Forgot to comment on two big local sports media stories. First, huge congrats to Scott Morrison for his new gig with Rogers Sportsnet: “new Executive Producer of Hockey, effective immediately. He will also appear as an insider on Hockeycentral and Sportsnet Radio The FAN 590 and FAN 960, as well [...]
