Create Your Flames Roster
Kent Wilson
September 01 2010 10:25AM
It's September again. There's already a chill in the evening air in town and soon the Leaves will begin to change color. It's the time of year when young mens thoughts turn to matter of hockey.
As such, it's about time to start posting rosters. There remains the issue of Calgary's cap non-complicance, but that's going to be part of the fun in constructing the line-ups. Who do you demote? Who do you scratch? Until the question is ultimately answered by Sutter, we're free to speculate.
Without further ado, here's how I guess (hope?) things will shake out:
Langkow Healthy Option
Tanguay - Jokinen - Iginla
Hagman - Langkow - Bourque
Glencross - Stajan - Moss
Stone - Conroy - Kotalik
Bouwmeester- Giordano
Regehr - White
Sarich - Pardy
Langkow Hurt Option
Tanguay - Jokinen - Iginla
Hagman - Stajan - Bourque
Glencross - Conroy - Moss
Stone - Backlund - Kotalik
I'm loathe to put Jokinen and Jarome together again, but part of me knows that's how things are going to happen initially anyways and part of me hopes they can improve their results if someone else is taking the tough sledding. That someone else would be the Langkow unit in the first iteration, while the hard stuff would have to be spread around if Langkow is hurt. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me to see Conroy get a bump to Bourque's line with Langkow in the infirmary, pushing Stajan back down with Moss + Glencross and making the second line the go-to "shut down" trio again.
Potentially controversial is my decision to keep Kotalik and skate him on the 4th line. Despite the cognitive dissonance of paying someone $3M to play at the bottom of the rotation, it's likely the place where he can provide the most value: Kotalik can be completely sheltered at ES with Conroy et al and then would be free to put up results by playing on the PP and scoring the odd shoot-out marker. In addition, keep in mind that the 4th lines as I've constructed them would likely be 10 minute/night units with a good chance to mark the scoreboard, rather than the 5 minute/night detriments that many teams still opt for.
My decision to put Backlund on the 4th line in the second option will also rub some people the wrong way no doubt. However, with Langkow out, the tough assignments are going to be more spread out across the top 9 and the kid is still in the "heavy shelter" territory of his career. Backlund + Kotalik could avoid tough match-ups, take some offensive zone draws and probably cause some havoc against other 4th liners. It puts him in a position to succeed without having to skip a few grades.
No major changes on the back-end, aside from deleting Staios and adding Pelech. This gets the team under the cap and avoids the Pelech-now-waiver-eligible problem. You will also notice that Jackman doesn't show up anywhere - with the team counting 14 forwards and (with me keeping Kotalik), someone else had to take the short flight to Abbotsford. Jackman can tutor the kids on the farm for his 550k and is good bet not to be snatched up on waivers besides. It's more probable that Stone will be the odd man out should this all go down, but he's 50k cheaper and I think I prefer him anyways. Ivanans is retained because we all know he will be no matter how much I protest. He can be subbed in for Stone on the nights when the other team has a dancing bear of their own.
Potential problems? Well, this roster is just 300k under the cap as constructed. That's certainly enough to start the year, but it's skin-of-your-teeth stuff and doesn't leave much room for error or addition as the year moves along.
Anyways, that's my stab at it. Feel free add your critcisms and line-ups in the comments.
You are amazing RO. I've seen you be disrespectful responding to numerous post (name calling etc.). You continue to do it. Can you justify having a forward with such anemic production at this stage of his career as your second line center. I'm interested to hear.

Clearly Darryl isn't going to read this blog, so really none of our opinions serve a purpose outside of creating discussion. There's no need for insults (unless it's an Oil or Nucks fan posting).
I'm hoping Backlund has worked hard this summer so he's able to make the jump. David Perron was picked 2 spots after Backs in 2007, furthermore PK Subban who was picked in the second round that year looks like he'll be steady with the Habs this year. Wayne Simmonds was also drafted last in the 2nd round that year.
With guys drafted the same year as him looking to make a solid impact on their teams this year, I would think that Backlund should also get that chance.

In order to expand the number of knowledgeable fans around, it would behoove you to be a little more polite. Most people who come here either do believe in the type of analysis that Kent uses, or at the very least are willing to potentially buy into it. Your acerbic retorts to people you see as being ignorant are only going to help maintain the relatively small size of the group of fans who you feel you can speak to without developing a nervous twitch.
Everything would be a lot easier if everyone was on the same page all the time, but since that isn't the case and it's nice to have at least a solid base of contributors, keeping a collegial atmosphere would be swell.

