Chris Pronger recently went on the Dan Patrick radio show and ripped many European players, especially Jaromir Jagr, for playing so hard in the Olympics, but so obviously not playing with that same level of intensity in NHL games.
I was reminded of that because Jagr has been on an absolute TEAR since the season restarted--including 2 goals and the game winner against the Sens IN Ottawa!
I've heard rumors about some other players taking shifts off and not really playing full out. Which players have that rep from your teams?

You're in a desert, walking along in the sand when all of a sudden you look down and see a tortoise. It's crawling towards you. You reach down and flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over. But it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.
I too am pulling for the Senators in Bullitt's honor. I have listened to him support the team for many years and I would like to see someone be able to cheer the victors and really have earned it.
