Monday Links

The rest of the US took last Monday off? Me, I'm off this Monday. I like it better that way. Linkage, anyone?

Blues news

I have a feeling some of the morons ... err "posters" over on Stl Today won't like Barret Jackman attending a dog wedding. Mostly since he is the new Eric Brewer. He is not Chris Pronger, a once-in-a-generation talent so he sucks. [Fox]

Hockey news

How bout them Pens? Did they win? I typed this before dinner so I'm not sure. I'm hoping they did. I hate the Wings. [Score]
Check out Pensburgh and Winging it in Motown for more coverage. [WIM] [Pensburgh]
If you can explain to me what the hell is going on in Dallas, that would be great. Brett Hull out as Co-GM but still with the team. [AP]
Don't feel bad for Hull, he still is going to get paid, but now won't have to do much. [Puck Daddy]

Other things

This is where you guys come in. Send me/us stuff that makes you laugh. Come on ... you know you wanna. Gametimelinks (at) gmail.com

Smoking kills some, not all. [Edmonton Sun]
Even nerds get ink. [unique scope]
Read this heAdline: "Starting tomorrow think of Canada as a foreign country." [Buffalo News]

Video

From Hildymac ... A literal music video. Enjoy.

That's all I got for today. Have a good first day of June. Happy birthday Natethegreat. Enjoy the big 23.

"Don't feel bad for Hull, he still is going to get paid, but now won't have to do much"

He didn’t do much as co-GM, either, except say “Hey, you know what we should do? Sign that Vouge guy, he’s pretty good!”

He’ll just go back to being the Ambassador of Fun. Which is basically what he was doing even in the co-GM role, I think, while allowing Les Jackson to do all the actual GM work.

I’m not a geek, so most of those tats didn’t really appeal to me, but this one was particularly awesome:

what's with

all these barely retired players ending up as GMs? first garth snow (bad move), then hull (bad move) … now nieuwendyk? who decided this was a good idea?
