Don't be too hard on the kids. They tried their best. They seemed tight all tournament. Hockey Canada has to get with it and hire full-time coaches for the World Jrs, Under 18, Under 17 and get some consistency.

June 6th D-Day. Canadians took Juno Beach. We had over 900 killed or wounded. Even though we were last to land we ended up far ahead of British and American forces at the end of the day. Juno beach was most successful landing that day. Lest we forget.

1) I must say I am hurt and disappointed that my friend Steve Simmons would suggest in his Sunday column that Hockey Night in Canada might not want me back for next year. I was told a week after the playoffs I would be back.

78 years ago, Canadians were part of D Day. More than 14,000 Canadians landed or parachuted into France. By the end of the Battle of Normandy the Allies had over 200,000 casualties, with the more than 18,700 Canadians killed or wounded. Lest we forget.

So it's Andersen's fault eh? In 5 games, .934 save %, 1.84 GGA, 1 SO, and as usual 2nd in shots faced. Leafs get shutout twice and in 5 games get 3 5 on 5 goals. #notAndersensfault

So let me get this right. McDavid the best player in the NHL by far, gets one first place vote and finishes in 5th spot for the Hart Trophy. Ask any GM "what player they would want to start a franchise with" and everyone would say "McDavid".

Buffalo misses the playoffs again, 9 years in a row. Feel sorry for Eichel. Sabres had 3 fights this year and less than 20 hits per game. You think some of the 19 players who scored less than ten goals might get mad and drop the gloves or throw a hit now and then.

Sad to hear the passing of Gilles Gilbert, my goalie in Boston for 5 seasons. Gillie and I didn't always see eye to eye. He still set an NHL record for most consecutive wins by a goalie with 17. He was fantastic in '79 vs the Habs. Godspeed Gilles.

4. When you’re getting $10 million a piece like Matthews and Marner; as Jack Dempsy said to him movie star wife “it’s tough to get up at 5:00am and run in silk shorts.” But what surprised me in the 7th game there was no fire, it was like a regular season game.
