Gulls games broadcasted locally in San Diego on Channel 4 San Diego, the home of the Padres, Gulls, Riptide, and SDSU Aztecs.
Check out the home of the San Diego Gulls at http://www.sandiegogulls.com/
I will probably be going to the home opener on Saturday October 23rd if anyone wants to buy me a beer.
GO GULLS!!!
I will be at the home opener because I cannot live without hockey. I spent all day yesterday playing NHL 2K5 on the Xbox. And, although I have forsaken the art of alcohol consumption, I will be more than happy to buy you a beer.

I dont watch Hockey at all (HATE ME NOW), but I found this semi-interesting article about a lot of the NHL's locked-out players signing contracts (most with "Let me go back to the NHL when the lock-out is over" clauses) with teams in Europe. Enjoy!

For the Euro clubs, the only way to bring the stars over is to let them leave when the NHL reopens, so why not? It's like the Astros giving Roger Clemens his 'road trips optional' clause, it's a necessity to bring in a big name. Bringing these guys in is a big deal, especially to a team like Davos. When was the last time Switzerland saw NHL all stars? Adding Thornton and Nash is huge for them, even if it is only temporary.

Remember, kids: with no NHL action to speak of, give both the players and owners the finger...and take your hockey dollars to somewhere where they're appreciated.
Go watch your local NCAA D-1 (Go Badgers!) or other college team (Go St. Norbert Green Knights!). Or check out a bunch of young kids trying for Big Ten scholarships by playing in the USHL. (Go Green Bay Gamblers!)
There's good hockey out there.
Star wipe, and...we're out.
Thrillin' ain't easy.

Flames fans were saying at the end of last year "Well, at least the Roughnecks won". The Roughnecks are our NLL Lacrosse team that actually won the freakin' championship last year. And now they, like the Flames, are not going to play this year.

This could be good or not so good. Pierre McGuire is one of the hosts, so there's one knock against it. Then again, Bob McKenzie is another, so that's a big plus for it. | BigVitoMark

TSN's proposal includes a very soft luxury tax system in place of a hard cap, which should be enough to dismiss their plan entirely since, if the owners were willing to take that, we wouldn't be having this discussion at all.

McKenzies conclusion was that since both sides hated it, it mush make sense...
