Sometimes people don’t understand that television personalities have a job to do. Jody Shelley is now a television personality, and he was just trying to do his job on Saturday night, which was analyze the Blue Jackets’ 3-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks.
But when one of the Sharks is a former teammate, well things are just going to have to happen.

Yup, that’s Joe Thornton, who Shelley played with from 2007-2010 with San Jose. It was a friendly hello between former teammates and friends … full of smiles to fill the time until another smile filled event: a John Tortorella press conference.
