Coincidence?
Damien Cox, a great hockey writer out of Toronto, said in an article on espn.com that the NHL has been almost "self-destructive" over the past 15 years due to careless expansion into non-hockey markets, a deadly-boring style of play that became prevalent around 1996, and two lockouts (this wasn't in the article but countless rule changes and owners who care only about profit haven't helped much). Current comish Gary Bettman, who was a NBA man, came into office in 1992. That's 16 years ago, one year before the downfall began. Coincidence? You be the judge.

I worked at hershey park yesterday in the games, and guess what game I had?
The hockey one.. it's called "hat trick".
So while being there, there were tons of people who couldn't get the puck in that slot..
A forty-something year old guy cpouldn't get it after about 12-20 tries; meanwhile, a little girl (probably 10 at the most) got it in the large prize slot and the small prize shot and only missed once. crazyy.. but I thought of you, so I thought I'd share. :)
ps. not coincidental.
