OFB touches on the subject of NHL contraction.

What do you all think? I had mentioned in last night's game thread that I didn't think the NHL could support 30 teams. As much as I wouldn't want to see contraction or franchises moved, given the economic climate and forecast, it's certainly a possibility.

Something to talk about on an off day.

I heard the HNIC segment (too).

I think a better idea is contracting blogs. OFB would be a good place to start. (Ha! They can’t edit this comment into a compliment!)

I spilled my coffee after reading this comment. :)
I hope your happy.

I have as many wins in a Capitals uniform as Michael Belhumeur does.

OT Hockey 2/8

by Rather Bengt about 21 hours ago 328 comments

Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium. Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
