Anyone else getting tributes to RJ from their news feeds on their devices? I get a new one about every 6 hours.

You need Dan Kelly too. Also, the guy from Detroit in the Dead Things era deserves praise.

The YouTube use jzambon has a nice merge of RJ announcing Briere's OT GWG in game 6 versus Carolina with the video. "There's still room on the believer's bandwagon!"

Hard for me to argue with this list. I am old enough to remember Brent Musberger doing a pretty good job with Braves' playoff games and have heard Chuck Hearn in basketball.

I have a hard time being objective about Don Cherry because some of his antics led to direct threats on my cousin's well-being, but MacLean owes him big time.

I hope his family is OK in spite of the wildfires in the NWT.

Who was 55?

Oh, this looks like fun.

I think 89, Satan, and Mike Ramsey respectively.

For me, it was John Lennon. I was watching Monday Night Football.

Work does not mean much today.

You just reminded me of another section of the Hockey Stars article: "Although he's most famous for his goal calls,..., He can make a boring game sound exciting and an exciting game sound like a life-or-death struggle."

Only the first one even remotely interests me, but it would have to be less for Saros alone.

Quoting Hockey Stars magazine in 1996: "Hands down, Jeanneret is the best TV play-by-play man in the NHL and he's so far ahead of the rest that there's no second best." That was from hockey journalists with no connection to Buffalo. GOAT gets thrown around too much nowadays, but not in RJ's case. I have listened to Foster Hewitt, Danny Gallivant, Dan Kelly, and numerous others. We in Buffalo were extremely lucky to have Rick.

The 5 whose management, coaching staff, players, and fans I like the most. That would vary by year.

Toronto -- toxic fanbases Philadelphia -- a 50 year long passionate hate. Arizona -- unless it stabilises. Chicago -- scumbag cover-up. Las Vegas -- I hate the night life, don'like to boogie on the disco at night, oh no.

And some of those are probably for players virtually nobody knows about anymore.

Why?

What do you think of "Kill the Wabbit" from "What's Opera, Doc?"

This is awesome. Allegedly, getting rid of Kane and Bogosian helped things.

Based on how frugally GMKA husbands his resources, I can not see him risking losing one of the goaltenders or one of the top 8 defencemen before the season. JMO. Feel free to call me out if I am wrong.

At what point does Adams have to overpay (in his mind) in prospects to get a legitimately solid goalkeeper? Or will he allow the team to sink with its goalkeeping because he refuses to trade one of his prospects?

A few of us don't because of the 3-headed monster in goal.

RIP.

Houser makes 5.
