from Jamie Fitzpatrick of Jamie’s Hockey Blog at About.com,
With a few exceptions, mainstream hockey reporters no longer dismiss the Internet as a wasteland of inarticulate fanboy rants and lame trade rumors.
There’s a growing acceptance of hockey blogs as part of the essential reading in today’s NHL.
A gulf remains between bloggers and traditional hockey media. The best newspaper reporters and broadcasters remain the best sources for news and perspective.
But the bloggers have their strengths as well. One field where they are well ahead of the guys in the press box is in the use of hockey statistics.
continued & as an added feature, if you click the first link in Jamie’s blog, you get to see IwoCPO of A2Y in action from a feature HNIC did on bloggers a few seasons ago. Also The Puck Stops Here gets a mention along with numerous other blogs.
