The SBP Archives - Your less than frequent dose of SBP!

Coincidentally enough when I was thinking about how fast Jason Spezza has been tearing up the leader board since returning from his groin injury, the NHL announced Spezza was the best player for the month of December, racking up 25 points in 14 games, of which only one did he fail to register a point. That's a terrific pace that could easily put him in Art Ross consideration. I'd like everyone who wanted Spezza traded to raise their hand. You were backing him all along? Perfect.

I remember someone telling me they had CFRA on and Lowell Green was all mad after the Sens lost game 5 of the Stanley Cup final. His remedy to bring Ottawa the Cup next year? Trade Ray Emery and Jason Spezza. I have no idea how these idiots though the Sens managed to get to the Stanley Cup final in the first place. With all due respect to Mike Fisher, Antoine Vermette and Dean McAmmond, the main reason Ottawa got there was Daniel Alfredsson, Dany Heatley and of course, Mr. Jason Spezza.

Ottawa signed him to a new contract this year and what's scary is he hasn't even reached his prime yet. The turnovers he's been known for have come by less & less, and the coach isn't afraid to try him out on the penalty kill or the dying minutes of a game when a lead has to be protected.

Nice job, fancy pants! SBP's support has never wavered on you.
