There's not much better entertainment than to watch the Avs play the Wings, I'll give you that....

Still in mourning in Colorado...end the lockout!

Hockey must be one of those games that's more fun to play than to watch. It's like soccer on ice to me. Never played it, though.

[N. Theknow]

Hopefully, Archie is watching a much better match now. Maybe he is even playing, in an arena where he can skate and never grow weary.

When so many teams are in the red you have to conclude it is the PLAYERS who are greedy.

Thanks for the head's up, retrok.

Hockey Ping!

He also asked Bettman to step aside and give retired NHL superstar Wayne Gretzky the top job running the league.

In a way I expect something like that to end up happening. If the NHL folds, and I think it's increasingly likely, Gretzky would be the one individual who'd have the credibility to get a new professional league started.

I've never been to an NHL game, and I may be too cheap to enjoy one if I went. However, I've been in a couple of cities with minor league teams, and I love seeing minor league hockey. Unfortunately, Baton Rouge lost the Kingfish after the 2003 season, and we won't likely get another team for some time. I've watched some NHL on TV. I like it, but I'd enjoy having a team back in Baton Rouge more than I'd like having the NHL back.
