Do is the finest Sports announcer alive today in IMO maybe the finest ever. He thinks quick, calls the game well, and best of all he throws in things that make you feel like he's talking to you in your living room. You can tell he loves what he does and he loves the sport. He pairs up nicely with Edso too.

Lucic fit well in the Big Bad Bruins mentality and style of play. I was upset when he was traded but he does have a problem with letting emotions get the best of him and taking bad penalties (like Marchand used to but Luc doesn't have as much skill).
The Devils are taking a beating in the third period tonight. I'm not a big fan of theirs but I had hoped that between Subban, Simmonds and Hughes added to the team that tonight would have been a closer match. That kid is fantastic. No telling how great he can be as he matures.
In other news, Malkin is out and the Pens aren't looking like a contender this year. I would keep an eye on the Avs. I think they will do well. I'd like to see the Rangers make a run for Henry's sake if the Bruins aren't going to hoist the cup. I think this is his last year.
