I got a call from the 99FM news room this morning. They wanted me to confirm that NHL players were coming to Thunder Bay on Monday the 12th to play an exhibition game. Sorry our leagues share the initials but that's where it ends. They couldn't even find us on the net, they called a former Thunder Bay Minor executive. Investigative reporting skills apparently are not a requirement in the news room.
I should have told him yes, NHL players will be at the Gardens on Saturday. Players from the Leafs, Flyers, Senators, Canadiens, Sharks and Kings have confirmed they will be there for three hours and admission is free.
If the big boys do come, I hope people stay home to show them how they feel about the whole mess.
