Welcome back, hockey.

Duarte left a Vintages magazine (avec scotch whisky feature) on my desk that made me realize: I have too much scotch at home. Let me rephrase: we’re not drinking it quickly enough. I suppose that’ll change with the temperature; whisky’s not really a summer drink. But if I remember correctly I have 15, 18 and 30 year old bottles of Macallan fine oak at home, not to mention half-finished bottles of Cardhu and Bruichladdich and god knows what else that I just can’t remember right now.

Speaking of hockey, I think I did ok in my NHL draft last night. Then again, I always think I did ok and I never win. Here’s the lineup:

• P. Forsberg
• B. Morrison
• M. Naslund
• B. Shanahan
• J. Jagr
• B. Hull
• S. Niedermayer
• S. Zubov
• W. Redden
• D. Tarnstrom
• P. Marleau
• D. Hasek
• J. Theodore
• S. Gagne (bench)
• P. Bondra (bench)
