    Sirs, Madames,

    If you're going to steal, you could go slightly more obscure.

    Hands up, those who know what a Pratt is in English slang? Aptly named.

    YD&OHS, etc

    Pratt was a one-time TSN talking head too. I see him on occasion on Sportsnet West on the simulcast of his afternoon radio show. No, I don't know why.

    Bob Cole is retiring? The new guy had better call the home of the Red Wings "De-TROY-it."

    I've seen YD&OHS, etc. a number of times on here. I'll admit my ignorance. What does it mean?

    Not retiring. He'll do regular season games but word is that Jim Hughson will be calling the Final.
