It’s strange…this world of technology that is at our fingertips that I should hear this rumor…
The Devils called Steve Sullivan (Nashville Predators). I kind of scratched my head when I read that. My only response was, “What??? Am I reading this correctly?”
It was almost like seeing Ray Emery say he was signing with Philly BEFORE the rumors started.
Once again…technology at our fingertips…especially when hockey players start to use it…you can find out a lot of information before the rest of the world does. It was almost the same as finding out that Chris Drury was going to sign with the New York Rangers BEFORE the Rangers knew anything about it.
Sullivan received the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy a couple of weeks ago for his perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to hockey after a successful comeback after sitting out the entire 2007-2008 season due to a back injury. He returned on January 10, 2009.
Sullivan was drafted by the New Jersey Devils in 1994 (233rd overall).
Sully returning to the Devils? Just like Shanny returning to the Devils…
What’s Lou got going on there?
Rumors are abounding that Lou is letting two Devil lifers (Brian Gionta and John Madden) walk tomorrow at noon. Replace one NJD draft pick and a NJD free agent signing (two players that have spent their entire career with the Devils) with two NJD draft picks that ended up being traded away earlier in their careers…you know I’m still scratching my head with this one.
If the rumor is true that Sully got a call from the Devils…and we all know that Lou said he’s calling Shanny’s agent because he’s not waiting around to hear from Shanny first…what exactly is the game plan for the Devils this season?
I’m more interested in finding out who the coach is going to be! Isn’t that really more important?
