Many of you knew what I would be blogging about this week and you guessed it, the sale of the Tampa Bay Lightning. I'll keep things brief because only time will tell the real story of the 200-million dollar sale from Palace Sports to a group called Absolute Hockey. Former stinking Panthers coach Doug MacLean led his group to the podium to state the obvious. NO the bolts will not be moved. Vinny, Brad, Marty and Dan will not be dealt. Jay Feaster is sill the g.m. and Torts is head coach. What would you expect them to say. The team is moving to Kansas City. The big salary players will be shipped out of town and a highly successful management team is out on their collective ears. No, these guys know thay have to be cool and let their real intentions come along at a later time. I really only have one thing to say. Can MacLean trade goalie Marc Denis back to Columbus for Feddie Modin. That would be a great way to start  the new regime.

I'M THE HOCKEY NUT AT FOX 13. ANYONE WHO KNOWS ME, KNOWS HOW MUCH I LOVE THE SPORT. I'VE PLAYED IT, COACHED IT AND NOW I EVEN REF IT. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU RE FROM TORONTO CANADA. MY FAMILY MOVED FROM CANADA TO CALIFORNIA WAY BACK IN 1964. THE GOLDEN STATE IS WHERE MY BROADCASTING CAREER BEGAN AT STATIONS IN SAN JOSE AND SACRAMENTO BUT IN 1994 I MADE THE BEST MOVE OF MY CAREER BY MOVING TO FOX 13 IN TAMPA. NOW 13 YEARS LATER I'M STILL ENJOYING BOTH THE STATION AND THE AREA. I'VE TRADED THE GOLDEN STATE FOR THE SUNSHINE STATE, AND WHAT A TRADE ITS BEEN. BY THE WAY, GO LIGHTNING!
