Lennay Kekua. Refused to do an interview. Didn't even respond to his inquiries.

Tim Panaccio: Disappointed in Pronger
- tpanaccio

Why would you be disappointed?

If you had agreed not to ask him any questions related to his concussion, there's absolutely nothing he's going to offer up that will be newsworthy.

Hell, the media should be happy that they don't have to show up to write down the 100 tired cliches that he would regurgitate (like any other NHL player - not picking on Pronger).

Why not just write the story yourself?

Pronger thinks that Giroux will be an excellent captain. All the players look up to him. His hard work is an inspiration to the team.

Sprinkle in the word "warrior" a few times, and you've got your little story, hours before deadline.

With Tim, it's not about Pronger or Giroux (or the Flyers, or the NHL...). It's all about Tim.

Disappointed in YOU, Tim. When I first started reading your articles, I gave you the benefit of doubt because I didnt want to come across as "another angry Flyers fan," but I cant understand why you feel so high and mighty to write the articles you do. Just baffled you make a living doing what you do

Should have just tried to get some other former captains' views. Do you have contact with Eric Desjardins or Kevin Dineen?

Hold up.

Did I just read this and about 3 other posts right?

These guys are actually glad that Prongs may not live a normal life ever again?

I'm the biggest Crosby hater out there. He's a "slimebag through and through". But I was rooting for him and hoping he could play hockey again just as hard as any other Penguin fan was because nobody should want to see a player get hurt at all, let alone sustain a career threatening or possibly career threatening injury. ESPECIALLY a concussion of this severity.

People like you that say Pronger "got what was coming to him" or that he deserved this in some twisted way show me that some people just don't get the big picture.

We don't know what will happen to Pronger. He might live like Primeau with good days and bad days FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE. And you're content with that? You view that as payback?

How disgusting.

That's heartless. I could argue you're a bigger dirtbag than Pronger

Awww more homosexuality masked as hatred. It's ok just admit that you get wood when you watch the kid.
- Sell My Monkey


Yes, obviously anyone who shows any dislike for the marquee player of a rival team is actually a closet homosexual with a crush on that player. I like your logic.

It seems that the anger is because Pronger did talk to select media, rather than the assembled throng.

I personally wouldn't have written a diatribe about it, but I can understand being miffed at the Flyers website being able to get the interview while the rest of the media was shunned.

Disappointed in TIM.

Eklund, please do all us happy to be here readers a solid and remove this guy. He's total selfish medialite garbage.

Bill Metzer, now that's a man that deserves all the flyers blogging respects. Give him Tim's spot.

We'd all be much happier.

The same company owns NBC and the Flyers and they have a promo that says the Flyers will be seeking revenge from the Pens for last year's playoff loss.

The guy has post concussion syndrome, a busy life, & it wasn't a seriously pressing issue. Lay off it Tim.
