Hey gang.

This website is 15 years old.

Hockeybuzz itself has been around for 20 years, but this version of the website is 15 years old. As an in dependent website, paying our own boills and trying to create a place for you guys to come and be able to talk and discuss all sorts of hickey topics there never seems to be a right time to re-launch a new version…. I definitely wasn’t going to do it with the draft and free agency, because that is one of our busiest times of the year….

But the website is a mess and I have a whole bunch of new writers, many of whom have not even been posted yet on here because of how messed up the website is. Also, there have been blogs and comments disappearing, and people being banned for no reason at all. Along with other data issues, which affected many of you being able to login…..

The new website is really awesome, and I hope that 15-year-old hockeybuzz.com would survive until the site was ready and everything was hopping…. I fear that I asked too much of it.

We have three different teams working on this right now. One is trying to just fix all the database problems on the current site. Another is putting the finishing touches on the future site. And another that is developing a short-term solution that will be a temporary site without the bells and whistles, but will function properly and will enable everybody to post and us to launch new writers, etc.

The temporary site is coming in a few days here…. The full site will be here not that long after…

But at our core, we need to be a site that enables writers to write and readers to comment…

Again, I really appreciate the patience and I’m trying to answer all the emails I’ve gotten. If your season ticket got messed up, you’ll be automatically upped for an extra year.

I am not a coder nor am I a technical person, so it’s time for me to get back to rumors and why you come here, but I just wanted to make sure that you understood what is going on….

Cheers
