Before joining The Hockey Writers, James Phieffer was busy antagonizing idiots as a political commentator and writer, with his work appearing in the Belleville Intelligencer and at his website, jamesphieffer.blogspot.com. When he felt he wasn't causing enough mayhem, the hockey world beckoned, and a lifelong passion for the sport led him to a spot with THW.
James writes on all matters surrounding hockey, with a desperate hope that every article he writes irritates someone.
