NORAD HQ in Colorado Springs is bringing in tracking gear to try to measure on-ice speed peaks during the Oilers - Avs game.

The equipment may not be up to the task. Thus far, it's only been tested on missiles.

As usual, my Flames are out and I am out. Also, my picks suck. GL all

I dislike all the teams in the west, so am watching the Lightening-Rangers like it is the Cup final :)
