Nicely said, Adam.

Mike was always a good guy to have around - never took himself or the team too seriously. He'll be missed for sure

RIP, Mike

*I apologize, but the links won't seem to become active

^^A glitch in the site? Probably the most appropriate hockeybuzz.com tribute, really.

Well done Mr. French. Humorous, poignant and touching.

I can't recall having ever conversed with Mr. Spittal, but I'll hit up the GoFundMe page. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Condolences from a Sabres fan.

Also:

Hockeybuzz is different and so much more interesting.

It's a place with professional writers, up and coming writers (Look no further than Yost and Engels), amateur writers and James Tanner.

Thoughts and prayers to the family for healing from this loss, and that they overcome the challenges ahead. Your tribute serves as a reminder that we're more than this site, and a community of hockey lovers.

Well done.
