Addesa and Puppa both (expected) to be there are stunning to see.

Shame that Oates won't be there.

It doesn't look, however, that a lot of members of the team will be present. They listed Mike Poisson, who was the third-string goalie, which indicates that they mentioned most whom they know about. Oates isn't mentioned. Now that he is retired, I would have thought that he would attend. OTOH, a certain father of a Union recruit will be there.


Edit: Didn't see GLM's message.

Would it be inappropriate to boo him?

I wouldn't. Remember that he is also Patrick Koudys's coach. I certainly don't know what happened, but it would not surprise me if SA wasn't interested in Josh, as opposed to the other way around.

Reading the article again, they may only be listing those who will be there on Friday. Conceivably others will be there on Saturday which is when the team will actually be honored.

Unless things change drastically, it sounds like from everyone I've heard from that Oates will not be in attendance regardless of his job with the Lightning interfering or not.

Correct. There are others that will be on Saturday.

I spoke to a friend the other day that is close to Addesa and he said Mike confirmed that he will attend. I hope the crowd welcomes him back with a huge cheer.

From the Dead Tree folks today:

This outdoor game thing will never, never, never, never, never, never, never, ever happen. Nevah evah. Why? Well, for all the reason Ed Weaver lists.

Look, Tim Wilkin, if I want to know the inside poop on Siena basketball, the Useless is my first source. When it comes to hockey, it's the Record or the Gazette. Incidentally, if it's horse racing, I open the New York Post. Geez, was it something I said?
