I was a bit surprised by the booing towards Blake also, but it is what it is. Not every fan will do the right thing when a former player comes to town. I think it was more out of hurt feelings than anything else. We don't boo Peca when he visits, likely because he was traded and did not make the decision to leave on his own. I stood and gave Blake a few claps out of support. Jonathan,

I was surprised by this. He had his ups and downs on the Island, but he usually played his heart out. And it's hard to fault the guy for taking an extra ten mil to go play in Hockey Central.
