PRE-GAME RANT

Well, so far we’ve got the Habs number this season, although we’ve only played them once…  It was way back on October 10th, when the Oil were healthy and the fans were excited.  A 3-2 win for the home team.  My oh my how the times have changed.  We’re heading into Montreal to play against a team that appears to be coming together at the right time for a playoff push.  Winners of 4 of their last 5, they’re probably looking forward to this match up more than we are.  This is Montreal’s last game against a Western opponent, so their playoff chances look good.  In the pipes Deslauriers has looked a lot more comfortable lately, but some of my dodgy sources are reporting Dubnyk will get the start tonight.  For the Oil, Minard has been called up and will likely see some action as Moreau is questionable, and O’Sullivan is hanging out at home.

MOYES AGREES TO SELL COYOTES TO NHL

Per TSN.

Phoenix Coyotes owner Jerry Moyes has agreed to sell the bankrupt franchise to the NHL.

The agreement, which still must be approved by Judge Redfield T. Baum, was announced in U.S. Bankruptcy Court on Monday after lawyers met for more than an hour during a recess in a status hearing on the case.
…
NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly says that once the deal closes, the league will immediately look to sell the team, preferably to an owner who will keep the club in Arizona.
