Good afternoon from gorgeous Vancouver, where there are no bad days.

View from my hotel room
I'll be on KSTP at 5:20 p.m. today with shock jock Michael Rand
Just returned from lunch, turned on the TV, searched for my poker hero Daniel Negreanu (not kidding) and ran into the Ottawa 67s-Mississauga playoff game on Rogers Sportsnet, so now I'm watching Tyler Cuma (2008 Wild first-rounder) play. The kid's got a nasty shiner on his left cheek. Appears I'm just an idiot and all the 67s have something painted on their left cheeks.
"Everyone just forgets what kind of player this guy is," says the color guy. "Tyler Cuma is a tough, physical defenseman. He gets forgotten about in this Ottawa lineup."
Roamed around the renovated Vancouver Canucks locker room this morning and got to check in with Ryan Johnson and Darcy Hordichuk, a couple former Panthers players. Also chatted with Roberto Luongo, who turned 31 today, for awhile.
