NHL

Written on September 14th, 2004 by Judd

Olli Jokinen says that he has not had serious talks with the Panthers since Mike Keenan took over as coach. Duh! Jokinen is exactly the type of player who might be affected by a new labor agreement. Why would the Panthers who are one of the teams struggling financially want to make a big offer at this point?

As for the NHL, it would be silly for them to bypass a chance to showcase their players in the Turin Olympics (2006) even if this season is cancelled. Was there a better showing for these guys than in the last winter olympics?

I really hope hockey gets their act together and does it soon. It would be borderline suicidal not to.
