EDMONTON, AB – The NHL released the King Clancy Memorial Trophy nominees for all 32 teams on Tuesday, including Darnell Nurse representing the Edmonton Oilers for the fourth consecutive season.
The King Clancy Trophy is awarded to the player who best exemplifies leadership qualities on and off the ice and has made a noteworthy humanitarian contribution in his community.
While he clearly does some real good in the community, the timing could not be more amusing.

You know, when he first started I liked him. Then he sold his soul to Kevin Lowe. His initiation must have been so greasy.

What I am saying is obvious, but it’s pretty sad for a “reporter” to hope for another team not to make the playoffs (when both can make it without harming the other). Let alone in the same province where economic benefits accrue to the entire Province if both teams make it (and theoretically providing the possibility of a BOA). Like really sad. His house needs to be egged.

Not just a reporter, he was a past president of the professional hockey writers association. You would think he would be aware of some sort of standards.

Remember his outrage at Tkachuk lining up Kassian?
Not a peep about dirty Darnell. Honestly he should be ashamed but I don't think he has a conscience after he sold his soul. What a pathetic man.

You don't usually get to be the president of a writers' associaton by being professional. You get there by playing petty office politics full-time while all the other writers are busy writing.

pretty sure he means that if Minny and the Blues dont win in Calgary isnt likely to mess this up, so if they want in they best do it themselves.
Spector is an odd fella though left wing lap dog who consistently champions violent hockey think he is one of those spazzy nerd types

That screams participation ribbon to me.

That was a google search I am both happy and horrified for. Probably should not have been on my work computer.
The review that came up was glorious, more so in the reference to sofa loving, given the poster who sent me on that journey.

All I can get
|
Nurse was just nominated because everyone in Edmonton thinks he's a real nurse.
Runner-up in voting was Connor McDavid with his "Wear a Helmet When Playing Basketball" Public Service campaign.