Regardless of whether you think Conroy belongs on the second line (I really don't) he clearly doesn't have the cardio for it. His TOI/G has decreased predictably over the past three seasons, and his time per shift was near the NHL low last season. Even with that he looked winded most nights.
I am sure he will take some defensive zone draws with players like Bourque on his wing, but you won't (and shouldn't) see them as a regular line.
As for Jokinen, it may be wishful thinking putting him on the fourth line with Jackman and Stone, but its far south of probable. Nor would it be appropriate. The team is going to sink or swim based on the play of players like Jokinen. Like it or not.
What I don't get is how you can put together such clearly unlikely and unfavorable lines and yet still be so downright insulting to everyone else. With the usual argument "If you don't agree with me you clearly don't know anything about hockey." Well I guess you know more then anybody else, because there isn't an NHL coach alive that would put those lines on the ice.

My formatting got messed up. Will try again.
I kept Tanguay-Jokinen-Iginla together. I am very pessimistic that Jokinen and Iginla will find chemistry. However, this is our best chance to put together a solid number 1 line. And lets face it, the Flames are going to put them together for at least 20-games.
I promoted Glencross to a 2A line with Langkow and Bourque. I think this line can do a majority of the heavey lifting and still produce. On 2B I put Hagman-Stajan-Kotalik together. Stajan and Hagman have good chemistry, and I think Kotalik is a good fit there.
On the fourth I have Stone-Conroy-Jackman. I would prefer Moss, but the salary doesn't allow it. I could keep him and it would technically fit. But I would rather have some flexibility going into the season and towards the trade deadline.
D is pretty predictable. Same as Kent's but with Pelech in the 6-slot. I think he has more upside then Pardy. That said, I expect the two of them to share the role pretty evenly unless one of them wins the position.
If Langkow is out Stajan jumps to his spot and Backlund fill's Stajan's.
That all said I still think the Flames move a D (other then Staois on a bus) and find a way to fit Backlund on the roster.
FORWARDS Alex Tanguay ($1.700m) / Olli Jokinen ($3.000m) / Jarome Iginla ($7.000m) Curtis Glencross ($1.200m) / Daymond Langkow ($4.500m) / Rene Bourque ($3.333m) Niklas Hagman ($3.000m) / Matthew Stajan ($3.500m) / Ales Kotalik ($3.000m) Ryan Stone ($0.500m) / Craig Conroy ($0.500m) / Tim Jackman ($0.550m) Raitis Ivanans ($0.600m)
DEFENSEMEN Jay Bouwmeester ($6.680m) / Mark Giordano ($0.891m) Robyn Regehr ($4.020m) / Ian White ($2.999m) Cory Sarich ($3.600m) / Matt Pelech ($0.600m) Adam Pardy ($0.700m)
GOALTENDERS Miikka Kiprusoff ($5.833m) /Henrik Karlsson ($0.500m)
BUYOUTS: Nigel Dawes ($0.141m)
CAPGEEK.COM TOTALS (follow @capgeek on Twitter) (these totals are compiled using the bonus cushion) SALARY CAP: $59,400,000; CAP PAYROLL: $58,349,995; BONUSES: $0 CAP SPACE (22-man roster): $1,050,005
I don't know about you but a solid base of "duh-hunh, 3 goals in 63 games" contributors doesn't do anything for me.
Most people who come here either do believe in the type of analysis that Kent uses, or at the very least are willing to potentially buy into it.
I don't believe that in the least. I think that FAN960 ad for FlamesNation directs a lot of the after-hours callers here. I'm sure you could go through the archives of even a couple of weeks back and find clear evidence that many (over a third at least) of posters are indeed using arguments that are in direct contradiction to Kent's way.
That's cute. Your opinion of Jokinen and Conroy is noted, and discarded. And it is most certainly not liked.
That Conroy, he was so winded and tired and slow-looking. Yet he still managed to play difficult icetime for the Flames and outchance the players he faced.
He's done, that Conroy. Get us a centre who will be outchanced in similar icetime, like Jokinen. Because it's appropriate to use players who will be outchanced and outscored when we're trying to win games.
We'll surely sink, or sink, with players like Jokinen.
"We'll surely sink, or sink, with players like Jokinen."
So what's the point here? You don't like the team? In fact you think it's so bad you'd peg a 3 goal scorer into the second line.
There may be a fundamental problem with the way this team is built that a world of analysis (read staring at your belly) will not fix. So say that. Pretending to know the winning formula before a puck's been dropped is, forgive me, naive.
But I bet you knew that. Everyone else sucks right?
For what it's worth I hope Jackman gets a shot to contribute. The team lacks an edge (qualitatively).
Conroy is nowhere near the starting roster regardless of Langkow. Moss is falling off the depth chart and fast.
Damn, thanks for the tip.
I don't know much about hockey, see I didn't realize that Conroy and Moss were such bad players. All I ever did was watch the games over the past few years, I mean by the way they were keeping plays alive and generating scoring chances I could have *sworn* they were good.
So, thanks. I needed that reality check.
I can see being brash and boastful has got you real far in life. I'm glad you watch lots of hockey games. I hope you enjoy them too.
The Joker/Iggy has been done and failed. Tangauy wont fix the problem. This is mine. 1 - Iginla - Backlund - Borque 2 - Tanguay - Jokinen - Hagman 3 - Glencross - Stajan - Moss 4 - Kotalik - Conroy - Jackman Ivanans On Defence Gio - JayBo White - Reggie Sarich - Pardy
Id put Staios in Abbotsford and when Langkow returns demot Kotalik, putting him on the top line and moving the lines around where needed. But that is wishful thinking. Those of us who think Staois and Kotalik wont be around are dreaming. Sutter made the move and he'll keep it. I wonder sometimes if Backlund is destined to the "A" because of his salary? Putting Stajan, a $3M man on the 3rd line, can you say FAILURE? This team has alot of "IF's". What if the team doesnt bounce back offensively? What if in game 2 Kipper breaks a leg?

