Keep Hope Alive

Today is election day in the United States and it also is the day that the NHLPA and the NHL are getting back to the table to hammer out a new Collective Bargaining Agreement.  If they are are able to come to terms soon, I wonder how much DIRECTV will reduce the NHL Center Ice package to.  My best guess is that it'll be around $125.00 if the season starts around December 1.

When the NHL does return, expect the Minnesota Wild to get off to a fast start, thanks in large part to new acquisitions Zach Parise and Ryan Suter.  Parise and Suter will bring instant credability to a franchise that has languished for several years in a row.  Add in soon to be Calder Winner Mikael Granlund and you've got a playoff contender.  My official predictions are not ready yet, but I expect the Wild to finish around 3rd in the Western Conference.

Out East, I have no clue yet.  My crack team of researchers is about halfway through breaking down the rosters and schedule, but it's not complete yet.  All I know is that the Maple Leafs won't win the Cup...why break tradition, right?
