I have to admit, I saw the sense in putting a team in Tampa because most of Greater Metro Tampa's populace comes from Detroit, Philly, New York, Minnesota, Ottawa, Toronto, etc. I thought they would adopt the Bolt's and then also go to the games when their respective hometown favorites came to town.
I actually have no idea what attendence figures are, but I know Stevei Y has done a great job his first year as GM. I did not think they'd get to the Finals, even though they have some ring wearing veterans, as a team they still need to mature a bit.
Vancouver vs Boston is going to be good. I'm saying Vancouver in 7, even though my family is one of the founding families of Boston. I'm picking Burroughs to score the Game 7 Vinner. Too bad Sammy's out; he's a little unpredictable during the reg season but seems to always come out of nowhere with some key goals in the playoffs.
With Detroit Dman Brian Raflski announcing his early retirement, Detroit fans want to use $4.5m of his $6m cap hit to sign UFA 's Bieksa or Erhoff. Realistically, Gillis can only keep two out of his three UFA Dmen, and I can't see him letting Salo walk, or Bieksa...
Sorry, you guys want to concentrate on the Cup Finals, not whats going to happen July 1, and I don't blame yas.
