PromoTheRobot Posted July 14, 2014 Report Posted July 14, 2014 I was woken up this morning with a last second assignment cover a pro-am golf tournament today. One player is former NHL and Sabres goalie Ty Conklin. I'll be writing a feature on him about what he's doing since retirement. Anyone have any questions to suggest I ask? Quote
Eleven Posted July 14, 2014 Report Posted July 14, 2014 I was woken up this morning with a last second assignment cover a pro-am golf tournament today. One player is former NHL and Sabres goalie Ty Conklin. I'll be writing a feature on him about what he's doing since retirement. Anyone have any questions to suggest I ask? Please ask him what he thinks about LeBron returning to Cleveland. I believe Conklin may be the only person on Earth that we have not heard from on that topic. I'm curious to know his thoughts. Quote
X. Benedict Posted July 14, 2014 Report Posted July 14, 2014 be sure to ask about the longest game - the outdoor games - Lindy Ruffs approach to back-ups - and the movement toward bigger goalies. Quote

PromoTheRobot Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Posted July 14, 2014 http://ghintpp.com/nhgolf/TPPOnlineScoring/ResultsStroke.aspx?id=202&fid=0 Here's the scoreboard if you want to follow along. Spoke to Ty for a few minutes after his round. Here's the thumbnail: 1) He's a development coach for goalies with the Blues (Jim Corsi got him the gig.) 2) He doesn't stay in touch with the Sabres Alumni but he does talk to Ryan Miller. 3) Made a snide comment about the NHL "getting what they wanted" in the first Winter Classic. (Snow, Crosby scoring, shootout, etc.) 4) He doesn't play hockey at all anymore, not even for fun. Pads are put away for good. 5) Lives in NH now and plays a lot of golf. Quote

Did you ask him about the three double bogeys? Quote

How psychologically traumatic was his career that it's not fun anymore at all? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Xt1r-StivM And the following game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juTCGJ_FqG4 1) He's a development coach for goalies with the Blues (Jim Corsi got him the gig.)
