If any of these teams fans raise more than $5,000, I will get their team logo tattooed on my chest.
I have been a Bruins fan since 1964 and I will be riding in The Ride to Conquer Cancer the weekend of June 12. It is a 200 kilometer ride from Toronto to Niagara Falls and I want to challenge all Leafs, Canadians and Flyers fans to help me raise money.

Get the Jets back in the league, or give Hamilton a shot not some team stationed in Europe that probably will fold after the first year because of a lack of team support.
Why is it that Gary Bettman wants to bring the NHL to Europe so badly? It doesn't make any sense. How is he going to work this one?
The time changes are one thing, but when you can get a team in any Canadian city and sell out each game, the answer seems pretty clear to me.

I just wanted to thank Joe Micheletti. I met him after the Victoria Cup between the New York Rangers and Metallurg Magnitogorsk. Even though he was about to leave the arena, he took the time so I could have a little chat with him and take a picture.

I just don’t see anything special about Carey Price.
Carey Price. Hmm. What to think of him?
Everyone has him pegged already to be the next great goalie. It's possible, however, didn't writers also say that of a goalie by the name of Jim Carey?
I just don’t see anything special about Carey Price.

It may not be as intense as the roar of "Edd-ie, "Edd-ie" heard upon Eddie Giacomin's return with Detroit or Brian Leetch's with Boston.
In regards to the "Let’s get it on" column (Sept. 30th) Ryan Kennedy wrote one of the games of note included Sean Avery's visit to New York against the Rangers in what promises to be a jeer-filled return with a rough reception.

The stars can't be stars, the goalie equipment is ridiculous and most of the goals have to come on power plays, deflected shots and screens.
The NHL doesn't get it.
(Most) fans want more scoring. The NHL shoots itself in the foot depriving fans of the most exciting moment in hockey.

Goalies should be allowed to wear the ‘C’ and I will go as far as to say even the ‘A.’
It’s time for the NHL to change with the times.
Ryan Kennedy was dead on in his online column. The Vancouver Canucks named Roberto Luongo team captain and that’s an excellent choice.

It seems the NHL is forgetting why it exists in the first place and shows the true fan they mean nothing.
In this day and age of the NHL constantly preaching cost certainty and stability until our ears bleed, how is it possible within 10 years Stockholm or Moscow have a better chance at an NHL franchise than Southern Ont.

We drove to New Jersey from our home outside Albany, N.Y. Seats on the glass, our heroes on the ice; the complete deal. And then there was magic.
Many issues ago you published a letter written about a great experience a father and his child had running into an NHL ref at a hotel. Although I imagine you get many similar letters, I thought I'd share mine.

He had three 100+ point seasons in the QMJHL, not to mention 51 points in 19 playoff games. This proves Giroux is a better player than Stamkos, statistically.
I have to disagree with The Hockey News for the first time in a while.
Reading up on Steven Stamkos being the clear cut Calder choice is pretty laughable.

The fact teams have to overpay to reach a ceiling is horrible.
Ken Campbell was right with his piece he wrote about the Jarrett Stoll contract.
You can’t blame the player for taking the money; the owners brought this upon themselves.

Showing up to play for reasons other than the scouts does deserve a trophy.
While I found the latter half of Ken Campbell's facetious "Everyone Gets a Trophy Day" article mildly amusing, I couldn't help but feel a little sick reading his pretentious preamble ranting about the merits of only giving trophies to "winners" in minor hockey, which reeked of high school jock mentality.

Which team will win the Northeast Division?
"Nobody cares about Jarome Iginla and guys like that. They're just not exciting enough. They don't bring enough to the game."
- Sean Avery, Dallas Stars.
