The NHL Thread

HA!
I like the uniforms for the Original Six. I also like the uniforms from the Expansion era. I did see Wayne Gretzky ( Los Angeles Kings) playing on the FLYERS's ICE. There was a huge snow storm in Philly. So the Spectrum open the doors.  No charge to watch the game in person. Of course I put my snow coat. Let's Go FLYERS. I don't remember who won the game.

Yes the original 6 were good. As they should be.

If you don't remember who won the game the Plyers most likely lost. Sounds like fun either way.

Great reaction by Hart. @FISH  He stopped it initially but his momentum pushed it in as he was turning.

Pens win!

Dear Mr. Price, NEVER speak with the news media. They are big fat liars.

Koivu was in the hospital with an eye injury.
They had him in a darkened room because of light sensitivity issues.
A reporter found his room and took a picture of him.
He used a flash...

We were doing our job," Journal de Montreal sports editor Denis Poissant said.

In this case, the job involved a Journal reporter and photographer entering the Montreal hospital where Canadiens captain Saku Koivu had been admitted a day earlier after sustaining a serious eye injury from a high stick.

Koivu left Game 3 of the Canadiens-Carolina Hurricanes series and was rushed to hospital after being cut near the eye.

Without Koivu's permission, the photographer took his picture. And, making it worse, a flash was used. Doctors had told Koivu to avoid bright lights. The photo, displayed on the front page of le Journal on Friday, showed Koivu attempting to protect his damaged eye from the flash.

Needless to say, Koivu is upset and the club is furious. Le Journal also was criticized by columnist Réjean Tremblay of La Presse, as well as Stu Cowan, the sports editor of The Gazette, who wrote, "With the extent of his injury uncertain and his family obviously worried, I think Koivu deserved some privacy at the hospital when he asked for it."

But, George Kalogerakis, le Journal's managing editor, yesterday defended the decision to take the picture and run it on the front page.

"We believed it was a matter of public interest to go and find him, and show people his injury," he said. "For us, it was something in the public limelight and it was an issue we had to look into."

But what about the potential of causing further damage to Koivu's eye by using a flash?

"He didn't tell us that [he was to avoid bright lights]" Kalogerakis said. "And I don't remember reading that it was a problem."

Of course, if the photographer had asked permission from Koivu to take the picture, he might have been told about the potential danger of a flash.
