This week in anguish:

- We complete the final leg of our heads-in-the-sand marathon with Breakfast TV's broadcast from the smoldering wreckage of June 2011, What a Season.

- Mere waves in a sea of clever commentary, we make note of things like the revelation of the Seahawk parentage of the Green Men, hazy recollections of the Towel Power suit man, and a deep dive into the musical and copyright stylings of Jon Mikl Thor. 

- Tyler Motte is this year's Canucks Masterton trophy nominee. Just who was Bill Masterton, anyhow?

- Mikey Michael DiPietro, the sharing of the Comets, and the unravelling of Kevin Woodley.

- Enough, Tyler Toffoli. Enough.

- Barry MacDonald was back on the airwaves, and we ask How Did We Not Know about the link between depression and Parkinson's disease. 

- Ardella has been grinding her Department of Player Safety axe for weeks now, and finally takes her swing.

- We need a song. (We need a song!) So why shouldn't we turn to the call-and-response stylings of 1992's Newsies
