"AVs Dumb Move"

The Flyers may have made the right moves for free agency, but the AVS must have made the strangest.


They signed Brad May, who used to play for Vancouver. If you recall two years ago, Brad May basically put a bounty on the head of Colorado forward Steve Moore who took out Vancouver star player Mark Naslund. The next game between the two teams Todd Bertuzzi decided he would be the one to make Moore pay. He was a bit overzealous and broke Moore's neck. He was slapped on the wrist by the NHLfor 20 games. Of course it would have been longer (at least I hope) had there been a season. I think the ruling to let him back for opening night is awful.

Season ticket holders are pissed and are not renewing and Colorado is getting flooded with angry emails. I don't blame them. May is basically taking Moore's roster spot. Not only that May was named in a suit that Moore (who likely will never play hockey again) in a suit. This on top of losing the best player in the world.


It just makes no sense to me. I mean players like May are a dime a dozen.
