Paper cuts and snail mail: In defense of old-school billing

3 weeks ago | mcknights.com | Mark Fischer

I confess: I’m the anachronism in the accounting department who still sighs nostalgically at the sight of a postage stamp. In an era of sleek, seamless billing systems that generate digital statements at the click of a button, automatically ping responsible parties, and reconcile payments before you can say “accounts receivable,” I find myself pining for the good old days.

Amanda Stein @amandacstein

#NJDevils are without Dillon and Luke at morning skate today. Here’s how the lines are shaping up… Will wait on official word from HC Keefe later on availabilities. • Nemec, Cholowski taking 3rd pair reps • Cody Glass taking a regular rep at 3C • Tatar in, Sprong out https://t.co/YL8izqQXf7

While I'm not expecting much from this team—no Jack and the lack of trades as a result—cemented this as a lost season. That said, the Devils have a strong powerplay and penalty kill and a potential game-breaker in net. That recipe has worked for playoff teams in the past...

New Jersey Devils History @DevilsOfYore

Aside from a handful of games, all of which happened before Dec. 28, this regular season has been absolutely no fun. It’s mind-blowing. I can’t think of another season like this where the Devils actually ended up making the playoffs. Thankfully, it’s over.
