The Latest On The Sharks

from David Pollak of Working the Corners at the Mercury News,

I do have it on good authority that there won’t be any big-time distractions between now and 11 a.m. Thursday, so don’t hold your breath on those Dany-Heatley-to-San-Jose rumors leading anywhere just yet.

I also have it on good authority that Sharks GM Doug Wilson isn’t at all happy with the efforts in some parts of the media to portray him as a hockey exec who promised there would be major changes and has yet to deliver on that promise. Some of those same stories have suggested that means the pressure is on him to up the ante for Dany Heatley and do it in a hurry.

more on the Sharks and J.R….

thanks to a KK reader for the pointer...

Don’t worry that hard hitting journalist (and I am joking) David Pollak knows as much about hockey as a 12 yr old, and never asks Doug Wilson or his Shark buddies any tough questions, has little too any knowledge what is actually going on with the Sharks.

While I agree with Pollak that Heatley won’t be traded to the Sharks anytime in the near future (and probably never), Pollak himself is too busy to actually ask Wilson point blank questions, because Wilson won’t answer them or so Pollak says.  The San Jose Media in general gives Wilson a big time pass because “he Wilson is a nice guy”, and besides if your critical of the Sharks they might take away your food privledges.

Take this entire article with a grain of salt, because Pollak is too busy talking to Red Wing Excutives too forum his own views as to what is actually going on inside the Sharks organization.

But calling him a 12-year-old is pretty childish, don’t you think.  Obviously, you don’t read his posts very often because he did ask the questions.  What is he supposed to do, beat the info out of Wilson?

Anyways, please post your opinions on his board as well so he can at least know what you’re saying.  I’m sure he’d like to hear them.
