The contentious e-mails were the ones McKenzie was referring to and those e-mails did lead to the firing of Warren. Qris's point is that complaints directly relating to Colin Campbell's son and his team impacted the firing of Warren. McKenzie is trying to deflect criticism of Campbell by claiming that the contentious e-mails did not actually lead to anyone getting fired, so what's the big deal? His argument is untruthful.Daniel Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14218580923841725982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748120234252907284.post-67674991220493454982010-11-17T04:04:03.947-08:002010-11-17T04:04:03.947-08:00I don't think Bob McKenzie needs to issue an c...I don't think Bob McKenzie needs to issue an correction for saying "the referees that Colin Campbell complained about to Walkom, they're still working in the National Hockey League"...

It's infuriating. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=341501<br /><br />The topics not covered in McKenzie's article are what reall backs up what you're saying here. McKenzie just wrote a defense of Colin Campbell. Seriously?<br /><br />He says the hockey community respects him. Was Willie Mitchell the only one who felt the way he did when he went rogue at the end of last season?<br /><br />He says Campbell's a child of the old-school game, but it doesn't read as evidence he's a strong part of the hockey community. It reads as evidence that he's out of touch with where the game is now.Harrison Mooneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03261557020279875141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748120234252907284.post-16935079853181695792010-11-16T13:02:57.360-08:002010-11-16T13:02:57.360-08:00Oh look, Bob McKenzie just posted a long article. ...Oh look, Bob McKenzie just posted a long article. During the whole thing, no mention of Gregory Campbell or Dean Warren and his firing. Remember, this is the guy who made the egregiously false statement that "nothing was ever acted on, that we're aware of, because the referees that Colin Campbell complained about to Walkom, they're still working in the National Hockey League."<br /><br />I don't have a twitter account, but he does, and people ought to point out how wrong he is. Do the man a service before he keeps accidentally saying that the referees that Campbell complained about (mostly Warren) are still working in the NHL.Qris Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16671415368467961401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748120234252907284.post-7668668615632970652010-11-16T12:29:36.889-08:002010-11-16T12:29:36.889-08:00I asked at least some of those questions yesterday...I asked at least some of those questions yesterday.
