Traverse City Broadcast
Wed, 08/04/2010 - 13:49 — abramsdougAccording to the NHL.com, the Traverse City Tournament will be broadcast if, and only if, enough fan support emerges requesting the broadcast. It would be great if interested people would email nhl.com or tweet at @nhletusa to request the Traverse City tournament be broadcast. Any help in that regard is appreciated. The Hurricanes have some very talented young players; and the Traverse City Tournament is a great opportunity for Caniacs to see the young players at work.
