I've heard Dale Hunter apparently makes a ton of dough from his OHL team, and might want to stick to that. Why wouldn't he want to keep coaching the Capitals though?

Anyway, just have to comment on the rash of disgustingly racist tweets from B's fans circling about the interwebs last night. No excuse. It's freaking 2012. The Washington Post tweeted "Joel Ward puts Chocolate City through to the second round" for crying out loud. I shouldn't have to ask "is it racist" all Daniel Tosh-style about one of the more venerable newspapers in this country.

that's too bad that some have to act that way. and yeah, dale does ok with his london knights. i hear he makes more from that than he ever did playing. knowing how tight polian was with his money, i can believe that.
i think dale's done ok with the team-but i can't help but wonder what kind of season it would have been had bruce stayed-altho that point is a moot one.

There should be a Pumpsie Green award given out annually; Beantown would win every year.

And no, booing Obama in Boston is not a leading indicator for how the election will go.

math, is there an issue with the lighting in that arena? seems to always be dark in there.

ottawa keeps playing like that in front of anderson and this game is going to get out of reach really quick.
