What team beat writers are saying this afternoon:
- Ryan Miller got through a second full practice unscathed today. He’s close and that’s only good news for a Sabres team that has been hitting the tank.
- It looks like Matt Cullen (foot) will miss at least the next two games for Carolina. He doesn’t get much press, but he is far more valuable than people think.
- Adrian Dater thinks Peter Budaj’s time with the Avalanche comes to an end after this season. Can’t blame the Avs for that.
- Ken Hitchcock went off on his team at practice. Just classic Hitchcock being Hithcock.
- Dave Staples chimes in on the Hemsky controversial comments. See my take in the post below.
- After playing a ton lately, the Devils get the day off today. Good coaching by Sutter. You need your team rested for the playoffs.
