Portage & Main

TSN: Hockey Insider Darren Dreger talks Phoenix Coyotes. Interesting thoughts from Dreger. He both raises up and dashes hopes of Peggers. Suggests that the COG is working on a "creative financing" package for Hulsizer but then also gives a "firm" timeline of next Friday (May 6th). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v62c8Q8_4QN4 Arizona Republic: Colangelo not involved with Coyotes. If Deputy Daly thinks GWI is irrelevant to the process, why did the COG and prospective owner Matthew Hulsizer meet with them for 3 hours last Thursday at the Cupcake Summit? Winnipeg Sun: Cool your Jets, Winnipeg. As with most rumors, a little twitter birdy says one thing (speaking of twitter, why not follow @Illegalcurve), gets picked up by another few and next thing you know it has snowballed into the Jets are back and there is going to be a big party at Portage & Main. While I agree that it's important to keep calm and not jump to any conclusions, it is clear the excitement in this city has reached a fever pitch as there are now over 12,132 fans on a Facebook group ready to celebrate this event.
