Aucoin to Test Market
From Alan Hahn in today’s Newsday:
Aucoin, who owns a home in Garden City, says he wants to keep his family on Long Island but can’t deny himself the chance to determine his value on the open market. The Montreal Canadiens are believed to have strong interest, along with Philadelphia and Atlanta.
Hahn also touches on the cable contract:
The NHL is close to finalizing an agreement with a U.S.-based cable network, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The league recently re-opened talks with ESPN, which cut the NHL loose last spring in favor of poker and eating contests. Comcast also is planning a bid.
That reminds me I haven’t picked up that IFOCE shirt I’ve been craving.
