Thank goodness there is CBC coverage of the game.

Coach Wilson is a walking ball of confusion.

Retire his number NOW!

Did Bobby Hull the wife-beater get bigger cheers?

Game number two of the "Kadri Kooling". Coach Wilson doesn't dislike him, no sir. However, his logic has taken a different turn. From Sportsnet: Just four days to create the next "Stephen Stamkos"? This is sheer genius.

On-the-job training is one of the many cornerstones that will lead to the next Maple Leafs dynasty.

From nhl dot calm: From this point on, it becomes very, very interesting.

The League has made this bed, now they have to lie in it. Unless, of course, they change the sheets.

Great hit. TSN's OTR referred to it as a "Kardashian".

From TSN: Good.

Has Bettman "officially" toured the facility? Nothing happens until that happens.

From TSN:

Top six, by default. Then again, he is in Chicago now.

Boy, the stories he'll have from this for his boys on their next pub crawl, both in South Bend and St. Catharines.

Sportsnet.

From TSN: Fool; he should have asked for an assignment in Albany.
