Re: “Ex-hockey player charged in case of child-grabbing,” May 1.
What does being an ex-hockey player have to do with this story other than fill space with the right amount of words? Had Harold Nyren worked for a local retailer such as Save-on-Foods or as a construction labourer, would the newspaper have named the company he was employed at? I doubt it.
Please keep the articles to what is relevant to the story. References to him being an ex-player for the WHL and other leagues in the last three paragraphs are filler of no relevance.
