BOSTON -- Canucks President and General Manager Mike Gillis, who has been given much of the credit for building a Stanley Cup- caliber team, acknowledged he has a difficult time watching Vancouver play because of the emotional roller coaster that comes with the job. Gillis was hardly relaxing today even though the Canucks won the first two games over the Bruins in the Stanley Cup final and can take full command with another win tomorrow night in Game Three. Both games were extremely tight with neither team holding a lead greater than one goal.
The NHL, with an arbiter backing its stance Monday that Ilya Kovalchuk's contract with the Devils was illegal, reportedly is ready to go on the offensive against other front-loaded deals. The Vancouver Sun received an e-mail from Canucks General Manager Mike Gillis confirming the league is investigating goalie Roberto Luongo's 12-year contract. Arbitrator Richard Bloch, during the Kovalchuk ruling, referred to four other long-term contracts: deals signed by Luongo, Philadelphia's Chris Pronger, Chicago's Marian Hossa and Boston's Marc Savard.
Girl Talk has come a long way since the days of playing warehouses, basements and half-empty art galleries in semi- forgotten corners of Pittsburgh. Now a planet-spanning pop music phenomenon and one-man musical Zeitgeist, Girl Talk -- also known as Gregg Gillis, 28, of Polish Hill -- is headlining an outdoor show of all local bands Friday night at the Amphitheatre at Station Square. The lineup reflects Girl Talk's unclassifiable, genre-jumping music, ranging from hardcore hip-hop (Wiz Khalifa) to heavy psychedelia (Modey Lemon), to complex instrumental rock (Don Caballero). It's a virtual all- star team of Pittsburgh music, selected by Gillis and Opus One Productions' Mike Sanders.

Here's the news ... As the new volunteer coordinator for Stray Hearts Animal Shelter, I will be reaching out to our community to all the animal-loving people who want to share their time with our deserving animals. People who feel that any day they spend time with an animal is a good day. However, I am still on the board and am so proud to be in the company of such incredible pro-active people who "walk their talk:" Lisa Davis as president, Eddy Cone, Mike Petree, Jeff Northrup, Thom Wheeler, Charlie Strong, Nora Lovell and Katie Gillis. I want to make sure our community knows that we are people who do not just "sit" on a board, but we are there making things happen for the animals in our care. We work closely with Executive Director Dave Noll and Shelter Manager Cindy Sharfin. Please b...
This is a fresh start, so let's agree the Buffalo Sabres are no longer the franchise you've known and loved, or the one you've chastised, for the better part of four decades. This is a new era with a new owner and a new way of thinking that is foreign and yet fantastic. See, winning now comes first in Buffalo. Wait, is this the longest dream in history or some dirty trick cooked up by those nasty, filthy hockey gods and their sick sense of humor?
