Some news

Hi folks... a couple of quick pieces of site news.

First, as you may have noticed there's no new post today. Starting this week, my regularly scheduled posts will be appearing on Tuesdays and Saturdays (both here and in the Post). So check back tomorrow. My apologies in advance to readers who may now be forced to pay attention in class and/or at work.

Second, I'm going to be writing a monthly feature called The NHL's Three Stars of Comedy over at Grantland. The October edition just went live, and you can check it out here. I'll also be chipping in additional Grantland posts from time to time.

Thanks again for your continued support.

  1. Grantland is going to have someone who actually knows something about hockey? It's about time. I'm tired of Bill Simmons talking about hockey like it's that quaint little sport that no one understands. If you can, please tell Simmons to stop talking about hockey at all. He's embarrassing himself.

  7. Congrats on the Grantland job. This is by far the funniest hockey blog on the web and Grantland could use some major help as far as hockey is concerned.

  8. Katie Baker started writing for Grantland a few weeks ago, so now DGB doubles the number of hockey writers there. Agreed on telling BS to stop saying anything about hockey and embarassing himself. (And don't get me wrong, I love Simmons' writing, he's just utterly clueless about hockey. As a huge NBA fan I suppose this is to be expected.)

    "[Phil Kessel] was most famously seen when he was the last player picked in the inaugural NHL All-Star fantasy draft, at which point Alexander Ovechkin made a big show out of snapping a picture. Ovechkin, of course, had been picked early in the draft, because he never makes it out of the second round of anything."

    Brilliant!

  9. Ditto on the congratulations. You're joining a lot of great sportswriting over there, and I think it's well deserved.

  10. As an air traffic controller, I must say that I'm very disapointed at the new change as I often spend countless hours each day reading this site on my smartphone (there is some sort of desktop here at work, but it's a crappy old monochrome thingy that just shows a bunch of dots and numbers and stuff and I can't figure out how to access the web with it)
