    ATLANTA -- The Senators and Pittsburgh Penguins will open the NHL season next year in Prague, according to a rumour on The Hockey News website last night.</p>

    Sources said the topic has been discussed in the Senators' camp, but nothing seems to be definite yet.</p>

    At first glance it seems like a good matchup.</p>

    The league's marquee player in Sidney Crosby, the defending Art Ross and Hart Trophy champ, against a strong, entertaining team in the Senators.</p>

    But what's wrong with that picture? What is there, one Czech player on the two teams?</p>

    That would be Pittsburgh's Peter Sykora.</p>

    Why not send the New York Rangers, who have a handful of Czechs?</p>

    That would create a buzz in Prague and, really, why else do it?</p>
