Here are all the hockey links from around the world, and what I’m reading while never realizing that Bills fans liked the Life and Times of Johnny Hildo sketch from Saturday Night Live so much.
*Detroit defenseman Niklas Kronwall is dealing with the new reality of playing with chronic pain, and that’s a tough one.
*The fantasy hockey heroes and zeroes for TSN’s stat maven, Scott Cullen. I can tell you from personal fantasy hockey experience that loading up on skilled Leafs forwards isn’t a bad idea.
*The Headlines segment from Hockey Night in Canada where the insiders wonder if Ryan Spooner might be on his way out of Boston.
*PHT writer James O’Brien on the emotional night for Craig Anderson as he pitched a shutout for the Senators after his wife was diagnosed with cancer. An extremely emotional and moving evening for everyone involved, and best wishes to the Anderson family.
*Rick Nash has found a way to put last season’s struggles with the New York Rangers behind him, and is once again dominant for the Blueshirts.
Boston Bruins
*FOH (Friend of Haggs) Arthur Staple has the inside scoop on the Isles goaltending situation, and why at least one of them might be on the trade block.
*For something completely different: I never thought I’d write this sentence, but Tom Brady talked flying sex toys in Buffalo today.
