I’m having a busy day and I won’t be watching the game tonight, so in lieu of TWC content, I will direct your attention to ModFan, where the Ookies and I recently had a conversation about the top-secret spy skillz of Drew Stafford. (spoiler alert!) He’s, um, not a very good spy.

Kate, this might be the best minus meander this year. Ohh its sooooo sad.

Poor Jagr.
THAT IS THE BEST MINUS MEANDER EVER. Poor Jagr!
Hahahahaha! Jagr and his big ol J-Lo butt!
Yayyyy Marty! I was kinda going for Montreal but now I find myself really rooting for Marty B. every time!
I really have no opinion on Drew Stafford’s spy skills, or Mullet Boy’s minus meander. I just wanted to salute the Barenaked Ladies reference in the header. It’s all about upbeat, quirky Canadian “rock” music. What would hockey be without it?
Oh, and Kate? If I had a million dollars, I’d buy you a green dress. (But not a real green dress, that’s cruel.)
