This week in anguish:

• Did you see how hard we carpe'd that diem? And since that's all that matters in this workaday world...job well done, I suppose.

• But seriously, folks. Jim Benning finally had to face some media questions  and we have thoughts about how that went. Like, an hour of thoughts. Let's go.

• Move over, Ice Chips! Your forty-plus-year reign of being a perfectly fine use of the bottom corner of Province hockey articles is over. Make way for One-Timers, Ardella's new segment of snappy little bits of ephemera that matter even less than all the other stuff we talk about. Jack Rathbone's hair! A Jyrki-versary! That kind of thing!
