Say it ain't so Morrow!

Well folks, here at the Prairie Puck we've been handing praise and blessings (to whatever capacity our abilities allow) to Brendan Morrow, captain of the Dallas stars and native of Carlyle, SK. We regret to inform you that he will be out for a good long time. NHL.com (who we love) had this article on the subject. I've looked for a quote from the man himself but, like Theoren Fleury, came up short.

It is at this point I would like to point out a few very loosely related facts:
1. We love Theoren Fleury. No one celebrates like he used to. And no one leaves the NHL to play in Ireland quite like him.
2. He's really short and was really awesome, which we like.
3. He worked a hockey camp our own Jordan Toppings attended, which means that once we get ahold of him he will do an interview for sure.
4. He's from Oxbow, SK and played his Junior hockey in Moose Jaw, so obviously he is one of the coolest to ever lace on the blades.
5. We're gonna do a story on him right away here.
6. All of that was just to make sure you weren't gonna jump on us for hating Theoren Fleury. We definitely don't. Alcoholic jokes just wouldn't be funny. We love him like John Daly loves Hooters. Now, back to the story.

The injury is apparently "a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee that will require surgery." Shitty. Ahh well, we'll still find a way to get you in here anyway Mr. Morrow. When you come back, we know you'll be just fine.
