Dave,

Too bad the NHL didn't act in a forward-thinking manner and require all new buildings to build 200' x 100' – then provide a certain date for compliance. When Calgary built the Saddledome for the 1988 Olympics, it had stands that move so it could be expanded to 100' across (international size.) This one change would help accommodate the size, speed and fitness levels of today's players much better than the current configuration – and perhaps reduce some of the injuries! I wonder if they will have to go to a 4 on 4 game to open it up – shrink the rosters (to the howls of protest of the NHLPA and purist fans)?

Re: Milbury – I believe it was in Vancouver when Mike climbed into the stands and beat a guy with his own shoe. I think this link is vs. the Rangers? Old-time hockey…