We'll surely sink, or sink, with players like Jokinen.
Yeah, that Conroy was sure an all around amazing player last season. I mean with his scoring chances being counted at 143-139 at EV (like you said) he must have amassed what, like 35-45 goals? No??? Only 3 eh. Huh, well surely he finished on the + side of +/- with all those scoring chances. No? he was -6. Oh. Well too bad that the Flames have Matt Stajan and Olli Jokinen, because they were out chanced when counted at EV. Even though they converted more of their chances into POINTS (which I am pretty sure play a fairly significant role in winning) they just didn't do it in the right way I guess. Stajan and Jokinen may not be world beaters but neither is Conroy - He is good, and at one time was very good, but not anymore. He can still hold more than his own and that is why he will fill the roll of center on the 4TH LINE very nicely. Jokinen and Stajan can and will score more than Conroy and thus should be deployed within the top 6. Langkow playing with Kotalik and Glencross may not be the best move but if Kotalik is as bad at hockey as you say he is, wouldn't you want him playing with someone who is as good as you say he is in Langkow, with another dependable player like Glencross as well? No? Oh yeah thats right, lets just send Kotalik out there with no one else. Just literally him on the ice against the other teams 5 skaters. That way we can tear into him and bash what a terrible player he is. If we are stuck with him (like we ARE) and our GM was stubborn (like he IS) and pushed his brother/coach to PLAY him (like he WILL) wouldn't it make sense to play him on a line where you would not have to worry about his linemates? But I forgot. I'm not here to talk about the Flames, I am here to be called a moron and called names, and read about how everyone that does not agree with you is an idiot. I certainly do not know everything there is about hockey. Compared to people like Kent I know very little. I am ok with it, thats why I use this site, because I like being able to run my (low brow) idea past people that I view as smart and care about the Flames as much as I do and see where I might be wrong. That is how you learn. I hope your brow wasn't too low to get the point I was trying to make. Just remember to breathe out your mouth. You might need a new shirt because your white collar isn't hiding your red neck very well.

