Which makes using stereotypical high-school yearbook superlatives and awards the appropriate template for Puck Daddy's 2008-09 NHL season previews, presented throughout September.

'We're not going to win the Stanley Cup'
mirtle.blogspot.com 9/29/2008 — “It was an exhibition game – it didn't bother me at all. What bothers me is being asked asinine questions while you're trying to give young players a chance.
