Another Twitter Attack

from Michael Russo of the Star Tribune,

Agent Allan Walsh continues to call out the Wild via his Twitter account.

Less than a week after tweeting that coach Todd Richards is “treating [Petr] Sykora with less respect than a rookie,” Walsh sent out a string of Sykora tweets from http://www.twitter.com/walsha Friday reciting statistics, such as 302 career goals, 677 career points, 10 consecutive 20-plus goal seasons ... “leader, winner, intense competitor.”

Although this wasn’t a direct attack, make no mistake: Walsh is taking aim at Richards. Sykora has been scratched five games in a row, most recently Thursday in St. Louis when Richards dressed James Sheppard, a scratch the previous four games.

Sykora lost his edge, it was evident when he was a healthy scratch for most of the playoffs and largely ineffective for the 2nd half of the season. When the Penguins didn’t sign him, he should have went back to Europe. Naslund and Straka knew when it was time to hang it up, Gary Roberts and John LeClair needed a ilttle prodding via not being claimed on unconditional waivers. Sykora should be happy that he hasn’t gone that route yet.