Brief Synopsis
Since assuming command in 1998 of the first Civil Support Team (CST) Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), Colonel Stewart witnessed and experienced dramatic changes in homeland security theory, policy, and practice. The most significant changes have occurred since the attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, which violently demonstrated how turbulent today's world strategic environment is. Widely available chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, high yield explosive, and cyberspace security materials, technologies, and equipment often have dual uses. Preventing rogue states and terrorist organizations from acquiring these materials is a necessary but formidable challenge. Additionally, the cyber domain has grown tremendously and may be used to target key infrastructure and resources. In addition to these threats, dramatic weather changes have caused unusual and devastating shifts in weather patterns, which in turn have triggered catastrophic events. The establishment of All-Hazard Training Centers in the 10 Federal Emergency Management Agency regions to train civil support team weapons of mass destruction emergency responders for chemical, biological radiological, nuclear, explosive, and cyberspace events or natural catastrophes are becoming a necessity in light of these threats.

The Australian actress relishes her role as a poisonous flower peddler.
We all know Hollywood's hooker with a heart of gold. Turns out that sexy small-screen serial killers can have a squishy side, too.
Exhibit A: Hannah McKay on this season of Showtime's Dexter (the finale airs Dec. 16, 9 p.m. ET/PT), a flower and plant peddler who serves up her poisoned potions with a peekaboo bra and a smile. Hannah's creator is Aussie actress Yvonne Strahovski, who transitioned from sassy spy (Chuck) to kindhearted killer by studying the savants of the genre, including Dexter himself, Michael C. Hall, "and how he constructs this amazingly likable character that ordinarily you wouldn't root for." (A newly-cast Strahovski, not yet a Dexter disciple, pored over the previous six seasons in three weeks.)
Some might see Hannah's sweetness as manipulative — the cops at Miami Metro certainly do. But Strahovski also turned to the pinnacle of big-screen prostitute-cum-murderer to inject sympathy into her character: Charlize Theron as Aileen Wuornos in Monster. "At the end (of the movie), your heart breaks for her as her heart is breaking," says Strahovski, 30. "Through that performance, you feel she didn't do anything to be malicious; she's just trying to survive in her own way. I think that's sort of Hannah's deal."
But first she had to survive Dexter's table. And being wrapped in plastic. "It didn't feel claustrophobic," Strahovski insists. "At most, it's a little uncomfortable and you get a little hot and sweaty."
Speaking of steamy, that scene where the kill table turns into a tryst table for Hannah and Dex? Strahovski says it was "definitely" the most intimate she's stripped down for work. "No. 1, I was on the kill table, which is sort of its own confronting. Then being naked and doing a sex scene, it's a whole sort of other level of confronting and (feeling) vulnerable."
Hall's expertise when it comes to getting in flagrante delicto on set helped. "I felt like I was in good, comfortable hands," Strahovski says. "No pun intended," she laughs.
Yes, Hall is "an intense guy" but his co-star insists filming wasn't all demonic dads and dark passengers. "I like to be a little jokey at times and we sort of had a lot of fun in between scenes," she says. "I am constantly in awe of Debra (Dexter's lieutenant sister, played by Jennifer Carpenter) and their dynamic."
And no, Strahovski says it's not awkward on set, Hall and Carpenter's off-screen relationship notwithstanding (the two were married from 2008 to 2011). "Everyone is very happy and loving toward each other."
Strahovski won't dish on her own dating status — "I'm going to keep that a mystery" — but she will say that when it comes to Dexter v. Chuck types, she's drawn to "a lovely combination or balance of both: a little bit of danger with a little bit of nerd."
There's no mystery as to how the suburban Sydney native nails such a convincing American accent: a childhood spent attending drama school and watching American movies and TV. "I was obsessed with Dawson's Creek, which was really funny because when I ran into Josh Jackson at Comic Con (a few years ago), I was such a nerd and went up to him and said, 'I really liked you in Dawson's Creek.' He kind of laughed."
This fall, however, Strahovski has had to master an accent trickier than sweet Florida woman with a checkered past: 1930s New Yorker. It's for her co-starring role in the Broadway revival of the Clifford Odets drama Golden Boy, which opened Dec. 6 at the Belasco Theater, the same stage where the play premiered 75 years ago (Strahovski's part, Lorna, was made famous by the legendary Frances Farmer). Working in the same space, there's "sort of a ghostly feel about it," Strahovski says.
Also on Strahovski's 2012 resume: the Christmas Day comedy film The Guilt Trip, alongside Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogen (next fall comes the horror/thriller I, Frankenstein with Aaron Eckhart) and — a No. 35 ranking on Maxim's Hot 100. "It makes me giggle more than anything," Strahovski says about the, uh, honor. "I am a goofball, so being on that list is kind of ironic to me."
Still, she has high hopes for the future: "Maybe one day I will make it to No. 1, and then I can celebrate with a bottle of Champagne."

