Goldman delves further into the Mason/Garon situation in Columbus

 

Ken Hitchcock met with Mathieu Garon and Steve Mason together on Sunday morning, less than 24 hours after the team suffered a self-induced early implosion against the Colorado Avalanche. To summarize what the conversation entailed, Hitchcock had this choice quote for Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch:

 

"Win and you're in," Hitchcock said. "That's where we're at now. If a guy wins, he keeps on playing." (Source)

It’s that wonderful time of the year, where we are all supposed to be in the spirit of giving.  As much as I’d love to give you all guaranteed winners so you have some extra spending money on Boxing Day, I’m quite busy rushing around trying to find adequate Christmas gifts, as I have left my shopping till the last week... again. Enough of this fluff talk, let’s get right to it. If you want to win money I’d bet on my dog before putting money on me... Happy Holidays!!!
