NHL Approves Sale of Blues

June 22, 2006

The NHL approved the sale of the St Louis Blues to David Checketts earlier this week.  Normally I wouldn’t bother writing about the sale of a team, but what makes this interesting is that Checketts used to work at MSG and their us a rumor going around that he will hire Rangers color man John Davidson to be the team president.  I’m hoping the rumor is unfounded because I can’t imagine a Rangers game without JD.  If he DOES leave, I won’t hold a grudge.  I imagine that after years of watching games he must be itching to have more control over a franchise.  It would be interesting to see who his replacement would be.  My hope is that they go with another former Blueshirt goalie and convince Mike Richter to drop out of college.
