Way to go Ray!

I think this is my 3rd posting about Ray Emery and his overall lack of intelligence throughout this season. The latest fiasco has ended up costing him a day's pay. Granted, it's a measly $14K out of his $2.75 million that he'll earn this year, but it's about all the Sens can do without sending him packing either on waivers or trading him for a bag of hockey pucks. There have been plenty of fans, media-types, and bloggers who have voiced their displeasure with his foolishness and even tried to come up with solutions to this on-going problem. I always enjoy what my fellow Sens Army soldier has to say over at Scarlett Ice. We're talkin' bout practice?! Yes, Allen Iverson. We are. But we're also talking about an underlying issue that has surrounded Ray over the last few years that he's been in O-Town. After all, he was returning from a binge weekend in Las Vegas when he decided to pop by to see if his team needed him around. Nah, that's OK Ray, we'll just throw up a Mr. Siv so you can shake off your hangover. I do recall a few Facebook groups from last year's Cup-run that went something like, "Please Ray, don't do drugs during the playoffs" or, "No drugs 'til after the playoffs". I don't think his tardiness has anything to do with a faulty alarm clock. Maybe he's been hanging out with Redden for too long, but there seems to be a deeper problem at the heart of this issue. He's got his contract, guaranteed cheddar, groupies, and all the accessories that goes along with living the dream. Good for you, Ray. You're what becoming a professional athlete is all about.
