The article is posted here.
Below is an excerpt from the article.
“Now before everyone gets their guard up and says Regehr is [...]

Fireman Ed Should Pour a Stiff Drink
Rex Ryan may be the king of the F-bombs, but he better use as many as he can during the regular season. The Jets won’t be making the playoffs.
The Jets used up all their luck last year. There are no playoff-bound cakewalk games at the end of this season’s schedule. Opposing kickers are all out [...]

Revis Island can be a lonely place for receivers. At the moment it’s also a lonely place for a Darrelle Revis. The man who was hands-down the best defensive player in the league last year is not practicing or spending time with his teammates, and it HAS to be a frustrating way to follow up [...]

The first is a response article to the issue of having either a clear cut #1 goalie or two decent goalies and which situation is better.
You can find that article here.
The second [...]

 After watching the ‘Hawks appear to decimate the Flyers in Game 5, I couldn’t help but think that the last few games had seemed so different from the beginning of the series. The ‘Hawks just seemed more aggressive with the puck and appeared to control the play more. Now if I was a TV announcer, [...]

 It’s a topic we all love discussing, and we all have different opinions about. Some of us would rather see a pure poacher in the lineup while others believe that target men are the most effective and still more believe that a striker who plays well with the ball at his feet is essential.

 For those that read any of my analysis columns during the NFL season, you’ll know that I trust offensive & defensive statistics such as DVOA and DYAR as created by the Football Outsiders.
