Enjoy your coffee! Yesterday was my twin sons, Derek & Shane, birthday and they played in a basketball tournament final game but lost. However, my son Shane hit an almost 3/4 of the length-of-the-court shot off the glass as time expired at the half. That is something that he will always remember. Happy Birthday boys! I'm so impressed how Ottawa has maintained their high level of play without its major stars. Kudos Paul MacLean! Daniel Alfredsson and Sergei Gonchar have really shown their leadership skills this year. What has happened to Tampa Bay after they did so good early on? Robin Lehner, Jacob Markstrom and Jake Allen are going to be real studs in net as they gain more experience. The Minnesota Wild are starting to roll much like they did in the first half of last season. read more
