Check out these pictures of Alex Ovechkin and Ryan Kesler skating in Vegas. (H/T to Kukla) Looks like those guys are having fun. Puck the Media compares the Versus coverage to that of NBC. While there were certainly things to complain about, the ratings say that people were watching despite the shortcomings. Fang's Bite hands out its end of season NHL broadcast awards. Pretty good stuff if you follow the guys behind the mic. The Biz of Hockey blog offers its take on the Phoenix situation. Right back where we started from. Not to beat a dead horse (skunk?), but do yourself a favor and read the latest gems from Black Dog Hates Skunks. The Satan line is very funny. Mirtle has a nice mock draft going. Good draft with some obvious thought put into the selections. Max Hockey has a twist on the mock draft, with some mock free agent signings! Interesting spin to say the least. Though I can't see some of the moves, such as Khabibulin to Edmonton. Is he going to work at a Rexall?
