In my opinion he acted completely as he ought to have in that situation, and I'm pumped to watch him next year.

When you say you covered him, do you mean casually as a fan or are you in sports journalism?

Sports journalism. The NHL is the sport I predominantly cover, although I get to do baseball every now and then. I covered a lot of baseball for ESPN's wire service during summers in college. Lots of fun.

Jupiter tops Mother Nature, St. Lucie

Though innings limit near, Jose Fernandez is Marlins big draw

Cool! Hockey is the one major team sport I have never followed at all, but you should post some of your pieces to hubski. Always good to see the #sports tag in use.

Cool. I read of few of your pieces for the Panthers. The recent piece on Thomas was a great read. Hopefully, there will be more good news for you to report this year after last year's giant step back (but I kind of doubt it). I think that both FL teams added can't miss type players in the draft, but that both teams still have some major issues defensively (that's why I was kind of taken aback that both passed on Jones, who I think will be a stud). Anyway, I'll get to see them a lot more than in the past now that Detroit (my home town) is in their division, although I definitely feel bad for both teams with the new alignment. The new Atlantic is a beast, and the FL teams may get beat up on quite a bit. But still, it's always fun to get to watch Stamkos, which I have missed out on quite a bit.
