Damn, apparently no one wants to play with me! Kariya gets traded to Nashville after I leave, and Heatley heads to Ottawa once he hears I'm coming to Atlanta! Am I really that scary? *laughs ( Read more... )

So I got traded again. How's Atlanta this time of year? I had fun in Nashville, but... things might have been a little awkward this fall, so maybe a trade is better. Lots of things still have to be decided, but at least I know where I'll be so that I can decide them. Good luck to all the UFAs. Hope you guys find good homes ( Read more... )

Whoops, Schaef's journal reminded me that I have to wish Reds a happy birthday. It's only four minutes past midnight! Hehe sorry Wade. Hope you had fun today! :)

Hey, I almost forgot, happy birthday, Vladi! It's not midnight here yet, so it's still technically your birthday! ;) Hope it was a good one.

Congrats, Team Canada! Michaella and I watched the broadcast this morning, and holy fuck, you guys. Are you trying to give all your countrymates heart attacks??

Congrats to all my friends and teammates (current and former!) who've been chosen to represent their countries at the World Championships! I'm not flying all the way over to Austria, but Michaella and I will be watching on TV. Good luck! :)

Back down in Texas. The weather's nicer here than Ottawa. I had a really good Christmas with Michaella and the girls, and Michaella's family came to visit too. It was really great, and also gave my bruises time to heal. Before anyone asks, yes, I'm okay, and no, I'm not gonna talk about it. Just say I did something that needed to be done.

Happy birthday, Alfie! Even though you're not my captain any more, I still think of you as a good friend, and a great guy. Hope it's a good one! Don't do anything I wouldn't do... Which I suppose gives you free rein for just about anything, eh? ;) Have a great day, and I'll try to catch you around sometime ( Read more... )
