Hockey Fest coming up
For those planning to attend the Kings' Hockey Fest this coming weekend, it really looks to be shaping up to be a nice event. In particular, I'm looking forward to the ``kick-off party'' on Friday night, and I hope to get a chance to meet some of you. Saturday's highlight figures to be the reunion of the Triple Crown Line, and I'm also looking forward to the ``experts panel'' hosted by Jim Fox and John Buccigross. Sunday is my birthday, so I don't know how much I'll be around, but Bob Miller's ``one-man show'' should be worth the price of admission alone. If Bob takes requests, ask him about the interview he did that upset Jack Kent Cooke. Anyway, for more information, you can check out lakings.com/hockeyfest.

I would love the opportunity to say hello and thank you personally for what a great job you do for us, Rich. Make sure to let your readers know where you're gonna be hanging out.
Who else is coming? Maybe we should figure out a meet-up spot?
WOW
it's THIS weekend all ready?
sheesh!
yeah I'll be there too ... probably friday night only at this point
I really wish I could be there, but I have to help my father in-law move all weekend. I would love to hear about the highlights if some of you wouldn't mind posting. Happy Birthday Rich! I hope you get a chance to relax and enjoy yourself.
I will be there all 3 days. I will be wearing my Blake jersey so no booing me!
I am hoping to get a new jersey while I am there. Any suggestions? My friend bought me the Blake jersey 2 months before he was traded the first time. So I am cursed.

Dave,
If you're really cursed then don't buy a new jersey at all. Though, it sounds to me like your friend is cursed, so just don't let them help you pick and certainly don't let them buy it for you again.
Is Buccigross only doing one hour, as listed on the schedule? Not that he's the star attraction, but it doesn't seem like he's "hosting" much.
Happy B-day Rich! Make it a good one...
Go Kings!
