Vol III, No. 21
The draft is done. We got Stephane Matteau. That name rings a bell, doesn't it? Scouts say he skates better than his father. It will be great to see him on the ice when the Blueshirts come to town. But that is probably a couple years down the road.
Speaking of what's right up ahead, the new season schedule is out. It's available on the Devils and NHL websites. The season home opener is Saturday October 13 against Boston.
One event is not on the list. Keep June 28-29 open on next year's calendar. Why? Because the 2013 draft will be held at The Rock that weekend. Odds are, next year is when the Devs will forfeit a first round pick, to pay off the Kovalchuk contract penalty.
But the Rock will be rockin', with the entire hockey world on hand. It will be our chance to show 'em that the Devils Army cares for our hometown boys. Especially if the NHL owns the franchise by that time (which could happen).
Hockey Rules!
