    NBA, lol. Actually with all the excitement of the Clones winning the Kelly Cup, it may actually get me interested in the NHL. Thats the problem for me, live hockey is a good time, but on TV, it just loses its flavor.

    What is sad about the downfall of the NHL is that HDTV makes the sport infinitely more watchable. In fact, no sport benefits more in HD than hockey.

    Columbus 23. Columbus Blue Jackets – Clearly the franchise is weeding out the non-Ken Hitchcock players, and this summer that has meant good-bye to Gilbert Brule, Nikolai Zherdev, Michael Peca, Dick Tarnstrom, David Vyborny, Duvie Westcott and Dan Fritsche. The signings of Mike Commodore, R.J. Umberger, Kristian Huselius and acquisitions of Raffi Torres, Fedor Tyutin and Christian Backman signal the team has a clear plan of putting established veteran role players around a solid core. Under GM Scott Howson and Hitchcock, this team is starting to take shape.

    If signing top level free agents ensured success in the NHL, I'm pretty sure the Rangers would have just won their 10th consecutive Stanley Cup. But their enlies NHL's greatness...truly the only sport where each team really does have a chance to win the Stanley Cup at the beginning of the season.

    They actually resigned Michael Peca, who is, without a doubt, a Hitchcock type player.

    I hate seeing Vyborny go...although he really hasn't been a force, he's been around forever and I'm sure even casual fans are going to be sad to see him go.
