Happiest man in Buffalo today: Rick Jeanneret. He always pronounced the name as "Kashan" in the play-by-play and only said it correctly during stoppages.

It's a good thing they cleared all that cap space.

Are the seats in the press box more comfortable in Tampa Bay? Goodbye, "Brick House"; we hardly knew ye.

“It’s the Vatican if you’re Catholic" “truculence” “testosterone” “belligerence” “pugnacity" “I build teams from the net out.”

The last "punch not thrown" by Neil would have been something.

Thank you. From MLB:

Before my very eyes, the Vancouver Sun changed this headline:

He's thirty-six years old? Ah, no, thank you.

How much does Dean Lombardi make a season? Never mind, it's "Mail-it-in" Friday.

TSN. The Pope knows.

This buds for you!

He'll do better once he gets his contract extension.

All copies of Bettman's newspapers have had the sports section removed today. His thinking about revenues lost makes him extra irritable.

Look at those standings!!!
