I don’t think so.
AO72—while being extremely annoying—was always pretty sharp, quick witted and fairly articulate. This guy is, uh—less so.

I like Smith a lot (didn't think I would before last year) but any Vezina predictions are a joke.

Is that punch literally the reason we have Prout? I mean after the debacle that was Mike Smith having to stick up for himself last year against Lucic, I'm curious.

Off-season Comes.
