Hats off to Jimmy Dowd

On the very bottom of Russo's Rants, he mentioned that Jim Dowd retired today.

One can only tell, from television, but Jim Dowd always appeared to be a very good man, and an excellent example of how a professional hockey player carries himself. He played all of, or part of, 16 seasons at the NHL level.

Congrats on a fine journey in pro hockey Jim, and good luck in your next stage of life.

Watched him do so

On NHL Live today. You want proof he’s a good guy? Bruno said so right there on live TV / radio. If Bruno says you are a good guy, you are a good guy.

Bruno also said that he told Schultz the other day that coming to the rink knowing Dowd would be there always made it a little bit better of a day. Pretty cool.

Congrats Jimmy.
