I don't know if I would call him the last asshole coach b/c I hate Ken Hitchcock a whole lot, but it's pretty otm otherwise.

There is a strange dichotomy in NHL ownership. The owners, whether as companies or individuals, are extremely wealthy. Yet many teams reportedly lose money every year, and with few exceptions even the profitable clubs don’t make that much money. Why would phenomenally successful men sink money into a black hole like that? Is it simply a case of viewing hockey teams as luxuries where they can afford to bleed red a little?
While non-financial considerations undoubtedly come into play, the simplest explanation is that the financial picture for various NHL teams is a lot healthier than it is typically reported to be.

Some shell game shit going on here imo.

bill simmons takes time out of his busy schedule of nba/pr0n/80s movies-watching to shit on gary bettman. he narrowly avoids saying 'can we make this happen?'

sounds like the hardline clubs are those in non-hockey markets like nashville/tampa/columbus that need extra concessions from the players to survive. philly daily news reported that flyers owner ed snider is getting fed up and wants to play, although the league has denied any dissension in the ranks.

Canadians playing outdoor hockey on a frozen lake. Kind of freaky but cool. How they even see the puck coming I have no idea.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- A Detroit Red Wings prospect faces charges under Michigan's tough "super drunk" designation following a traffic stop during which police discovered him clad in a Teletubby costume.

According to a Grand Rapids police report obtained by MLive.com, Riley Sheahan twice registered a blood alcohol level of .30 percent when tested in jail after his arrest on Oct. 29.

Police say the 20-year-old Grand Rapids Griffins center from St. Catharines, Ontario, was wearing the costume of a purple Teletubby known as Tinky Winky during the stop.
