There's good news and bad news in my return from my vacation in Vegas.

Since I always like hearing the bad news first: it is with great sadness I must report that I will not be buying the Kingston Frontenacs anytime soon. I tried really, really hard too.

Heading back to Las Vegas on Wednesday in another attempt to win enough money to buy the Kingston Frontenacs. The third time has to be the charm right?

This story has pretty much been all I've been working on since last Friday.
I'm pretty sure both Kitchener GM Steve Spott and Erie GM Sherry Bassin are both really tired of talking to yours truly.

With the good news that Ben Fanelli's condition has improved, there's also news that Otters forward Mike Liambas was in town today to meet with OHL commish Dave Branch.

As mentioned in yesterday's update, I interviewed Kitchener Rangers head coach and GM Steve Spott and Erie Otters GM Sherry Bassin for a story in today's Toronto Star.

Just to reiterate here, Ben Fanelli's status is unchanged. He is still listed in critical but stable condition at Hamilton General Hospital, but there are some positive developments to report.

Sunaya Sapurji is in her tenth season covering the Ontario Hockey League for the Toronto Star. She was called up to the AHL beat in 2003-04 to follow the Toronto Roadrunners, but they skipped town sending her back to junior.

Prior to joining the Star, Sunaya worked in television, covered Tier II Jr. A hockey, university hockey (CIAU) and hosted an OHL radio show. She graduated from York University with degrees in English and Mass Communication.

As a youngster she followed the OHL's Toronto Marlies and her favourite player --Brian Collinson.

"I was 10 years old and he signed an autograph for me - automatically making him my favourite player," she recalled. "He's probably selling insurance now."

Sunaya has also done work for ESPN Magazine and a number of U.S. papers. As a proud Canadian, she is also a big supporter of Tim Hortons coffee, which she consumes daily and in large amounts. In addition to reporting on OHL, Sunaya is a full-time copy editor in the sports department at the Star.
