Better Late Than Never

Our industrious and creative West Coast correspondent ran into technical difficulties and the East Coast USA office isn't at work so it fell to PPP Amalgamated Heavy Industries (Canada) to put up the FTB. Good thing Blurr did the heavy lifting. So without futher ado, your links:

• The Good Point's podcast (right-hand side) actually sounds like a radio show. Just ignore the fact that No-Goal-Ov (seriously, the guy from the McDonald's commercial) makes a dumb prediction and it's a pretty good podcast.

• Nobody said this season was going to be anything different from the same post-lockout story: Goaltending as a major weakness. Just kidding, we were told but we should have known better.

• Is It Really This Bad? A new MLHS writer (?) gives a pretty subjective dissertation on why it is actually this bad.

• The General lays out his battle plan for the rest of the season. No word on whether he was standing in front of a huge Leafs flag.

• Same shit, different year? Sometimes it feels like it.

• Hindsight is 20/20 but did you also know that foresight can be 20/20 as well? Pal Hal Pall knew and didn't tell us until today.

• Honestly, if Ron Wilson actually shot Toskala would anyone weep?

• Radio Friend Norman James is Red, White, and Blue.

• Did you know Jason Allison kept a diary? It's true...ish.

• Straight Outta SoCal wants to take a break but it's not for more rapping.

• James Mirtle interviews Globe colleague Michael Grange about his book. Where have I seen that before?
