- Speaking of the Hockey Hall of Fame....
You can cringe all you want - and I’m cringing - but Gary Bettman belongs in the Hockey Hall of Fame. What he’s done for the business of the game is gigantic.

I question the @HockeyHallFame and the sport itself for the decision to celebrate Gary Bettman. I would like for the @HockeyHallFame to return all personal items donated from my hockey career. This is not something I want to be a part of. #nhl #nhlpa @CarBombBoom13 @NHL #ohl

- Shocker, Edmonton is in denial over another trade. This time is over the Calgary Flames most recent move. [Edmonton Journal]
I want to thank @NHLCanes for the past 5 seasons. Thanks to the Staff, the fans, my teammates and the whole organization. You guys have been awesome. Can't thank you guys enough.
