Your Friendly Tuesday Links Roundup: The I Looked Justin Schultz Directly In The Eyes And Lived To Tell The Tale

I had the opportunity to see Bad Justin/The Dark Lord/He Who Spurned Anaheim play hockey in person for the first time over the weekend. He was just as advertised: smooth skater, power play quarterback (even though it's too early to say if his transition to the NHL will be smooth). And the crowd booed him pretty loudly. Hee hee.

Also, watch this interview with John Gibson.
