Training Camp Jersey Number Stuff – DetroitHockey.Net
Clark is a jersey number hawk (among other things) and takes note of interesting changes for the Wings in terms of who is taking which numbers. If you’re looking for the new Dan Cleary, you can’t go wrong with Ben Street taking #11, to be sure.

Calgary Arena Deal Is Dead – Matchsticks and Gasoline
I’m just sitting here in my new gigantic glass house paid for in large part by public funding and casting stones Calgary’s way in terms of the kind of hardball the Flames’ owners (and Gary Bettman) are trying to play with the love of a hockey-mad city like Calgary. With Seattle committing to a brand new arena, it’ll make a good jealousy date for a while for owners looking to play their own cities for money (much like the Penguins did to Kansas City when they threatened relocation). We’ll see how it plays out.
