During the exhibition season here the NHL experimented with two refs as well as two linesmen. I leave it to your imagination to picture the havoc created with all of them on the ice as well as this year's crop of even bigger players..eg Zdeno Chara..6 ft 9 inches in his hockey socks...I mean, we were spoiled for choice as far as barracking was concerned..oh and the standard of reffing wasn't any better. Don't see why we should have to pay extra on our tickets for yet ANOTHER inept official and on our meagre incomes too...re Petr Nedved..apparently he can't play for Sparta any more because if he does Pittsburgh have to put him on waivers before he can rejoin the team. Last I heard he was still holding out for 18.5 million...by the way our snow has arrived.....
