    Turns out eventually is a few days ago. I'll be around from time to time to tell people I'm not around but otherwise you won't find me here. Follow me over there for brightly-coloured nonsense: @HockeyViz.com

    In light of recent twitter functionality downgrades (not to mention all of the previous downgrades) you should know that I'm posting everything on bluesky also; eventually I'll be out of here forever. You should all come to bluesky instead, it is nicer.

    I do admire the Flyers having nothing to play for but taking the Penguins and Red Wings down with them anyhow. That's the kind of hater energy the league needs more of.

    Any nhl team could hire me for a million bucks a year; I would do nothing but say 'don't do that' five times a year, and I'd be worth it.

    Ah yes, the famously professional Arizona Coyotes, who called me up to ask me about working for them and then ghosted me when I refused to work for free.

    Breathtaking singularity of purpose. Flawless technique. The kind of élan vital that powers legends.

    If Babcock getting fired is going to unleash the torrent of previously-ignored coach abuse stories from all over the league it will be even better for the sport than I imagined.

    I especially relish the thought of Montreal winning this series because that's the outcome that would teach the wrongest lessons to both teams.

    Shouldn't use 'Achilles heel' to mean 'salient weakness'. If one thing is your Achilles heel, that means that you are basically perfect at every other thing. If you have several weaknesses of which one is worst you don't have an Achilles heel. You are not Achilles. You are Bob.

    The day that NHL teams prefer to play young players who might be bad instead of old players who are definitely bad will be a beautiful day.
