Another Slow Day In Sunrise

Good Afternoon folks. I hope everyone out there is managing to survive Monday as best as possible.

Today is another slow day in Sunrise. The Panthers have sat quietly the past couple of weeks, waiting for an answer from the Tanguay camp, or not. If you ask Randy Sexton he will tell you the latter of the two.

The Panthers kicked off the countdown caravan this past Saturday. Yours truly attended and it was a pretty cool setup. I do have one request though, lets get a DJ who knows a little bit about the Panthers and hockey. The caravan will continue its tour on the 8th when it stops in at Palm Beach Ice in West Palm Beach. If you have the time, check it out. You can check out the rest of the caravans schedule here.

The Florida Panthers official website sat down with coach DeBoer the other day and asked him a few questions about the upcoming season. You can read the Q&A session here.

In a little news around the league, a deal for Dany Heatley may actually get done, but it will not involve the Edmonton Oilers. A few days ago the Oilers held a press conference to announce that the club is no longer interested in Heatley's services. Days after this announcement an article came out on TSN claiming the San Jose Sharks could get a deal done for Heatley, but it would have to involve a third team. That third team is being reported to be the Montreal Canadiens.

I find this interesting. It has been a while since a blockbuster deal involved three teams, and I am curious to see how this one works out, if Heatley allows it of course. Once more information is reported I will do the same here.

That will do it for now, please E-mail any questions or comments about this entry or previous entries to FloridaFlyer86@hotmail.com
