I thought I was going to really miss the old HNIC theme song from Saturday nights when they first lost it to TSN. Then when TSN lost out on the bids, I thought I'd miss hearing it. Now two years have passed and I realize I don't really give a ####. I actually had to think hard to even remember how it went when I was reading this thread, and I actually think I like the new song better, but what I've actually realized is the song doesn't matter or influence my enjoyment in the slightest.

I actually like both Maclean and Strombo, but only in small doses.
As for the Bettman feud, I find it difficult to believe that Bettman would engage in some sort of personal war with Ron Maclean over a couple of interviews.
To what end? To sewer Maclean's career? Could you imagine what would happen if there were ever any evidence to that effect? Bettman is a lawyer.
It just seems like whatever petty benefits exist are vastly outweighed by the risk and effort. I just dont see it.

The song is very dated. I prefer the new HNIC theme over it; it had it's time.

Gio looks good - beard spot on. Shirt collar is great. Peak lapels too narrow though. Pepsi, who was best dressed at the awards?
Edit - dammit, Gio. Just saw he switched to a black shirt. Buttoning point too high too. 3/10

As our @jembradshaw tweeted, @DamoSpin is now radio only.
I am pretty happy about this.

So they are these possible layoffs due to cut backs or are they looking at replacing these people?

i'm sure the canadian teams sucking, limited playoff viewership, is all adding up to an already overpaid deal to get the NHL monopoly.
