Not yet, so not for at least another fifteen minutes. Or whenever he gets there.

ok, not all that interesting. Ted talking about his life philosophy and such. but he did get asked, “who are you rooting for in the Olympics?”

“Not Canada!” USA and Russia, he says.

Usual questions about Ted’s interactions with the fans and using twitter and his blog.

Well there you have it

With 29 other owner groups and their GM’s rushing out the door now (along with you me and gfcaps fn no doubt) at $18.45 a pop (Amazon), he’s just raking in the dough from this lucrative PR stop…

On The Fly appearance

Anyone else hear this? I was just watching Ted doing an interview on “On The Fly” and he was talking about creating a culture of happiness throughout the organization and mentioned that it goes “right down to our team in Richmond” then mentions Hershey as well.

Did I mishear, was this an innocent slip, or do you think that Ted could be pursuing an ECHL affiliate in Richmond, Va., either by expansion, reviving the Renegades or relocating the Stingrays?

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.
