You can feel it in the air even all the way down here.....opening night is almost here. I'm always pleased to see the summer go, much different than when I was a kid going to school. Tomorrow night we'll have real NHL hockey to watch.
I'll be joining the Rodent and the crew over at the BlueShirt Bulletin for tomorrow night's chat.....I may be late but I hear it begins early....like 7 pm.
Daily News - "...the Rangers go into the 2006-07 season with legitimate Stanley Cup aspirations."
Newsday - "First of all, he [Shanahan] doesn't know our game because he's not from Europe," Jagr said yesterday. "He likes to go to the net. He's probably wondering what those guys are doing in the corners."
Leave it to the NY Times to bum you out - Jordan Smith’s professional hockey career ended abruptly last season when a slap shot caromed and struck him in the left eye.
We know, hockey is an inherently dangerous sport......but thanks for reminding us. Isn't there a Washington leak you should be publishing?
Marc Staal will play on the same team as his little brother....that's cool.
In NHL news it seems the lockout isn't over for some. Hey, the lawyers need the extra money I guess. "Unfortunately, this lawsuit has become necessary after months of stonewalling by the union," Chelios said in statement. "On behalf of more than 100 NHL players, we continue to seek full disclosure by the NHLPA of the events leading up to Bob Goodenow's departure and the hijacking of the union by a handful of other players."
Cap-speak over at Spector's soapbox.
If you've already listened to the podcast and still need a hockey fix, may I suggest listening online to the Fan? No, not WFAN in NY with all baseball & football talk....the Fan in Toronto.
Speaking of Baseball.....LET'S GO METS!
Oh....ok, um.....Go Yanks.
**Update** There's a new Birdcage to get you into Opening Night mode.
