Bishop: I'll tell you, son. My main satisfaction is working with young people like yourself at our new Youth Center. Why don't you drop by some time?
Danny: I've often thought of entering the priesthood.
Bishop: Oh, are you, uh, Roman-Catholic?

Bishop: I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you can't come.
Lacey: Go for it.
Motormouth: You know, I've often thought about becoming a golf club.

Pending UFA Niklas Backstrom has signed a one-year deal in Finland with HIFK (Liiga)

Good for Niklas, he had a fine NHL career that was pretty tough the last couple of seasons due to injury, always nice to go back to your homeland to finish your career though.

My family are mostly Caps fans. They initially greeted this news with... let's just say not well.

I almost didn't want to point it out.

Apparently David Backes's house in ATL is up for sale. Looks like he's moving on. Where does he land? I've got a feeling it'll be Vancouver or LA.

Obviously we're still pretty far away from the start of the season so a lot can potentially be done, but while I'm sure they'd like to sign Backes I don't think that the Kings will be able to free up the cap space to do that. But like I said, there's still a lot of time and you never know.

Yeah they do have issues with the cap. I think they'll find a way to free up some money for somebody though.
