Countdown to a FRENZY

Yes, just mere moments until the bonehead Gary Bettman (who I applaud for his hardline stance) gets up and announces the lockout is OVER. 30-0, the owners approved. Now, I can start my Penguins Blog, a la D Rock and his Sox blog, and enjoy the NHL offseason, which is crammed into 2 months.

My fingers are crossed, and I hope, I PRAY, that the Penguins get the #1 pick. I can see NYR, BOS and LA getting top picks, and PIT being in the top 7, but who knows.

Rule changes, the draft lottery, and a new logo (woo haa) will be announed in just a matter of time... and then, the puck will drop in about 80 days or so...

Here's to Canada!
