• The same people who think hockey can survive in Phoenix were the ones who thought an NHL awards show in Las Vegas was a good idea.
• Only in Gary Bettman’s NHL can a team without an owner, Phoenix, make a trade with a team that doesn’t have a general manager, Florida.
• Expect Mike Babcock to be named Canada’s Olympic coach on Thursday, and don’t be surprised if Lindy Ruff, Ken Hitchcock and Claude Julien are part of the coaching package.
• I see where Mike Gillis, who often fudged the truth about his professional relationship with disgraced agent David Frost, wants to build the Vancouver Canucks on the values of character and integrity. If that’s the case, maybe he should start by resigning.

WoW! Nice drive by smear job Mr. Simmons. Wonder what got you all heated up about Mike Gillis that you throw some innuendo out ther and call for his resignation.
I’ve been impressed by the job he has done in a short time. He has a very smart approach to player development and building the organization.
Wonder how you would stand the scrutiny from the company you keep much less the people you know?
