It nice to here but in reality won't happen unless someone steps up with really deep pockets

On a side note I was reading an article on the Coyotes that said they started the whiteout in 2004

Its always amazed me seattle has no team. Figured they would at some point. Wouldnt mind seeing a team go to winnipeg.

Phoenix unfortunatley started out all wrong. Having gone to games in the old building you would know why.
In the old building if you sat on the end bowl you would have to watch the game on the jumbo tron when they came down to the end as the way the stands were set up you were literaly over the action. The league wants to keep the team there so it will be interesting to see what they do.

UHhhhhhhhh
Bye Wayne. Guess you can officially call his initial coaching stint a failure. Then again he wasnt exactly given a blank check or much to work with.

The Lightning and the Oilers are in Winnipeg tonight...Maybe the lighting will just stay

Crosby pulled his groin last night.

I also heard he might be injured.

on a non NHL related note...I just got back from doing the colour commentary for my first ever hockey game.

It was quite the experience and talk about technical difficulties. Next time will be much better and you guys could even listen in online

I will be waiting for a link, Matt!

Hawks finally get a PS win, Kane scored twice.

Biggest rumor in Chicago doesn't involve the Hawks, but their AHL team, the Wolves:

Chris Chelios tmay sign with the AHL's Chicago Wolves if he is unsuccessful in landing an NHL contract in the next week.

At 47 years of age it appears the chances of him signing an NHL deal is slim at best.

The Wolves opened up camp last week and there is a very strong chance Chelios arrives shortly thereafter. It makes sense for the veteran D-man to stay in Chicago where he's surrounded by family including his son who plays for the the Chicago Steel in the USHL.

That would be cool if it goes through. The Wolves have signed some older players in the past.
