Short Shift

by Ryan

Sorry for another quick post, we've been doing that a lot this week. I'm working on something a bit bigger for late tonight, but for now if you haven't checked out this feature on the World Juniors coming to Buffalo, do so. Jon and I have debated on how well tickets will sell and such, but we both agree that this will be a truly great event for the city.

We still have a lot of questions about how everything will go down, and over the next few years we plan on finding the right people to ask those questions to. Stay tuned.

Info and Gameday and Such

It's really happening.

I'm heading downtown for the game tonight and very, very excited. Who wants to get tickets with us?

2010-11 World Juniors coming to Buffalo

Gotta love it. Move over Detroit, now we're really making an official push for the title of Hockeytown.

USA Hockey was still putting the finishing touches on the final details today, but it appears the best amateur hockey tournament in the world will be coming to Buffalo in two years.

The top governing body for hockey in the United States has scheduled a news conference for Monday afternoon in HSBC Arena. It's widely believed USA Hockey will announce that the 2010-11 World Junior Hockey Championships will be held in Buffalo. The tournament runs in late December and early January.

UPDATE: Just got an email from James Mirtle, he thinks it is a go as well. This is beyond huge.
