08:20 AM ET 05.29 | Is there NHL life left in 24-year-old Steve Mason's game, despite his numbers in 2011-12 being among the worst in the NHL? The most irritating aspect of Mason's game right now to current NHL goaltenders or goalie coaches? His body language. The way his shoulders stoop, and the way he looks up to the rafters in disgust after allowing a bad goal is a huge no-no at that position. ... Mason played better under coach Todd Richards -- especially in the final 20 games -- than he did under his predecessor, Scott Arniel. ... Ask NHL GMs, coaches and scouts if Mason can resurrect his career and you get mixed results, almost 50-50. Ask if he can do it with the Blue Jackets, and almost nobody thinks it's possible.

Although I like Mason, he's not a top 10 goalie in the league. Put a lousy defensive team in front of him and he's bottom 10 (see Columbus).

if the Devils weren't in the Finals (note to T&R...there are SCF starting this week. if you can find your way past the Blue jackets, Sens and Detroit's f/a exploits, you may see something about it)
we'd be getting the Parise to The Wild stories

Hmm a Hitchcock goalie not playing as well once he's not with Hitch sounds eerily similar to a Tippett goalie who found his way to Philly

It no longer matters what he thinks. Nash is leaving . . . . . for Detroit. ;-)
