apparently im not the only one who thinks katz + the oil = win
In an interview with the Team 1260 in Edmonton, former Oiler great and Phoenix Coyotes head coach, Wayne Gretzky gave his endorsement to Darryl Katz and his latest proposal to purchase the Oilers.
"There is no question in my mind that if he got the opportunity to take over, he would do a great job," Gretzky told the radio station.
"Daryl Katz is a wonderful Edmontonian. He really cares about the city [and] he would be a tremendous owner."
While Gretzky commended the efforts of the EIG for keeping the Oilers in Edmonton, he also expressed great respect for Nichols.
"One of the nicest people you can ever walk into is Cal Nichols. If Cal Nichols is smart enough and good enough to give [Katz] his endorsement than that's good enough for me."

Agreed.
It would be like Peter Cocklington trading Gretz back in the golden days.
And, Sens vs Red Wings! Tonight! :O :O

At race events we collect hats for kids with cancer going thru Chemo.
That may be a strong possibility.
Another theory may be that they are all woven together to make fishing nets.

I'm seriously wanting to know, dammit! My assumption is that they are donated, but I'm really curious.

i was there.. he did too!
yeah they (the hats) are donated, thats also why a lot of teams (usually minor league teams) have 1 or more "teddy bear toss" games as well which is cool

is that nash's goal?
if so.. i forgot to look that up

thanks steve!
and if my memory serves me correctly toews was just as nuts (and possibly better) but damn did nash dangle on that one
i think when it all comes down to it tho, toews is a finesse/all-round player while nash is a power forward so in that sense, nash gets the win

The only thing i didn't like about it is that he almost got beat by the poke check. Probably a little lucky that he was able to kick it back to his stick (which was sweet), but like a said, a little lucky. Either way, sweet goal.
