From an article:

Layden's wife, Marcia was at the Garden draft night and Layden joked he feared for her safety as fans booed the GM.

"It's part of the debate," he said. "It makes you charged to come to work."

This guys is starting to warm up. Maybe all he needs is a little crowd interaction. Or maybe a pint of beer or something.

I like charged up GMs. yeah baby.

Yeah baby! I thought the same thing when I read that.

The jury's still out in my book.

OK, he seems to be "charged up" and "heating up", but as long as he doesn't overheat or overcharge by trading Spree or making some other asinine trade ( because "overheated" items eventually get replaced! ).

If all goes smooth and the right moves are made by Training Camp, then maybe I can respect him enough to stop calling him "Scott Laydown". The right couple of moves from here can have him standing on his own two again in my eyes in no time.
