Impasse declared over Penguins arena

The on-going negotiations between the Pittsburgh Penguins and government officials over the building of a new arena are not going as well as hoped.
The Penguins have declared an impasse and will aggressively explore moving the franchise to a new city. Kansas City is the favourite to land the Penguins as they have a brand new arena that is missing a tenant.
Penguins co-owners Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle told Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell, Allegheny County chief executive Dan Onorato and Pittsburgh mayor Luke Ravenstahl about their decision in a letter on Monday.
According to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, the Penguins had agreed to pay $4 million annually in rent and capital expenses to contribute to a new are[n]a, as well as an additional $500,000 for a parking garage, but the two sides have not been able to reach an agreement. The Penguins had originally offered to pay $2.86 million annually in the offer that was presented by state and local leaders at a meeting January 4.
"Unfortunately, we still don't have a deal and are faced with mounting uncertainty that an agreement can be reached in a time frame that is realistic for our organization," the letter states. "Therefore, we have no choice but to declare an impasse and to notify NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman that we will aggressively explore relocation.
"A project of this scope, with so many complex issues, can ill afford further delays that add more risk and more uncertainty. The risk has been magnified by what we perceive as a lack of collaboration from the public sector in the negotiations.
"Our good faith efforts have not produced a deal, however, and have only added more anxiety to what we thought at best was a risky proposition for us moving forward."
Is this going to be another Quebec?(\__/)

Anyone else notice the stats in Yahoo are all garbled today?
I am leading 8-0 over Assmonkey yet neither of us has a point.
Kontiki and Asher are tied 8-8.
Guynemer leads Ninot 8-1.
Any idea as to the cause?

Now the powerplay is fairly good. Good time for it to come into form.
Calgary is far and away the #1 team 5-5 in the league. Improving special teams makes them that much better."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Honestly, I don't go checking every team's PP stats and the Flames aren't really on tv enough here to for me to notice just by watching. I have noticed that neither Tanguay nor Iginla are in the top ten for scoring, though.

Iginla is second only to Sidney Crosby this year in scoring per game, by the way...he's not in the top 10 due to injury time.
Edit:
Crosby: 1.58 points per game
Iginla: 1.35 points per gameLast edited by Asher; March 7, 2007, 00:23."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
