  • The latest on the lockout:
    • We've heard it before, but today's seems to be an important day in the negotiations (or lack thereof). [CBC, ESPN, SI]
    • Believe it or not, the sides agree on a lot of relatively meaningless things. [Toronto Star, Puck Daddy]
    • They'd probably also agree that their bickering isn't endearing either side to its fans. [ESPN (epic rant from Buccigross), Globe and Mail, Backhand Shelf, Buffalo News]]
    • Of course, there's plenty on which they don't appear to be anywhere close to agreement. [Puck Daddy]
    • And while Gary Bettman has many strengths, diplomacy isn't exactly one of them. [Backhand Shelf]
    • But if you want him fired... be careful what you wish for... [The Spin]
    • ... the next "idiot" may not make you quite so wealthy... [CBS]

  • Finally, "Gary Bettman ordering a pizza" is your moment of zen. [Down Goes Brown]
