Hard Not To Notice Fleury

from George Johnson of the Calgary Herald,

He’s becoming a kind of rash, this audacious little beggar. And those inside the Calgary Flames’ family who figured the Theo Fleury experiment was nothing more than an annoying lark, a stunt, a PR nuisance destined to quickly run its course, are starting to break out in hives.

“When he got the puck at the dot, I knew he’d score,’’ laughed former teammate Cory Stillman, sitting out for Florida on Sunday night. “Theo doesn’t miss those chances.’‘

Ho hum. Another day at the office. A goal. An assist. Another standing ovation.

Johnson is always an interesting read. Sometimes he overdoes it with the colorful writing, but even then he always has a few choice turns of phrase: “This audacious little beggar.” Perfect way of saying it.