The Army is the biggest loser in the Pentagon's slimmed-down budget. It looks to shed 100,000 soldiers in coming years.
But there are winners. And fattened accounts say a lot about priorities and direction, particularly in an era of austerity. If austerity can be said of a $496 billion spending plan.
Take, for example, the Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile. A mouthful that sounds a bit better by its abbreviation — JASSM. Unless you're the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Then it sounds just plain bad.
Here's why: The missile can be launched from all kinds of warplanes, from fighters like the F-15 to the stealthy B-2 bomber. The newest model missile more than doubles the range of its predecessor to more than 500 nautical miles. That's the unclassified range. It's likely that it can be fired from much farther away.
And that makes it particularly relevant to China, which has been beefing up its arsenal of so-called anti-access, area-denial weapons. These missiles are intended to destroy ships and bases and keep the U.S. military far from its shores.
STORY: Pentagon builds forces in Pacific, eyes China
Air Force documents from a few years back show that a B-1 bomber flying from Andersen Air Force Base in Guam, and armed with previous-generation JASSMs, has an effective range that extends well inland into China. The new missile drives that threat even deeper into Chinese soil.
STORY: B-1 bomber mission shifts from Afghanistan to China, Pacific
The bottom line: the Pentagon wants to boost spending on the JASSM from $277 million for fiscal 2014 to $353 million in 2015. That will buy the military 224 new missiles compared with the 187 it bought last year.
Pennies on the Pentagon's nearly half-trillion dollar budget, perhaps. But increases in spending, such as those for Special Operations forces, say a lot about the military's future.
"JASSM is well-suited to attacking heavily defended targets because it can be launched from planes over 200 miles away and enemies can't see it coming," says Loren Thompson, a defense industry consultant and analyst at the Lexington Institute think tank. "It is extremely accurate, exploding a thousand-pound warhead within a few feet of aim points. Long-range, air-launched munitions like JASSM help U.S. forces overcome 'anti-access' strategies that China and other countries are pursuing to keep America's military at bay."
Consider, too, our report from a few months ago that the Air Force is upgrading World War II-era bomber bases in the same region.
If you want evidence of the Pentagon's "pivot" to Asia, look no further.

A term describing the University of Nebraska Basketball program, a team that usually gives it's fans false hope and fails to live up to expectations. Just when Nebrasketball fans were starting to realize there was no hope, Nebrasketball hired coach Doc Sadler.
Normally I'm excited for Nebrasketball, but this year, with coach Doc, I have an actual reason to be excited for Nebrasketball.

Fund watch: The niche-building continues in ETFs, this time with two pretty unique funds launching today. As Index Universe's Cinthia Murphy writes, Global X Nigeria Index ETF (NGE) is the first to track stocks in the most populous country in Africa, and only that country. The other is Global X Central Asia & Mongolia Index ETF (AZIA), tracking stocks in countries such as Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. The markets beneath these funds are pretty inefficient, at least compared to U.S. stocks. So the funds are likely to reflect it. As my colleague Ben Levisohn points out, so-called frontier markets pose significant trading challenges for fund investors, including in this case a special use of cash in a portion of the ETF's creations and redemptions. In these markets fund managers often conclude the underlying market is so sensitive to their buys and sells that it can't be relied upon.
In the news: Investors just finished their biggest first-quarter ETF buying spree ever.
In case you missed it: A Fidelity fund with "contra" in the name isn't contrarian — unless your definition includes buying momentum stocks.

