Hockey update
First, I need to brush off my hockey icons.
Second -- Khabibulin is no longer a Bolt. He's gone off to Chicago for a 4 yr $27 million deal. I know they picked up a goalie in the draft.
Third, today I read a couple of pieces pointing out that Tampa couldn't afford Marty, Vinny, and Nik. Some one would have to go. 1 writer didn't say who, the other was adamant that it should be Marty. Nik is needed at net, Vinny is the cornerstone of the team (According to this person, I think I'd dispute that) and Marty's size will be a liability. Plus he's old. Marty's 30. Yes, it's sports, yes that's getting up there, but all the big name free agents signd are 30+.
I'll be glad when hockey starts, I miss it.

I haven't followed hockey for years, but now that I'm back in St. Louis (Blues! The source of all my middle-school celeb crushes), I'm sure I'll be sucked right in.

Hopefully this season I'll get to at least one (maybe 2) Tamap games.
