It's usually today or tomorrow that we're out there but we won't wait any later than (Nov. 9) to go somewhere to find snow. I'm really hoping the temperature will drop," said [Megan Imrie], 22, in a telephone interview.
"We will start trying to qualify now but we won't know the team until quite close to the Olympics but I'll know after this winter if I have completed any of the qualifications already," she said. "If I have great results this year, then I can be pretty sure that I'll be going. As I like to say, all I can do is make as many competitors as possible eat my snow.
"The profile of biathlon is rising a bit, leading up to the Olympics. I have a feeling that this is really our one big shot to get known by having the Olympics in our own country," she said. "I don't think it will...

If the NHL found a way whereby fewer Europeans of the 1, 2 and 3 categories played in the NHL and fewer still in the minors, then these players could remain as important contributors to their club teams in Europe thus increasing the quality of play in Europe and development the talents of more players with NHL potential," the study said. "Hence, using fewer Europeans could be profitable for the NHL.
"In my experience, the players who went on to have the most success in the NHL were players who chose not to leave at the first opportunity," [Don Baizley] is quoted in the study. "[Saku Koivu], Jere Lehtinen, Teemu Selanne and [Peter Forsberg] are all clients who declined to go to the NHL at their earliest opportunity."

SCOTLAND: It's been 12 years since any team except Rangers or Celtic has finished in the top two in Scotland, which is why it was headline news in that country when Hearts clinched second spot early this week. Now it's time for Cinderella to get a nose job and some, umm, enhancements. Second place means Hearts qualify for the Champions League next season and rich but interfering owner 'Mad Vlad' Romanov wants to revamp the team so it doesn't get embarrassed by Europe's elite. Midfield star Rudi Skacel is willing to help out. The Czech wants to cash in on his fantastic season by landing a fat contract with a big English team.

This camp is what I had been expecting," said [Ashley Voth]. "Yesterday we had two 1 1/2 hours of skills, as well as learning some new techniques in passing." With the Team Canada selection camp opening Monday, Voth said, "I am working as hard as I can to improve my skills, so I want to play a lot and touch the ball as much as I can.
"It's a great chance to get our foot in the door in Europe," said [Rob Smith]. "My wife Lindsay (Poggemiller) and I are excited about experiencing something new together."
"I was pleased with my steady progress throughout the session and was able to bring the car up to speed," said [S Dave Richert]. "Unfortunately my data acquisition encountered an error so I was unable to review any of the information, and that was a disappointment."

It's been an exciting week," said the 18-year-old [Chet Pickard], fresh off a 3-2 loss to the Everett Silvertips. "At the start of the season I didn't think any of this would be happening to me. The ranking is exciting but there's lots of hockey to go. I guess it shows that the team is playing well and I'm getting a chance to benefit from that.
"I'd be surprised if he didn't go in the first round. It depends on the needs of teams but an NHL team can draft Chet knowing they're getting a No. 1 goalie down the line, not a backup goalie," said [Al Jensen]. "I've seen him a few times this season and he's very consistent. To be short, I was impressed. I haven't seen the goalies ranked in Europe but if there's a better goalie over there, he's a very good goalie. Chet is the best of the bunch...

It all happened in a whirlwind said Carter. "My coach Dave Hill asked me two Sundays ago if I would be interested in going to play in Italy,' she said, adding, "who wouldn't? Then I got an e-mail that night (from Italy) and on Monday morning I got confirmation that I would be on the team.
