Welcome back, dearest readers, and a most joyous of summer solstices to thee and thine. Let me start by expressing how grateful I feel that in both semi-final series of these Stanley Cup playoffs, the heavily discounted underdogs have put up a fight and kept things interesting. While no one around here wants to see Montreal fans happy and I had forgotten that the Islanders existed for years until they acquired JG Pageau, Vegas fans don’t deserve happiness because they just got here, and Ottawa’s expansion brethren in Tampa also deserve some misfortune of some sort after winning another championship last summer.
