from Greg Wyshynski of Puck Daddy,

Dave Tippett, the target of Dater’s snark, is the head coach the Phoenix Coyotes. The “@BabyDocScott” is the account of Scott Schnee, a doctor who works at Banner Health Clinic in Mesa, Arizona.

“Go catch a movie in Aurora” is a reference to the July 20, 2012, mass shooting at a midnight screening of “The Dark Knight Rises” in Aurora, Colorado. “Jessica” is a reference to Jessica Ghawi a.k.a. Redfield, an aspiring hockey writer based near Denver that Dater eulogized on his Denver Post blog.
