from Stan Fischler at The Maven,
• If Ryan Smyth bolts from the Islanders at season’s end - and there’s no guarantee that he will - the ex-Oiler won’t return to Edmonton. If Smyth goes west, Calgary will be his destination. However, we’d rather see him back on the Island.
• No expansion is being planned by the NHL - at least not at this moment - but Las Vegas keeps coming up in conversations with hockey people. One apocryphal tale has Sin City so desperate for a big-league hockey team that big-time casinos would combine to ensure sellouts for every single game.
• With all the fuss about Ted Saskin, one fact that most have overlooked is that the union’s leader is innocent until proved otherwise although frequent sinbin-sinner, Chris Chelios would have the world think otherwise.

Wouldn’t this be like Denis Potvin signing with the Rangers?

How does Fischler figure the Flames could afford Smyth when Iginla and Kipper have one year left on their contracts?
Nope, Smyth will never be a Flame.

That should also be “until proven.” (As long as we are red-penning his grammar.)

So Chris Chelios’s penchant for penalties earlier in his career means that his judgment isn’t valid?
Whatever, dude…
