    Sale of Lightning, Oilers Approved

    Wednesday, June 18, 2008, 03:56 PM EST [NHL]

    Today, the NHL Board of Governors approved the sale of two NHL Franchises: the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Edmonton Oilers.

    Daryl Katz will be the new owner in Edmonton while Tampa Bay has a group on investors.

    We know what direction the Lightning are heading in, with Steven Stamkos being the No. 1 pick, and with Vincent Lecaviller and Martin St. Louis in the lineup, things are looking sunny in Tampa.

    Don't know how things will shape up in Edmonton, it's a toss up right now, but hope for the best there.

    I'll be back tomorrow with some pre-draft thoughts.

    Until then, keep it happening,

    Rosie
