Damn

I guess Kronwall becomes the next captain, and he's pretty long in the tooth too.

Wednesday morning live NHL hockey on NBCSN (Flames/Bruins, in China). Apparently Boston can win on two continents, and Calgary can lose on two (they lost a preseason game to the Oilers on Sunday).

This makes me so sad. Hank is such a good player and good guy.

This is probably the happiest my wife has been.

I think Kronwall will wear the C. But they will be picking another captain in a year or two. Maybe Larkin down the road.

they do mention his habitat was disturbed by the construction of the arena, so it really is possibly what you get when you dip Youppi! into chemical sludge.

The best I saw was accusing playoff Jake Voracek (with the beard) having an affair with Mrs Phanatic.

Rangers down 1 and pull the goalie. Nashville gets a delayed penalty. The Rangers send out a seventh skater and draw a too many men on the ice penalty. Oops.

Brian Boyle, who has had cancer, scores his first ever hat trick. On hockey fights cancer night. Good story. And it was against the Pens.

Seems like it was time. Not that it was his fault the team got into salary cap issues, but they are going to be pivoting anyways.

Flyers need to fire that bum Hakstol and scoop him up.

It's always satisfying to see the Pinguins lose, but it's especially sweet when they waste a Crysby natural hat trick in the process...
