Breaking Hockey News
 
Since the NHL as we know it may not exist next season, you can start making your alternate plans now.  The World Hockey Association revival held it's first free-agent draft (in the hopes that the NHL won't be signing any free agents) today... and the Detroit Gladiators selected Dany Heatley as their number one pick.
 
Not a bad choice.  Never mind that just two days ago, Heatley was indicted for vehicular homocide and a variety of other charges.
 
And while you're at it, you might also want to forget about the fact that the WHA probably won't be ready to start playing in October.  You better believe I'm still sending a resume... just in case.
