Mark Madden has a small mind. He doesn't think outside the box. He has his little world view and he stubbornly sticks to it and nobody can say otherwise because he'll bulldoze you either with his loud microphone or his massive Twitter account.
Ludicrous? Really? How does he know one way or the other?
Madden has a real knack for broadcasting his OPINION and making everything think it's fact. Sheer volume and a deep voice tends to do that. Yet it's still just OPINION.
Maybe it's ludicrous to think it was explicitly stated and planned at that meeting, but how do we know it wasn't said in code or innuendo? All sorts of things can be communicated without actually speaking the words.
"Anyone gets near the crease, we make them pay."
Something like that. Something even directed at Sid.
All I'm saying is it's not ludicrous to think the unthinkable was discussed at that meeting. And Madden himself knows that when everything is at stake, hockey teams and players can be vicious. He himself referenced Clarke and Kharlamov in an earlier tweet.
But since Madden has chimed in on the issude, I guess that makes it official Pittsburgh sports canon, doesn't it? Now there's no questioning it. The Super Genius has said his peace. It's a non-issue. Hurting Sid or any other player was NOT discussed at that meeting. Purely LUDICROUS.
Bull.
Madden doesn't know one way or the other.
And while I'm at it, I want to know why Rob Rossi got 20 thumbs down and only 2 thumbs up (one of the ups is from me) on this video:

That's a worse thumbs-up-to-thumbs-down ratio than the average Justin Bieber video. Obviously some of those are from Caps fans, but the comments tell us at least a few Pens fans have chimed in negatively as well.
Pens fans don't want to hear the truth now? Pens fans are too afraid to let out a little righteous indignation? You mean we've all become freaking snowflakes?
So sad.
Rossi went over the top in his column when he accused the Capitals of deciding at a players-only team meeting to hurt Crosby. That’s ludicrous.
