PASabreFan Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I wish PTS was around and could comment on the possibility the WGR site was hacked. That's PTS' gig. I just wonder about the "Jack McKee" typo. This has been a hot "rumor" on that OTHER message board, the one with a million posts a day, 999,990 of which are junk. Those morons have been going back and forth all day about who knew what and when. Someone even claims to know the neighbor of a girl who is a neighbor of Jay, or something, and is in the process of "texting" someone to find out if Jay can play. Good Lord, I give thanks for this message board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayers21 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Is there any confirmation that he got on the plane today? Was he anybody there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 The GR site said he was sick.... I think I'm gonna barf... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fushetti Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Guys, the ONLY sites that say he's not playing are the WGR and WBEN websites... Hellooooo PTS! We've all known about this for 7+ hours. Wouldn't it be all over the hockey and sports websites? Does that sound fishy to anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all the updates are all about Mckee and the "sickness". I think it's real. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corp000085 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I've got plenty of questions... Did he get on the plane? Did he get off the plane? Did he go to a hospital? Which hospital? How come this hasn't been picked up by the AP or CP? IF this is indeed true, why is the sabres PR guy announcing it? If the above is true, where do we send the flowers? Did he get his flu shot with bruce smith? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGM Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Did he get his flu shot with bruce smith? I can't remember where I heard it, but somewhere this morning I read or heard that he has Staph. Staph, for all of us ER watchers (and therefore certified physicians), clearly is a result of a fat desk clerk not washing his hands after using the potty. Shame on you, fatty... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaFan Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 WTF!?! They just announced it on channel 4 that he did not make the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Word is that he definitely did not get on that airplane. If it really is a leg infection (staph infection) then that is pretty serious stuff. This sucks so bad! An infection like that could take weeks to clear up. What's the point of even making the Cup finals if we have 4 D-men on the shelf?!? I'd almost rather lose to Carolina than lose another Cup finals. FU$%*#%#! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjag Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 The bad breaks for this team keep on coming. Jillison playing for 10-20 minutes scares the heck out of me. Carolina will get to change last and you just know they will exploit this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristian Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 It's gonna take an absolute stormer of an effort tonight, but it was going to anyway. I'm done complaining over injuries, bring it on I say!! Got some bad calls to go with that, bring those on too!! Whatever you got, throw it at me, cause I'M READY FOR IT!! GO SABRES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bmwolf21 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I'm not going to panick until the opening faceoff...until then, you never know what is true/rumor, who is exaggerating, what exactly the story is. I'm going to try and stay optimistic and hope that this is Lindy & the Sabres playing mind games with Carolina - they keep saying he's out, not gonna play, didn't make the trip, etc. - then he shows up in the pregame skate and pulls a Willis Reed...

I really think it would take an act of God, a cougar chewing off his leg, or his house burning down to keep him out of the lineup. We'll see, but my gut feeling is that is has to be extremly serious for Jay to miss a game 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Dear Hockey Gods...please let the Sabres find a way to win(with or without McKee). It would be a disgrace to have a team in the Stanley Cup finals who can't sellout their arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a cougar chewed off his leg he would sitll be in there and blocking shots. :lol: Just a thought, wouldn't it be funny if in the end this was just another ToddKaz rumor...it sure sounds like it.

inkman Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 a cougar chewing off his leg... Maybe that is what they mean by "sick"...although I think lower body injury would have been more appropriate. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjsbu96 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I realize that there is not a lot of hockey coverage in the States - mainly b/c they don't care - but someone would have picked up on this by now...or at a minimum, TSN. The fact that only WGR and Channel 4 have the 'scoop' does just not add up for me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Well the radio I've been listening too has said he did not make the flight, but they have a clip of him saying he will be meeting up with the team in Carolina sometime today. Who knows how this is playing out, maybe he started to get that flu that the oilers had, or maybe his wife needed him to do some yard work around the house yesterday, or his kid had a dance recital or a big t-ball game he didn't want to miss (this is all assuming he is married with kids though) so the team said he could meet them their instead of fly with them.
