My future brother-in-law is going thru a real tough time right now. Drew’s work is his bond and he had an accident on the job. We’d be so grateful if you’re able to keep him in your thoughts.
Still making sense of all this. The rumours are true, Sir Charles is as kind and welcoming as they say.
The lighting must’ve been really flattering in the suite😂
Bobby asked if he believes in hockey gods: “yeah, I do. But I didn’t think I’d be on their good side for everything that’s gone on in my personal life for the last little while. I guess they granted me some reprieve and gave me a good night.”

Paul Maurice on Dylan DeMelo’s Jets debut:
“That was a pure...I don’t know if you can call it ‘coach’s porn’ but when you’re watching hockey video it’s pretty darn good.”

Growing up out west it was either Jay and Dan or Don Taylor on the S-pack every morning before school for me.
My buddy and I used to reference some of their "bits" while doing the morning announcements over the school PA.
Not sure what I'd be doing if not for their influence.
Had I known last night was my final show, I would have tried a little harder. Ahhhh, who am I kidding. I probably wouldn't have. It was a wild ride. If you got our show, then you laughed along with us. Thank you! Peace and love and let's raise a glass together once Covid is over.
This was one I'll never forget.
Andrew Matheson, his goalie coach at ASU says, "when Joey steps on the ice you know one thing...he's going to pour his heart and soul into the game."
Pretty evident in this post-game chat

"I don't even have words right now. I just want to thank my family for everything they've done for me - It's pretty special."
An emotional Joey Daccord joined

win in a game he wasn't supposed to start. What a moment. 👏

Max Domi:
-son of Tie
-will wear 13 to pay homage to Mats Sundin, who was “like an uncle” to him growing up
-now a member of the Canadiens, and he can’t wipe the smile off his face
This is amazing. Dylan used to hitch a ride in the back of the Bukauskas family truck from time to time as he and my younger brother went off to hockey/baseball tournaments.
Congrats Cogs!! What a game.
As we just shared on the broadcast both Nick Suzuki and the Canadiens connected with the family and will have them as guests at the game Saturday when the Capitals come to town.
Stick taps to Suzuki and the team for making a feel-good story even better

Thanks Nick for taking a selfie & making sure Hunter was ok after he didn’t catch the puck you tossed him😂He loves the stick, puck autograph & Fat Lip😉A memory that will last a lifetime. Had to leave the game cause the stick wasn’t aloud🤣
Pierre Dorion on Monday: “Guy is our coach. I don’t think anyone will disagree with me on this one that I’ve probably made his job pretty difficult the last few weeks, and we’re going to support him.”
How's this for family? Nick Holden's boys were playing hockey on Saturday and their "baby sitter" Brady Tkachuk wanted to come watch them and brought Jake Sanderson and Thomas Chabot with him.
"He was right into it yelling and cheering the kids on," Holden said.
#Sens
Alex Formenton just one-timed a shot bar-down from the right flank during PP1 work much to the delight of his teammates as the injured Josh Norris and Drake Batherson watched from the stands.
Chabot looked up and yelled: “Hey Norris, welcome to the 2nd unit!”
#Sens
Brady Tkachuk on Chabot’s new deal: “It’s an awesome day and we know he’s going to be paying for a lot of dinners now so I’m very happy to be a close friend of his.”
#Sens
We’re still doing this, eh? The Leafs require media to wear masks when interviewing players/coaches in close proximity.
The last time I took part in “theatrics” was my supporting role in Mark Medoff’s “The War on Tatem” in 12th grade.
Hart said Price told him: “good luck, I’ll be watching you”
The 22yr old gets the better of his idol in what turned out to be a tight, entertaining series
Pierre Dorion, hours after Karlsson was traded to SJ:
"We will preserve a core group of veterans, good leaders, while tapping into the young, elite NHL talent that will embrace our culture, our character, our chemistry that we want to build in our locker room for the long haul.”
1 in 5...
One. In. Five.
That's how many Canadians deal with mental health issues in a given year. Let's be there to help, to listen, and to end the stigma.

Tough news on Josh Norris today: DJ Smith is not confident he will play again this season.
Still waiting to see if surgery is needed on his shoulder

Dorion: Eugene gave me a chance to be one of 32 GMs in the NHL. I want to say to the fans back home we will deliver on our promise in bringing a Stanley Cup to Ottawa.

re-branding
A source told me the new jerseys will look "almost 100%" like the 2D-era ones
The original plan was to unveil them at the draft this year but then the pandemic hit...they're still determining the new date I'm told
Smith on the Dell interference: “it’s a bad play and it’s unfortunate it’s going to cost a young player a chance to go to the All-Star game…it’s ridiculous”

Had this sent to me tonight from a game we did a couple years ago. Vic doing his thing as the Leafs came onto the ice after an intermission.
Rest easy, Vic.
We are saddened to learn of the passing of Vic Braknis, who ushered the Leafs onto the ice before every period.
An usher at MLSE for 29 years, Vic’s smile and positive attitude will be remembered by all the fans and players who had the pleasure to meet him. He will be missed.
Charlie told a neat story these playoffs that after every Bruins goal his aunt will phone grandma Mary Kelly. Grandma picks up and rings her cowbell while his aunt yells “woo!”
And then they hang up without actually saying a word.
Mark Borowiecki caught himself getting a little emotional on the bus ride to the rink this morning.
“Driving down Richardson Side Rd and I was like ‘oh man…I used to live down here!’…This isn’t just a place where I played-this is home.”
Sam Montembeault told me postgame when Martin St Louis came aboard he wanted to break the remainder of the season down into best-of-7 series.
So tonight the

completed the reverse sweep to begin the St Louis era.
