Today is Sunday, January 24th and it's National Compliment Day in the United States. Seeing as how the US and Canada are good friends, I figure it can be National Compliment Day in Canada as well. So on with some compliments.

Brian Burke - You're really good at building a playoff caliber team.

Ron Wilson - You're among the best special teams coaches in the NHL.

[Vesa Toskala](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54305/Vesa%5FToskala?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) \- Kids across the world hope to one day be as good at goalie as you are.

[Phil Kessel](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54905/Phil%5FKessel?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) \- The great orators of our day pale in comparison to your mastery of the spoken word.

[Jason Blake](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54322/Jason%5FBlake?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) \- Where can I get a great tan like yours?

[Rickard Wallin](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/72258/Rickard%5FWallin?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) \- Where did you get those silky smooth hands?

[Tomas Kaberle](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54289/Tomas%5FKaberle?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) \- No better shot from the point in the game.

That's all the compliments I have for now. Look for part two of this series on March 27th, National Opposite Day!
