  1. I don't think they fired him, they're just sitting him out for the rest of these playoffs. I'll believe he's gone when it actually happens, kinda like how we were told Pierre was getting demoted and he ended up being on TV just as much this past season.

     

    Milbury also caught it for saying a couple weeks ago that the completely empty stands in the bubble looked like a women's game. You can maybe hold onto your gig despite trading away Luongo or Chara, but it's gonna be a lot harder for the bosses to ignore you doing both.

    The Kenosha Kingfish (Northwoods League summer-collegiate) announce they will be playing baseball this year, in the form of a two-team series against a to-be-named Kenosha-branded team.

     

    Name-the-team contest runs until 4 PM Central tomorrow...I voted for them to bring back one of the league's "original five" and 1995 Champions (which you can find on my sig), the Kenosha Kroakers!

    Submitting "Fielders" because there's no better name if you're making a team from whole cloth to play against you and calling it a season.

    There aren't that many AHL teams left that would be easily purchased and moved.  Nothing more than that.

     

    I'd have to think, with the 1:1 ratio and so many AHL teams now NHL owned, the selling price for a team might be at a premium, relatively speaking. Don Levin says he hasn't heard an offer to his liking yet, but the Spurs obviously did, and Don many not be in a position to turn down offers much longer.

  4. It will be hilarious if the Blues have to go back to the Wolves for their affiliation, given that the two organizations hated each other by the time their deal ended. It will be far less amusing if Dave Andrews uses this as an opportunity to force the Wolves out of the league as his last action before he :censored: s off into the sunset.

     

    The Blues have little other choice, though. As @rams80 noted, the reason they got stuck with the Wolves the first time around is because they "couldn't afford" to own and operate the Peoria Rivermen anymore, so they sold the Rivs to Vancouver. Maybe the coffers are a bit more full after the Cup, but this is a franchise that was cool with casting its prospects to the four winds until San Antonio opened up, so I doubt it.

    Good

    1) St. Louis- The helmet is a bit busy, but the colours work well together and it's a pretty clean look.

    2) New York- This would be #1 but the monochrome black knocks it down.

    3) DC Defenders- It's a very simple identity, but it's also very clean. Again, held back by monochrome.

    4) Dallas Renegades- It's very vibrant and very fun. I like how the colours work together, it's just...monochrome.

     

    I wouldn't be surprised to see a fair bit of switching of pants and jerseys between the sets as the season wears on. I don't expect full-time monochrome from all the teams showcasing it tonight.
