Luc Robitaille was quoted as saying this is only the beginning. Junior Hockey in LA and San Jose have a lot of talented kids and there will be more in the future.

Fluke of nature. People are born in the wrong places all the time. I was born in the United States, but anyone who knows me well knows I should have been born and raised in Europe.

The preseason is almost here! I'm ready!

Sharks didn't make the defensive trades people thought they would, so that's the only worry. Boyle is my vote for captain. We've a plethora of keepers in Nabby's absence. No big changes on offense of course.

I'm less confident than last year, but almost anyone would consider them contenders for the cup.
