loved these:

9. Speaking of Pavel Datsyuk, walked with him to a photo of the 2002 Stanley Cup champions. I pointed at Steve Yzerman and the first words out of Datsyuk's mouth were "hockey heart." Then he talked about how much he learned from watching Yzerman during those playoffs, how the captain could barely walk into arenas but when the game started, you couldn't tell. That really meant something to the young Russian.

29. Line of the Week goes to Tomas Holmstrom, discussing the 2002 champion's fourth line - him, Igor Larionov and Luc Robitaille: "I was the fastest of the three." Holmstrom is not known for his speed, but, geez, what a 10th, 11th and 12th forward to throw at other teams.

"The old saying is, "Be careful what you wish for." But maybe the Blackhawks are exactly what Vancouver needs. You cannot exorcize your demons without slaying the biggest one."

Exactly how I feel.
