Sub Puck: Just a few quick things, since I just got back from a week in Seattle (a great sports town that really should have an NHL franchise, especially with the Sonics about to leave. Plus, you have to love the location,...... , posted on August 06, 2007 more

Blue Ice: The AHL Rochester Americans are going to play two games on blue ice. The NHL seems to think this will somehow attract fans when hockey resumes. Of course. People don't watch hockey because of white ice. It's so obvious. I...... , posted on March 11, 2005 more

Lost Boys (and Men): So Forbes is saying the NHL owners are got a bit creative with their books and the losses aren't as bad as they said they were. That's not that surprising, though. It's been pretty widely reported that the owners don't...... , posted on November 15, 2004 more

Southern Fried Hockey: Meet Kevin Mitchell. He's your run-of-the-mill New Yorker: a Yankee fan, a Roger Clemens hater, and an AHL player. That's right. Mitchell is a New Yorker playing in the AHL. You don't see too many Bronx-born defenseman at any level...... , posted on February 06, 2004 more

Night of a Thousand Fights: I love NHL Center Ice and all, but I sometimes wish there was something more powerful. Something that could bring in AHL games. You know. Because of games like this one.
