    I went to the pub last night, and you know what was missing? Pre-season hockey. It's a noticeable absence.

    A few weeks ago on the news they interviewed a pub owner in Montreal and his business was down like 40% in the last lockout.

    As long as there playing by the playoffs is all that matters to me...I hardly watch regular season hockey and being in southern ontario the shitty team from Toronto is forced on is most Saturday nights...when the Wings are on I usually catch that...but for the most part I just watch playoff hockey.

    First we take Gretzky, now we take the team. :twisted:

    I would like to think this is just a negotiating technique. I'd imagine they will also be paying a visit to Kansas City as well.

    I'm glad I didn't plan on a Detroit trip for New Years. I'd be shitting my pants if I had a hotel booked and there was no hockey.

    What a whole bunch of assholes. Why they aren't locked in a room 24/7 to figure this out is a fucking mystery to me.

    Katz apologized for meeting with officials in Seattle last week in full-page ads in Edmonton-area newspapers that ran Saturday and then gave a radio interview on Monday where he explained that he reacted emotionally to the frustrated negotiations with the City of Edmonton.

    The Oilers owner added that "there was probably a little too much [bare-knuckled Mark] Messier and not enough [graceful Wayne] Gretzky in the way that we conveyed things."


    I think Katz realized he'd be run out of his hometown if he kept this up. Besides, Bettman said he wouldn't let him move the team. Not even the Count is dumb enough to let a team move from a hockey-mad city with a legendary legacy....With dollar parity, the Oil are as viable as most teams....valued in the middle of the pack. Would be a huge mistake.
    Plus, the Seattle arena group is focused almost solely on an NBA franchise.....But it would be cool to see them get a team, anyway. Give 'em the Panthers.


    They better get this shit sorted before winter hibernation starts up here (mid-dec).....watching hockey every other night is the only thing that keeps us (semi) sane up here.
