On the Jonathan Bernier situation:
I’m glad Bernier accepted the conditioning assignment. I think that part has sort of been underplayed. As part of the CBA, a player doesn’t have to do it. He really could’ve made this more awkward if possible; more uncomfortable. A player has to buy into a conditioning assignment. Imagine if he said no? It’s interesting –I traded emails with Bill Ranford earlier this week. I was curious to see what he thought about all this. When the Kings traded Bernier to Toronto, I can tell you that Bill Ranford and Dean Lombardi and a number of people in that Kings front office, who I think you guys believe have a clue about how to win, they were sick to their stomach trading Jonathan Bernier.
