. We'd be beyond devestated.

He made a terrible mistake. But he's still my blood. I would have raised him better, but that doesn't absolve me of my responsibility and heart to be his father.

Just a situation I pray im never in.

We're all different.

My dad once dented the side of a 1977 Cadillac with my skull because he didn't read the note I'd left on the counter saying my buddy and I had gone next door, literally 100 feet, to my neighbour's house, to make holsters for our toy Phasers and Tricorders for our Halloween costumes.

To commit a felony against a woman like this?

They'd have to comb through local construction sites that had fresh concrete.

Ah yes! You see. But the fact of the matter is...I didn't do anything wrong.

I left a note!

I went next door to a trusted neighbour's house to make a Phaser holster for a Halloween costume!

I was something like 8-10. My memory is a little hazy seeing as there is a 'Locke-Skull-Shaped' dent in a 1977 Cadillac out there somewhere.

That might be worth some money some day!

Besides. What should I do? The man is dead.
