The biggest news out there is this, the new logo.
If they really wanted to call them the Jets, they would have done it a whole lot sooner. And had it ready for the draft.
Because it took so long, you know they looked at every other option first.
And I still say they should have gone with the Moose.

Kris Draper is retiring.... I am very bummed by this
ad: I guess he and Babcock didn't see eye to eye very often (which helped him decide), but Babcock is some sort of power tripping beast from what I've heard.

I heard a couple Draper interviews on the way in to work this morning.
He was great, he'd help any team win.
But I think money was an issue too.

Alex Kovalev appears to be heading back to Russia, as sports website Sports Express reports that the veteran winger is set to sign a two-year contract with Atlant Mytishchi of the Kontinental Hockey League.
The 38-year-old is a 17-year NHL veteran who played for the New York Rangers, Pittsburgh Penguins, Montreal Canadiens and Ottawa Senators.
Kovalev was a Seond Team All-Star with the Canadiens and was also a three-time All-Star Game selection. He had a career-best 95 points (44 goals, 51 assists) in 2000-01. Overall, he has 428 goals and 596 assists for 1,024 points in 1,302 career games.
He had 16 goals and 18 assists in 54 games with the Senators and Penguins this past season.
The Senators shipped Kovalev to the Penguins at the trade deadline for a conditional seventh-round pick.
Earlier in the season Kovalev went public with his general unhappiness in Ottawa and openly complained about his role under head coach Cory Clouston who demoted Kovalev to the fourth line for a period of time.
An Olympic gold medalist with Russia in 1992, Kovalev was alsom a member of the Stanley Cup-winning Rangers in 1994.

Reports are Zherdev is going to sign with Atlant Moscow Oblast.

Gretzky said Kovalev has the greatest skill of anyone he's ever seen.
He just never wanted to do anything with it.

I could agree with that. I would have liked to see him come back to the Pens and skate with Sid for a full season, I bet he would have put up 30/60 easy. He is lazy though, as many Euros and especially Russians, tend to be.

I just heard Tampa Bay is bringing in a pipe organ in their arena. :clap:
And they're adding tesla coils to create 25' bolts of lightning in the arena. :rock:

Next year, when Lidstrom retires, I wonder what the Wings will do with that cap room?
