Fluery will produce, bottom-line.
Everyone I'm sure is well aware of his "personal problems" but I sometimes get the feeling that the media makes a bigger deal of it all than it really needs to be. I actually found his on-ice antics last year to be funny [the infamous chicken dance
].
Do you think that 10-20 years down the road he will be remembered as a "character"? Somebody who might have had some troubles but brought some 'colour' to the game?
Isn't that what Eddie Shore remembered as? Or Don Cherry?
Mainstream sucks,

I agree. Another reason he'll do well: Sutter. I think he recognized that his personnel surrounding were probably as important, if not more important, as his geographic surroundings. Although Chicago has no shortage of great Irish pubs, a terrific nightlife, and the media can be a bit pointed (not as bad as NY or Vancouver though), I think playing West Coast hockey, and playing for a Sutter will be the best medicine to calm him down a little.
As Regs suggested, hopefully he only calms down a little. Mainstream does suck.

Fleury's deal is worth a reported $4 million a year over 2 years. Good to see him stick around for another year.
Is he back soon?
I just read on the Poolexpert.com website that Theo Fleury's suspension is over. Is he coming back soon?
Also noticed that if you do a player search on the NHL.com website for Theo, he isn't even listed there.
Strange.

Theo has to go through a five step program for being a junky. The first two are in rehab ( I think) and the third allows him to go to the games and watch and be in the dressing room. The fourth allows him to practice on his own, and the fifth allows him to pracitce with his teamates. After he has completed these steps he is allowed to return to the line-up immediately. I heard next week.
Hot off the Press
Just got this off the Chicago Blackhawks website:
Contrary to reports Wednesday, Blackhawks winger Theo Fleury remains suspended indefinitely by the NHL and continues both on-ice and off-ice workouts on his own. Fleury did not travel with the team on its current seven-game road trip.

There are so many things wrong with that Im not quite sure where to start
I know
Let's start with the "pound for pound" part.
Is that per pound of crack, cocaine, or bud?

Fact: Fleury in his prime is, pound for pound, the best player in the NHL!

Re: Wholly Crap
Yes...I have. VMSL rehab center. They set you up with a cot inside the Adanac changing rooms and your there for 3 days. First day you go on a spiritual walk with the Can Lady and clean the spits off the floors. Second day you take Jimmy Holliday and his buddies to see Harry Potter to test your responsibilty and behaviour without the influence of Pot. And last you get brought into the Adanac Co-Op and the VMSL brass test your will by seeing if you can resist a quick fix from one of the locals.
I heard in a Mike Smith (Chicago GM) interview that there are two doctors assigned by the NHL that monitor his process and that fleury is doing well and he is training twice a day on his own. Next weekend he could be allowed to play but the doctors have to approve it.