Drivers 65+
Primary tabs
For each of the following 15 questions, check one answer that most applies to you.
Think about what tasks you do every time you get behind the wheel of a car. You must coordinate the actions of your hands, feet, eyes, ears, and body movements. At the same time, you must decide how to react to
what you see, hear, and feel in relation to other cars and drivers, traffic signs and signals, conditions of the highway, and the performance of your car.
These decisions are usually made close to other vehicles and must be converted quickly into action — brake, steer, accelerate, or a combination of these — to maintain or adjust your position in traffic. And these decisions must be made frequently.
As a mature driver, you bring a wealth of experience to the driver's seat; that is why, on average, drivers in their fifties and sixties have just about the lowest crash rates of anyone on the road. However, as some of the skills
required for optimal driving performance begin to decline at older ages, research shows that crash rates begin to increase as drivers reach their late 60's or early 70's, and increase more rapidly after about age 75.
Additionally, your body is not as resistant to injury as it might have been 30 or 40 years ago. If you are involved in a crash, you are likely to suffer more serious injuries as compared to a younger person in a similar crash.
This makes it increasingly important for you to do everything you can to keep your driving skills sharp and to minimize your chances of being involved in a crash in the first place.
Purpose of this Quiz:
This self-rating form is designed to help you examine your ability to keep driving safely. Through knowledge and self-awareness, you can make better informed decisions about when to get behind the wheel and when to seek
other forms of transportation.
The rating form on the next page is for your private use. Answer the 15 questions as honestly as possible. Use the rating guide to compute your score and to identify your strengths and weaknesses. Next, read the Suggestions for Improvement section that corresponds to each question to see how you can improve your driving.

Hey Serge,
There seems to be some issues with iOS devices and the wifi. When a client uses a device such as Apple iPad, iPhone, iPod, etc. the customer is logged in successfully but there is very little or no access to the Internet. If the same ticket is used on a windows system everything is all fine. Can you check up on this issue please as there is an increase in the number of iOS devices using my Wifi service and all I'm getting is complaints.

Open early, late and closed on Sundays and Mondays, this quick-service cafe from Rick and Deann Bayless proffers contemporary expressions of Mexico's most beloved street food and snacks: hot-from-the-fryer churros and flaky empanadas; frothy Mexican hot chocolate (ground from Mexican cacao beans right in our front window!); warm, crusty tortas (Mexican submarine sandwiches); and made-to-order caldos (meal-in-a-bowl soups) that feature everything from roasted vegetables to seafood to pork belly.

Places Discussed(Critical Guide to Settings and Places in Literature)
Journey to Paradise
Journey to Paradise. Long journey from life to death that Death orders Everyman to make. Everyman is to take with him his full book of accounts; he must be careful, as he has done many bad deeds and only a few good ones. When he reaches Paradise, he will be required to account for his life. Death permits Everyman to take with him on his journey any companions he wishes, but only Good-Deeds goes with him the entire way.
With several stops along the way, Everyman's journey takes on a dual purpose. On one hand, the image of his traveling from place to place to find a suitable companion is similar to a realistic trip; on the other, and on a more spiritual plane, Everyman's peregrination characterizes his quest for salvation. On this path, Everyman is damned until he realizes that he must free himself of his sins before he is permitted to enter the heavenly sphere. He can accomplish that task only with the help of the sacraments and his own good deeds.
House of Salvation
House of Salvation. Place where Everyman receives the sacrament of penance from Confession. On a certain level, the House of Salvation represents Heaven and is where the play begins—with God speaking about humankind's forgetfulness of his son's sacrifice—and ends with the angel taking Everyman's soul, as does human life.

Albany Cops Oppose NY SAFE!

Check this out! Albany cops oppose NY SAFE. It's worth reading!
Albany Police Officers Union Letter

