The Tragically Hip's lead singer Gord Downie was auditioning this week for a role as Hall of Fame goaltender Ken Dryden in a made-for-TV miniseries about the 1972 Summit Series.
As I type this, there is a picture of Paul Henderson celebrating "The Goal" in 1972 on the wall above while "Grace, Too" from The Tragically Hip escapes my speakers. What a lovely collision of passions.
