Hell, give him all the trophies, he's been the most interesting thing that's happened in the NHL this year.

Playoffs are no big deal,
don't have a crap attack.
It's amazing how much I loved Steve Simmons when I was a kid. He was probably my favourite sportswriter.

I also really liked Rick Rielly, and would always flip to the back of SI whenever I was at my orthodonist.

Basically, I had no taste.

Sabres fired the wrong guy.


No, seriously.

One bit of good news: Buffalo’s head of hockey department IT, Kyle Kiebzak, was re-hired after initially being fired. His termination apparently was a mistake.

This is probably exactly what happened and it's kinda funny to think the owners were just panic-firing so many people that they didn't really think about what they were doing.

This is precisely why I never let my son near a rink. I worked for a year in the WHL and saw enough poo poo for a lifetime. My personal favourite day was when two dudes who became NHLers duct taped the mentally handicapped equipment manager to a weight lifting bench and then brought in the Russian import who didn’t know English. They then coached him to call the guy all kinds of names (you can probably guess what they were) and just laughed and laughed. I was the same age as these dudes and also a little fuckin scared dork so I didn’t say anything, just kinda walked away. That absolutely poisoned the well of wanting to work in sports journalism/hockey operations for me.

I play pickup with a some guys who played in Junior A/B and from what I gather from them it's not much better there, either.

One of the students I recruited into the college program with which I work played for the Ohio AAA Blue Jackets and also played High School hockey in Wisconsin. He seems like a reasonable enough kid, but I don't want to know what stories he might have.

The NHL got super lucky and fluked into making a successful big market team in a flashy city in Las Vegas. They're not going to let anyone forget it for the next decade.
