Roenick's remark is ridiculous

My morsels for today:

NHL: It appears Jeremy Roenick has been hit in the head with a puck too many times. The former Chicago Blackhawks star who now toils for the underachieving San Jose Sharks said Thursday on Chicago Comcast Sportsnet’s "Monsters in the Morning" TV show (a sophomoric version of ESPN’s "Mike and Mike in the Morning") that Detroit Red Wings coach Mike Babcock isn’t playing Chris Chelios because Babcock dislikes American players, especially Chelios. Huh? Chelios, a former Roenick teammate with the Blackhawks, and Babcock immediately dismissed Roenick’s remarks, saying it’s important to consider the source. Roenick has been known to make off-the-wall statements. Chelios is a future Hall of Famer. It’s remarkable that he’s still playing in the NHL at age 47. But he’s on the downside of his career. The only reason he isn’t lacing up the skates in the Western Conference finals is the Red Wings have better defensemen. By the way, Brian Rafalski and Brett Lebda see plenty of ice time on defense for the Red Wings. They’re both Americans.
MLB: Did you know the Minnesota Twins are 42-13 in interleague play since 2006? The Twins were at it again Friday night, pummeling the Milwaukee Brewers 11-3 as Michael Cuddyer hit for the cycle. … Ricky Nolasco (2-5), a 15-game winner last year and the Florida Marlins opening day starter, has been sent to Triple-A New Orleans after giving up eight runs in two innings Friday night against the Tampa Bay Rays in a 15-2 loss. Nolasco’s ERA is 9.01. … Remember slugging first baseman John Mayberry? His son John Mayberry Jr. has been called up to the Philadelphia Phillies from Triple-A Lehigh Valley and may play this weekend against the New York Yankees.

That’s all for now. See you later.
