Last month I was contacted by Adam Proteau of The Hockey News.  Adam was working on the cover story for the September 7th edition of the magazine."We're hoping to get a one-or-two sentence comment from a blogger in each of the 30 NHL cities regarding what one theme, issue or player (in their marketplace) they're excited to see this coming season."I had a hard time coming up with a sentence or two, as well as one theme or player.  So I sent Adam four questions (as seen in the image on the right):Who will standout in goal, the vet or the rookie?Will Mike Knuble crashing the net put the offense over the top?Is there room on the blueline for a fresh face like Karl Alzner?How will Alex Ovechkin amaze us this year?With training camp opening tomorrow, it's a good time to ask our readers "What are you excited about this season?"  Leave us a comment with your reply had Adam contacted you (and try to keep it under 45 words since there was a space constraint for all the participating blogger).It's not often you get your name published in The Hockey News, so I thank Adam for inducing me in the cover story.
