Loyal WatchDog reader Kenny Albert, presumably inspired by Anthony Rieber's piece on Feb. 29 birthdays, sent along this link to a Canadian Press story about Henri Richard, who celebrates his 18th birthday today.
Albert also sent a reminder that Brian Leetch's first game as a Ranger was 20 years ago today, Feb. 29, 1988.

From the files of.....
What if Long Island had a hometown team, but nobody told the hometown newspaper?
Here I was, all excited....
Feb 29, leap year.
The extra day of the year....
The day when the Islanders, LONG ISLAND'S ONLY HOMETOWN TEAM....
Receives their once every 4 years back page coverage in THE HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER...
After all,
They played last night....
They won in overtime....
They are still in the playoff chase.....
And what are we Isles fans and the rest of LONG ISLAND treated to?
A juvenile bitchfight between the New York METROPOLITAN'S Milledge and Wright.
About as newsworthy as the tampon dispenser breaking down in the locker room at Sacred Heart Academy..
Ya gotta wonder why the hometown newspaper is crying the financial blues when.......
A/They "giveaway their content for free"
B/They generally ignore the only hometown team they have.
