Abby is moving to Long Island when the Islanders move to Brooklyn?

Definitely Mike Bossy related. Google his name and this is the second image to come up:

Like coaching or management or captaincy changes?

NYI's finally being relegated to the AHL, and the Heat will take their place?

This is totally off topic, but the picture of Mike Bossy reminded me of a very old article (ie. pre-internet) in The Hockey News where the author tried to construct the perfect hockey player Frankenstein-style, using different body parts from active players. They ended up using Mike Bossy's nose with the description "Olfactory? Try Goal-Factory!". That phrase has stuck in my head all these years, and now I share it with you. Your welcome.

The Heat had Guy Lafleur at their home opener. It was billed as the first in their Legends of Hockey features. Looks like Bossy will be next

^ Ah, I was thinking it was referencing Linden.

Still probably the Legends Autograph series thing.

yeah but isn't it funny that the two jerseys pictured are
1. the islanders, very close to where the heat were rumoured to be moving
2. canucks the team that was rumoured to be moving into abby

not saying that's the announcement but just that the team is likely aware of the implied meaning and capitalizing on it for increased media attention.

was coming to say exactly this

while the legends thing seems the most plausible, the fact that it is the Islanders and the Nucks so far, certainly could also mean that they are moving to NY

Nothing team related. I can assure you.

They're going to be letting everyone know who the next few Legends of Hockey guests will be. Obviously, Mike Bossy and (probably) Trevor Linden since he's an hour drive away (and he'll probably show up when Utica's in town).

^I think I might have to make it out to Abbotsford for one of these and to see a Heat game. Always wanted to see and AHL game, this might be the year.