Albany Cops Oppose NY SAFE!
What do you think?
Mr. Stephen J. Perna
I agree that the NY SAFE Act Law is unconstitutional and was pushed ahead too fast and should be repealed Now!!!
This letter speaks clearly and loudly to gun owners and non-gun owners alike. We should focus on our rights. In the wake of Sandy Hook and this law, we are niavely hoping a maniac, willing to commit a Class A felony, will be diswayed by a lesser penalty. If concern is availability then change the laws to greater increase penalty for those who own guns and let them out of their control. As far as Sandy Hook, loosen the law to allow civilian authorities to have access should and when the one occurs. This law is preached to "minimize" the deaths in a case like Sandy Hook. Imagine a different result of two double-locked safe boxes containing pistols in the school with certified school staff trained to use them. If you had a principal willing to approach an armed gunman, she may have had compossure to handle a gun and take him out upon the violent entry. For those who oppose of the potential dangers, most schools are equipped with AED devices, which would cause fatal electrocution if misused, but yet we are comfortable with their existence to save lives. Justrying to think of ways to protect, its our right
Mahr and other idiots
These clowns are simply defining the difference between smart and smart-a*s. Smart-a*s types could not have written the Constitution or Bill of Rights. Laugh at them....not with them
'bout time
I, too, am not a big fan of most Unions, But in this case, I strongly commend them. I will be forwarding this letter to local and County law enforcement, asking them to chime in. Dale - Lyndon, NY
Mr. James Fletcher
Thankyou for your decision to back the constitution and the peoples rights. Our Governor is acting like a dictator raming through this ill conceived law
Gun laws protect the criminals
Politicians always take the easy path. Instead of enforcing the laws on the books they always come after the legal gun owners. Wake up politicians...we have a mental health crisis in this country not a problem with licensed gun owners.
Great release
Hon? Gov Cuomo's and Dictatorial cronies wall should be taken down ..before we lose our Constitutional rights not only for our children, but also our children's children..Also take ahard look at what 's going on with Agenda21 and new education brainwashing
Right on
This is exactly what the liberal fools in Albany and NYC need to hear.
Cuomo words
What was it that Andy called those people that disagreed with the "SAFE ACT"? Oh yeah. "EXTREMISTS" Joe
I think NY got it right for once.
After hearing about Bloomberg trying to destroy NY over and over again with his super socialist agenda and high taxes, it's GREAT to hear this. Can't believe I'm saying this but....GOOD JOB NY!
True courage
I want to thank and commend the law enforcement professionals serving Albany for their courage and integrity. I'm sure that Mr. Cuomo will do everything in his power to punish these officers. My God bless and protect them.
new laws
They should make a law that states if you use a gun in a crime you go to jail for murder and if you shoot some one the criminal should have the choose how he is put to death
Adolf Cuoma, needs to be removed from office.
TO DISARM A MAN IS THE MOST EFFECTUAL WAY TO ENSLAVE HIM!! This ia not Cuba, Iran or China, this the United States of America,home of the FREE and the BRAVE.
Tell it like it is
Hats of to Albany police.If any of you would run for office you would get my vote!!!
I think cops/ peace officers are getting screwed
I'm a peace officer for a community college and I carry at work and we all carry illegal according to the new 7 round law. Also a veteran just returned on jan and I applied for a permit will I be denied quiet possible even though I took all the state requirements from my local academy and qualified.
as a former residntof NY i think what the state legislature has done to the people of the state is ludacristand needs to be repealed i moved to Texa many years ago andbecame a deputy sheriff and i promise ya'all that this law is nothing more than away to disarm law abiding citizens of this country i also commend the albany police union for standing up for the public good luck
Lyndon Vol.Firefighter
I agree with Dale-Lyndon too much government--not enough common sence. Our forefahers are turning around in their graves.
pistol permit holder
i agree 100% with the albany police officers
Veteran/small business owner/politican
I can not say enough good things about the Albany Police Officers Union. I know it took alot of thought before this letter was written, because that is politics. I am proud of their stand against the SAFE act. I totally agree, along with many many others, that the actions of the politians who pushed this thru, had nothing what so ever to do with safety and that my friends is the problem we are having in this country. We need to fight hard to get this act repealed and vote the persons responsible, out of office and get involved in your local politics.
Less Government
I would personally like to thank the Albany Police Officers Union for supporting the Constitution and the Citizens of New York. While some politicians choose to ignore our rights the Albany Police Union and it membership did not. I am grateful, thank you.
I will have your back
I can say this to any cop that comes out and stands by us in this hour of need. When and if the poop hits I will have your back a i did as a military member and will again. For those who do not support that which they have sworn to up hold though they know it is illegal, you are on your own.
powerfull statement
This letter says it all. This law must be repealed in its entirety and Mr. Cuomo should seriously consider resigning his position. He is not upholding the US Constitution as he has pledged, but in fact he is violating the constition by pushing thru NYSAFE. Mr. Cuomo, your chances for the presidency in 2014 are over!!! Pete, Strykersville, NY
Power to the Union
I am mystified, but enthraled. One more vote to the Union!
new government for NY
HOORAY for APOU great letter THANKS!!!! New Yorkers think long and hard about who put back in those politcal seats!!!!Ray North Tonawanda NY
The Constitution??
Weren't you the one who opposed the "ground zero" (it wasn't) "mosque" (it wasn't) in full defiance of the First Amendment? How then do you have any credibility whatsoever?
Standing Tall
Hats off to the Albany police officers! As a female gun owner, I will stand with you.
