When Wilson says "I felt" he is saying he was the only one who that pressure and stress was "getting to." Those are his own words.<br /><br />I believe Joe Thornton. If Joe really was "lashing out at people" then it would have been made public by the people he allegedly lashed out at, or it would have been seen and discussed at or after games, or the GM would have made sure to announce it and given a warning to Joe for inappropriate behavior so the fans would know it's being addressed. Even though hockey has changed rules so much over the years, fights, checking, name calling, is still an exciting part of the game. I don't know much about Wilson, but he sounds like an idiot and Joe Thornton can COME BACK TO BOSTON any time.GetThemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199998926590078915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-74958342722601303092015-03-14T12:03:56.641-04:002015-03-14T12:03:56.641-04:00Sounds like they stripped the "c" unanno...Sounds like they stripped the "c" unannounced for the purpose of busting him down in perceived rank or status. A hotheaded moment over something someone said that sounded like something the "C" player would have done or said.<br /><br />A sponser wanted more attention perhaps from a single player. A promotional ploy.<br /><br />"We're going to go young..."<br /><br />A leaderless group.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
