from Bill Roose of DetroitRedWings.com,
The Red Wings have three days off this week, smack dab in the middle of their final road swing through western Canada this season.
Instead of staying in Calgary after Monday’s game, or heading to Edmonton early for Friday’s game, the Wings will spend a few days in the picturesque city of Kelowna, British Columbia.
And the welcome mat will certainly be extend to the Wings, especially coach Mike Babcock, who returns to Canada this week for the first time since he coached Team Canada to an Olympic gold medal last month.
“Everybody is excited to see Mike as a gold medal winner, and the Red Wings,” said Bruce Hamilton, the president and general manager of the Western Hockey League’s Kelowna Rockets.

You read it right, but it wasn’t reported right.
According to wikipedia, Prospera Place seats 6800, not 60,000.
Hell, even selling out 6800 for a practice would be impressive…

If you mean an avatar with Babcock in it, then it worked.

No problem Greg, the photo will show up on your profile when people click your name. Your avatar will also show up too, but only your avatar will be seen when you leave a comment.
