  1. Does not look good at all. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...0032302421.html No direct ties to players yet, but this looks pretty ugly.
  2. I don't think this has been linked to yet, but it's interesting to see even former Flyers captain Primeau call out Richard's head shot on Booth and say it has no place in the NHL. The link is to a Hockey News article that quotes both Primeau and Foote calling for action to stop head shots. The Hockey News article links to another article that quotes Primeau at length. He knows something about concussions. http://thehockeynews.com/articles/29024-TH...head-shots.html I feel some momentum toward protecting players, but I don't see anything big happening until the owners change they way they think. They have to consider their players as investments that they should protect and maximize the value of. As a fan of the league, I can tell you what the league's most valuable asset is. It's the players, especially the skill players. I sure want the league and owners to protect them, because I want to see them play and not be reading about early retirements and years of suffering post-concussion syndrome and never really feeling right again.
  3. Are the new 9950 gloves available through any of the major distributors yet? I think I've seen them on 1 site, but they appear to be last year's gloves. 2 follow up questions: are the 2008 gloves available in plain nylon, or only the glossy robocop style? Are the gloves available in 15.5"? The catalog appears to only go up to 14.5" but I've seen 15.5" online (I assume they're last year's gloves). They look like good gloves and I'd like to try them out. I hope there is good manufacturing and distribution this season following the buy out.
