Cartoonist Scott Stantis is obviously against Pat Quinn's reelection as Governor of Illinois. The cartoon portrays Illinois as a wrecked ship at the bottom of the sea. The sing showing, "Quinn again" lets a person to think that if Quinn is reelected, there will not be any change. Stantis' point is that Illinois needs a change. Stantis clearly makes his point obvious with this cartoon.

Pierre Lebrun is an excellent hockey columnist. Upon reading various articles over the past weeks, it has caught my attention that he informs the audience about what has been happening in the hockey world, especially the NHL. Lebrun gives the facts that any NHL fan would like to know. For example, a few weeks prior he wrote about Ryan Johansen's contract dispute with the Columbus Blue Jackets. He wrote about both sides coming to an agreement. I have come to the realization that Lebrun does not fully connect with society, but I believe Lebrun's view on society would be an informed society is the best society.

Former NHL defenseman and 'tough guy' Chris Pronger was appointed a position on the NHL's Player Safety Department. It is common that former players are hired by the NHL or an NHL team's front office, but it is extremely rare that a person is hired while under contract with an NHL team. Chris Pronger suffered from a career ending concussion, but he had not announced his retirement from the game of hockey.
Lebrun does not take a side. He simply states the facts of the situation and informs the audience of Pronger's situation with the Philadelphia Flyers and his career.
