I regret to advise that, because of the withdrawal of Richard Wright, I have been asked to speak on my other favorite subject. Fortunately, it’s the last panel on the relevant day so I won’t have  bore the audience too long with the failures of the Canuck mgt and why it wsn’t their goalies’ fault. Usually.
