Multi-Pronged Attitude

Touching on topics related to Chris Pronger, and an interesting experiment drafting only IR players…
The first prong, his hiring to be on the NHL Player Safety Department.
It was rumored earlier in the week by a few people including Nicholas J. Cotsonika (Yahoo!'s Puck Daddy), "Chris Pronger may join NHL Player Safety; wouldn't rule on Flyers" and then it became official on the 10th of October. ESPN's Scott Burnside wrote, "Pronger hiring is completely baffling". Inside the Burnside piece there is a column by Pierre LeBrun, who plays the contra opinion side of things.
Puck Daddy boils it down to two issues, Pronger is still paid by the Flyers, and he was a very, very, very bad boy on the ice so how could be on the Player Safety Department which hands out supplemental discipline. As Burnside indicates, "[The] league willfully creates an optically bad situation."
