Interested in linking to our site? Cool. Here's the arrangement.
In order to get your own site on board here, you need meet only these qualifications: > your site should be fan-generated (official, corporate, professional team or league sites will not be considered -- right, like we'll be getting a lot of requests from NHL front offices); > your site should have some semblance of awareness and attitude (enthusiasm is, er, nice, but as you might guess, we're not real keen on sites about how happy someone is over the NHL's plans to expand to San Antonio, or why they think Roman Vopat is the best player ever); > and mainly, your site must first link back to us.
A basic, no-frills link to us automatically gets you on board with a modest one-liner. Feature a pic of the cover of either of the books here and/or a few enthusiastic sentences about them, though, and you'll also get a lovely graphic link and an equally fervent blurb about your site, just like many of the sites above. (Sorry, no banners. C'mon, look at the format. Think squarish.) Just e-mail us using the link at the very bottom of this page. We'll visit your site promptly, and any site that makes the grade will get listed at our next site update.
