In the aftermath of the NHL Awards show from Las Vegas, I’d like to say this. The show stunk. It was one of the most amateurish, rough, and thrown-together events in recent memory. Replace the producer and get a real one for next year.

It seemed like only yesterday that Boston had this guy who looked like an overweight butcher playing goal for them. It was Fatty Arbuckle back there.
Now, instead of Fatty Arbuckle, the same guy in goal looks like an overweight Vladislav Tretiak.
