Deas: En intressant artikel om Islanders nye coach Ted Nolan om bland annat hur det är att leva med rasistiska påhopp med mera i hockeyrinken.
"The taunts and jeers were crashing down over him in a relentless storm of ignorance, hate and bigotry. He heard words he knew could be directed only at him, the lone Ojibwa Indian on a tier II junior hockey team in Kenora, a map-dot town in western Ontario located just above Minnesota and right in the middle of a Ted Nolan nightmare.
It was 1975. He was 17 years old. He had to get out of there."
Byss: Hahaha, jag har sovit fyra timmar och varit på äventyrsbad i Timråland med ungarna hela dagen och bilat 4 timmar tur och retur. Trötthjärnan var kvar i förstarundan fortfarande. Sorry team.
Jag reviderar mitt tips och säger att New York RANGERS vinner i sudden.
