From the Branches: NWHL uniform shop opens!

Signing up for the Friday FTB before my Labor Day weekend road-trip will be a no brainer, I thought to myself. It's a quiet Friday in September, and the entire US will be thinking more about grilling hot dogs and a rare Monday off than hockey.

What could possibly happen?

Yeah, anyway.

Kings' Slava Voynov goes from jail to immigration custody in domestic violence case | LA Times
"After Voynov's release in Seal Beach, ICE took him into custody and is holding the Russian citizen at an unspecified detention facility pending a hearing by an immigration judge, an agency spokeswoman said Thursday. Because of the violent nature of Voynov's legal entanglement — which brought him to the attention of ICE in the first place — the agency didn't set a bond."

Kane update
Jonathan Toews was asked about Patrick Kane. There is a Puck Daddy article up at present, but I don't like the picture that Puck Daddy used. Here, instead, is a link to Chris Kuc's original transcription of Toews' words, which is perhaps the most undiluted way to read about it. There is also a story up at Second City Hockey.
