Other stuff

• Last night’s NHL scores. The Oilers lose again and everyone in the top half of the Metro won.
• The Stars retired the number of Jere Lehtinen, a very unique player and one of my personal favorites of the 90’s. Despite the three Selke Trophies, it still feels like he was super underrated. Hilariously, the Stars won the game in a very un-Lehtinen like way.
• The new NHL 100 documentary is available to view here at Sportsnet in four parts. I think it’ll also be running on NBCSN.
