      now
      behind
     
     
      the
      Panthers
      bench,
      just
      five
     
     
      years
      after
      ending
      his
      term
      as
      a
     
     
      player
      with
      the

      from
      East
      Wiltshire

      position
      a
      year
      ago,
      when
      he
      lost
      out
      to
     
     
      Mike
      Kelly,
      who
      coached
      the
      team
      last
     
     
      year.
      Kelly
      recently
      departed
      the

      in

      position
      available
      with

      Manitoba
      Moose.
     
    

    
     
      Kelly’s
      brief
      stint
      with
      UPEI
     
     
      saw
      him
      lead
      the
      team

      round

      Taylor
      assumes
      control
      of
      a
     
     
      team
      that
      has

      number
      of

      players
      returning,

      that
      is
      missing
      a
     
     
      large
      piece
      of
      its
      success
      last
      year
      -
     
     
      award
      winning
      forward
      Joel
      Ward,

      Ward
      is

      the
      NHL.
     
    

    
     
      Taylor,
      however,
      is
      no
      stranger
     
     
      to
      the
      game,
      and
      should
      be
      up
      to
      the
     
     
      challenge
      of
      both
      recruiting
      quality
      new
     
     
      players

      the
      veterans

      Kelly
      left
      off.
     
    

    
     
      Taylor
      joined

      as
      a
      forward
      in
      1998
      from
      the
      Kingston
     
     
      Frontenacs
      of
      the
      OHL.
      He
      spent
      four
     
     
      years
      with
      the
      Panthers,
      during
      two
      of
     
     
      which
      he
      captained
      the
      team,
      and
      then
     
     
      proceed

      In
      a
      move
      that
      everyone
      saw
     
     
      coming,
      Wayne
      Gretzky
      agreed
      to
     
     
      coach
      a
      struggling
      Phoenix
      team,
      which
     
     
      I
      honestly
      don’t
      even
      want
      to
      try
      to
     
     
      make
      a
      prediction
      on.
      Gretzky
      and
      Hull
     
     
      didn’t
      get
      along
      in
      St
      Louis,
      and
      with
     
     
      Brett
      as
      cantankerous
      as
      ever,
      I
      don’t
     
     
      foresee
      a
      good
      relationship.
      Then
      again,
     
     
      everything
      Wayne
      Gretzky
      touches
     
     
      seems
      to
      turn
      to
      gold.
      It
      certainly
      will
     
     
      be
      entertaining
      to
      watch
      the
      drama
     
     
      unfold
      in
      the
      desert.
     
    

    
     
      With
      everyone
      eager
      for
      the
     
     
      first
      puck
      to
      drop,
      one
      question
      is
     
     
      hanging
      over
      everyone’s
      head
      -
      what
     
     
      happened
      to
      Gary
      Bettman
      and
      Bob
     
     
      Goodenow?
      It
      is
      my
      belief
      that
      Gary
     
     
      Bettman
      is
      professional
      enough
      to
      carry
     
     
      on
      with
      his
      duties
      like
      nothing
     
     
      happened.
      This
      guy
      is
      Ironman.
     
     
      Goodenow,
      on
      the
      other
      hand,
     
     
      probably
      spends
      his
      spare
      time
      crying
     
     
      himself
      to
      sleep
      in
      between
      bouts
      of
     
     
      wetting
      the
      bed.
      Don’t
      expect
      him
      to
     
     
      be
      around
      much
      longer.

      Hockey
      was
      not
      the
      only
      sport
     
     
      commanding
      the
      attention
      of
      Canadian
     
     
      sports
      fans
      this
      summer.
      The

      now
      in
      full
      swing,
      has
     
     
      also
      provided
      excitement.
      After
      staging
     
     
      the
      wildly
      successful
      Touchdown

      was
      lucky
     
     
      enough
      to
      attend,
      there
      has
      been
     
     
      rampant
      speculation
      of
      the
      CFL
      adding
     
     
      a
      tenth
      team
      in
      the
      Maritimes.
     
     
      Commissioner
      Tom
      Wright
      has
      stated
     
     
      many
      times
      his
      desire
      to
      do
      so,

      Halifax

      Moncton
      have
      been

      the
      front-runners
      for
      an
     
     
      expansion
      franchise.
      This
      has
      sparked
     
     
      widespread
      debate
      in
      the
      Maritimes
      as
     
     
      to
      who
      would
      be
      better
      suited
      to
      host
      a
     
     
      team.
      London
      and
      Quebec
      City
      have
     
     
      also
      been
      rumoured
      as
      possibilities,

      who

      Halifax
      put
      forth
      a
      great
      case
     
     
      for
      a
      team
      in
      hosting
      Touchdown

      9000

      a
      16-16
      tie.
      The
     
     
      atmosphere
      was
      incredible
      and
      both

      main
      factor
      in

      the
      fact
      that
      its
     
     
      population
      is
      considerably
      higher
      than
     
     
      Moncton’s.
