5 day break between the first and second games?

That is strange, particularly with the Olympic break putting a crunch on things.
More fun than a stick to the face!

Ahem
The Eastern Conference teams coming to town are as follows:
Don’t forget the Devils on Thu Nov 19, 2009. As a Devils fan who relocated to western Kentucky during the lockout, I know I won’t. I had to wait 3 years (exactly to the day, January 19th 2006 & 2009) for the Devils to make thier way to Nashville. This time I don’t even have to wait a full year!
Correction made...
Thanks for pointing that out!
