Kelly you are drawing on some very broad and incorrect analogies, we are not blaming CMAS for not discussing issues with every hockey player. We have argued that they did not discuss things with their own elected officials. What would you like us to do on this issue? Write to every hockey player in the world so we can get a consensus opinion.

I am afraid due to time constraints we don't have the luxury of going up and down the communication tree to wait 3 years for a decision. A name is also something that you would never get consensus on especially when you only look at it from an English speaking point of view, in French and Spanish I sure they will have some left field suggestions.

If you are going to sit there and criticise us then feel free to take a position on the Hockey Commission and really contribute. We are elected to make decisions on behalf of hockey players and we will continue to make them in the best interest of all concerned, if we make the wrong ones then we will be taken to task at our elections.

You may wish to consider that the only reason you are talking about this is because I am trying to do the right thing here and make this forum work and your world president is Australian, so you get some inside goss to the workings of things. If I seem a little annoyed it is because I am, I am glad to hear you are not criticizing the work we have done so far, but hang on a minute you just have.

Cheers.

PS you may wish to fill out your profile so I know who I am talking to
