The summer is in full swing but we are still hooked on hockey.  With the draft behind us we are looking forward to training camp and covering the biggest and best stories in the NHL.  We want you to join our team as a blogger to cover the big NHL stories and stars in preparation for the 2012-2013 campaign. There is a ton to cover so get to your keyboard and email us @ [email protected].

Roberto Luongo has got to be the number one question mark this off season.

Everyone has tried to predict where the former Canucks #1 would land (pre-draft) to no avail. The Canucks workhorse is still on the market and no one knows if there will any takers soon.  If you are a Canucks fanatic and want to cover this story for Getrealhockey.com; please email us @ [email protected].

Tim Thomas is popping on and off the radar during the summer break.  His political views have been a cloud over the Bruins and it is going to be interesting to see how the management in Boston deals with the situation. The Boys from Bean Town are still super strong and the Tim Thomas adjustment will be a key to their chances in the coming season.  If you want to cover the Bruins for Getrealhockey.com; please email us @ [email protected].

Rick Nash is still a major story in the pre-season NHL banter.   The Blue Jackets are trying to swing the deal of the century to move Nash but the price seems high and takers have been slow in pushing to close a deal. Nash is a proven goal scorer and we think one of the big teams will bend and break and make the deal.  Anyway you cut it; the Rick Nash story will keep people talking.
