Thank You Igloo
It's not quite time to say goodbye, but we all are anyway. I've never physically been inside the Igloo before, but that doesn't mean I've never been there.

Sympathy For The Devil
Miroslav Satan scored a highlight reel goal against Edmonton last night that was very similar to one scored by Rick Nash last season. The only problem is that while the hockey world was abuzz after the Nash goal, I have yet to here a peep about Satan's beauty. Coincidence? Anti-Penguin bias? Anti-Euro bias? People forgetting that there are players on the Pens not named Crosby...

Do More Pucks In The Net Mean More Butts In The Seats?
Are Gary Bettman and Co. going too far with their planned restrictions on NHL goalies? Are we headed back to the 80's where goalies did little more than pick the puck out of the net after feebly attempting to stop it? One can only hope that the NHL's powers that be will ultimately learn that more goals does not automatically equate to better hockey.
