Hopefully he gets his business taken care of so that he can get back here sooner rather than later.<BR/><BR/>What you're saying makes sense. I didn't think he had the rougher side to the game last season, but I attributed that to his being pretty lanky. When I saw he showed up to camp noticeably filled out, I guess I just thought he had worked on that part of his game as well.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07131044718177467718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068511841009454798.post-33148271149676636352008-10-08T01:33:00.000-07:002008-10-08T01:33:00.000-07:00Connie...Teddy Purcell had a job to lose, accordin...Connie...Teddy Purcell had a job to lose, according to Lombardi...and he lost it. Why? Because he hasn't learned that he needs to get his nose dirty along the boards and in the corners for loose pucks instead of just playing on the perimeter, waiting for the play and/or the puck to come to him.<BR/><BR/>It's kind of like what O'Sullivan had to go through. If Purcell takes the criticism to heart and works on the weaknesses in his game, he could be a solid top six right winger.Gann Matsudahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08990462711372807800noreply@blogger.com
