Also thought this was worthy of note. O and if you're wondering why the Brahmas won't be in the Mudbugs' division this year...well, the Brahmas franchise formally requested to the CHL that they be moved to the South. Didn't want to take the revenge the Bugs will be looking for this upcoming season? Hm. Don't really blame them though, the South is by far the easiest conference in all of minor league hockey (IMO).

Nashville re-signs Suter. Nashville Tennessean

Penguins going to make a push for Hossa. Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

This is from Andy Strickland's blog...and had to say something about it. I'm sorry but that's just wrong in my eyes. If you're going to fire a guy, at least have the balls to tell him to his face. How pathetic do you have to be to text message him that he's fired. Absolutely pathetic IMO.

The Nashville Predators need to find $9.8 million to protect the city of Nashville in case the team breaks its lease on the Sommet Center.
