from Shawn Roarke of NHL.com,
As a reporter, you know that the playoffs have reached critical mass when you can no longer remember where you are, never mind what day it is.
That day arrived Tuesday for the NHL.com group.
After staying up all night Monday after Game 5 – we left the arena at 3:30 a.m. —to catch a 6 a.m. bus Tuesday to Pittsburgh, the NHL.com crew arrived in the Steel City at noon. As usual, there was work to do so we scattered to all corners.
Some of us went to Pittsburgh availability, others to Red Wing availability. The rest went straight to hotel rooms to maintain the site. Myself and Brad Holland made sure we got the post-game podcast with Kings coach Marc Crawford, an NHL.com exclusive, done.

YZ, I am improving but not in Pittsburgh. If it goes to game 7, my intentions are to be at the Joe, but it is a day to day thing for me.
The flashing still exists but is improving and have been told it may take 4-6 weeks to fully recover.
The diagnosis was a high blood sugar level, which with medication will be brought down to normal. I was in pretty bad shape for a few days but the outlook looks good.

High blood sugar? Uh-oh.
That’s why I drink diet pop! All the caffeine to keep me going, but none of the sugar because it makes me jittery ... 
Glad you are feeling better, Paul.

Paul,
This is off topic, but this article reminded me of your medical situation the other day. Since you’re back blogging, I’m guessing/hoping it has beeen resolved favorably. Are you in Pittsburgh for Game 6 with the rest of the NHL.com team? Hope all is well!
Thanks again to you, Alanah, Bill, Steve, et al for the excellent coverage.
