The excitement of the start of NHL playoffs also cums with a bit of a shadow with the looming strike for next year. This isn't bad for everyone, just consider the drooling Russian/Swedish/Czech leagues that can't wait to get some of their homegrown stars back home. I've always thought the Swedish league is strongest of all non-North American leagues (both financially and talent wise) but some others have a different opinion.

I've noticed that there's a lack of MBA related material in my posts lately, is it disdain with my current workload or just lazyness?
