Oregonian Op-Ed from Winterhawks President Doug Piper states the case for protecting and modernizing Memorial Coliseum.

Memorial Coliseum: Upgrades will preserve the building's value and enhance it for modern use Doug Piper:We oppose an approach that pits baseball fans against hockey fans and displaces one sports organization in favor of another. Memorial Coliseum is our home, and with smart, cost-effective upgrades Portland can build on what works.

Congratulations to the Portland Winterhawks on developing the #4 (Ryan Johansen) and #5 (Nino Niederreiter) picks in today's NHL Draft.
