Is No News Newsworthy?
By Thomas G Barker

Greetings Fellow Bloggies/Blogettes! I would like to begin this blog by stating the Sun and I are back on talking terms. After a few days of total silence, I decided to step up and be the bigger person and apologize for the comments I made the other day regarding the Sun taking a bit of a holiday. It turned out that the Moon needed a helping hand fixing its orbital motor, so the Sun asked Ms. Precipitation to take care of things while the Sun was away, thus, the rainy weather this past week! Now the Sun is back and shining ever so brightly this morning! It looks to be a great week ahead!

As for the NHL, things seem to be at a standstill. The only major story topping NHL news is the Ilya Kovalchuck saga. For those unaware of the Kovalchuck story, he was offered a 17 year, $102 million dollar contract with the New Jersey Devils. There seems to be some concern on the part of the National Hockey League, so the deal was rejected. Now Kovalchuck is awaiting the NHLPA's decision on whether or not it will file a grievance. Apart from that nothing else to report!

Hockey Heritage North is holding steady with no major news report. I would like to take this time to mention that HHN will be undergoing some renovations in the Month of September. This will be affecting availability and Rentals for the Month of September. As it stands, the Information Centre and HHN Store will remain open, but this is subject to change. I will be sure to keep you posted as September approaches.

Until the next Blog,

Cheer Loud, Cheer Long, Cheer Often!
