Aug 27, 2008 | 5:35AM | Spector
This August has been a much quieter time for real NHL news
than in recent ones post-lockout, and for good reason: most NHL reporters were
either on vacation or covering the recent Summer Olympics in Beijing, while most
NHL general managers and their staff were vacationing or off on scouting
missions.
Of course idle hands are the devil’s work and some folks

2009 Winter Classic
Jul 07, 2008 | 10:29AM | NHLGuy14
Last season’s Winter Classic showdown between the Pittsburgh

it had been scripted (Of course, if Hollywood’s writers were doing it, it would

shootout and a ligh... Read More
