Does anyone know if this will be broadcast live online anywhere? Seems as though CSN is only showing segments later in the afternoon.

I can't wait to see this. I hope Zell is there and Ricketts puts a boot up his ass.

"Our shareholders are our fans...and we're going to work for them."

Well, he's sticking with Hendry.

Only a slight increase in payroll next season, but increased focus on player development long-term. No surprises.
