- Bizarre. Torey Krug is a restricted free agent in limbo (also known as “Boston”), eligible for neither salary arbitration nor a Group II offer sheet.

- So Josh Gorges, who had Toronto on his no-trade list, rejected a trade to Toronto, and he’s the bad guy and subject to ridicule? Nonsense.

- I know what you — like me, and everyone else — were thinking when the Sharks lost four straight to the Kings after taking a 3-0 lead in the first round of the playoffs: This wouldn’t have happened if John Scott had been in the San Jose lineup.
