I had a great time on Beaver Island even though the weather was a bit cool and drizzly at times.
Enjoyed getting back to nature for a few days and even enjoyed a concert by the Screaming Orphans (make sure to check out their multimedia page).
I was sorry to hear about the death of Jose Theodore’s infant son and my prayers go out to his family.
Both Dany Heatley and Bryan Murray talked, but what happens next is anyone’s guess.
I am still receiving “panic emails” from readers, waiting for that trade to be made. I am going to refer you to someithing I wrote on August 4th at my NHL.com blog...
I know fans want their team’s roster wrapped up in a little red bow so they can have a sense of relief that all is well and they can look forward to the upcoming season. Having the satisfaction of “the team is set” in early August is not going to happen. Those of us that live and die with our team are experiencing a little nervousness right about now, waiting for something to happen—and happen soon.
We know what moves need to be made, but frankly, many of those moves may not come until we get much closer to early September, and some of our hopeful moves may not be seen as a necessity by the GM, so we just may have to live with what we have.
One more thing. It looks like changes coming in Tampa according to David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail,
Those close to Len Barrie say he is likely to throw in the towel on his one-year run as co-owner of the NHL’s Tampa Bay Lightning next Saturday, clearing the way for (sparring) partner Oren Koules to take over.
