Can Lightning Plug The Hole in the Sinking Playoff
Ship?
By Ted Fleming, Tampa Bay Sports Net
TAMPA - Now it's the "Big 3" on the same line.
For
a team that was supposed to be a threat to the Southeast Division title
in the National Hockey League, the Lightning have sure made everyone
else look good. That's what happens when you are looking up instead of
down.
It's
a good thing to look down on people in this case because the higher up
you are the better chance you have to run the table. Sadly, Tampa Bay is
losing interest in a team that is not far removed from hoisting the Holy
Grail of sports, the Stanley Cup...

Weekly: The NHL: Not Dead, Just Forgotten
It’s
a quarter of the way into the NHL season. Do you know where your local
hockey team stands? No? Well don’t feel so bad, apparently you’re not

replaced it in the big 4. The NHL, like so many other companies who

office, I finally have a chance to write. As Master Po from Kung Fu said right
before the Emperor’s nephew shot him, humble apologies...

Lightning Welcome New Owners to
Tampa Bay
Last Wednesday the
NHL owners unanimously voted the sale of the Tampa Bay Lightning from Palace
Sports and Entertainment to OK Hockey, led by Hollywood producer Oren Koules and
former NHL player Len Barrie.
Days later, Oren Koules took to the podium
in his first official task as the new owner at the 2008 NHL Entry Draft to
announce the Lightning’s selection, which also happened to be the number one
overall pick.
Those two days were monumental for Koules
and Barrie, with the actual realization that they were indeed the owners of the
Tampa Bay Lightning at long last.... more
