Dear Tonya Harding: The Vancouver Canucks need your help!

Dear Tonya I hope all has been well for you since you have treated so rudely the 1994 Olympics. That wasn't such a great year for us either, and I don't see much difference between you having Nancy Kerrigan knee-capped and Mark Messier skating across the ice at the final whistle in game 6 of the Cup final to sneak attack and breakTrevor Linden's ribs.

When Jake faced off against MEN his game fell apart as everyone who two brain cells to rub together predicted it would, and so with 5th overall we ended up with 9g in THE AHL, and a guy who is faced with the mamoth task of re-build his whole game from the ground up, and this is a...
