Here are your Puck Headlines: a glorious collection of news and views collected from the greatest blogosphere in sports and the few, the proud, the mainstream hockey media.
• Jersey foul? No, because Donna Meagle is perfect. Please, NBC, make Retta an NHL playoff analyst. [With Leather]
• The St. Louis Blues and LA Kings get dragged into a discussion on Middle East and nuclear policy somehow. This is kind of amazing. [Jewish Daily Forward]
• Brian Gionta is done for the rest of the playoffs, and if that wasn't enough, Michel Therrien made it a little worse by sharing this vulnerable moment with the world: "Our captain was crying in my arms when he learned he could not play anymore." Note: do not go to Michel Therrien for consolation. [National Post]
• In praise of how Marc-Edouard Vlasic "pickled" the Sedins in the Sharks' sweep. Yes, the Sedins are chutney now. [Sunbelt Hockey]
