Who will win the hockey lottery?
Not that I really care too much, but the fever to own a personal hockey franchise is growing among the idle rich. Right now, one of the teams that was sent to wander in the desert wants relief from its creditors, and by extension, a new mailing address. Just down the highway, the Montreal franchise is in no danger of needing a moving van, but new owners are one announcement away. Locally, even the regional television station has been showing (over and over again) a documentary about the rise and fall of the Nordiques: there is a fringe segment of the population that would love to have another team to criticize as long as they were local.
