Any last hopes of a Mats Zuccarello extension with the Minnesota Wild before July 1 are officially dead.
@RussoHockey and @JoeSmithNHL are reporting that he's pissed... and now dead set on hitting free agency.

“Jimmy Burrows was the man behind the curtain. He knew how to make us laugh, what buttons to push and was the absolute master of getting the most out of every joke. His loss to the television comedy world is immeasurable. Every time you have a smile on your face watching ‘The Mary Tyler Moore Show,’ ‘Taxi, ‘Cheers,’ ‘Will & Grace,’ ‘Friends’ and countless others, think of Jimmy and know he made all our lives funnier.”
