Interesting Development Plan (aka Team SpiderTech presentation)

As per Lyne's article (or the ones in the Canadian mainstream media like this Toronto Star blog ), Canadian ProConti team SpiderTech had their team presentation today at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, which made for some cool pics.  And Steve Bauer has an interesting concept for finding more potential Canadian cycling prospects - try to recruit them from hockey (seeing as Canada has a large pool of hockey players, that would be ice hockey for those out there who need me to specify ;-) ).   I suppose in a way it's not much different than recruiting former rowers (Rebecca Romero) or XC skiers (Tara Whitten) to become track cyclists... any thoughts on this strategy?  I suppose anything to encourage more Canadian athletes to try cycling competitively is a good thing. 

and on a side note re: cycling in Canada - it was announced earlier this week that TSN has obtained the rights to Canadian English TdF coverage for several years (after OLN announced they wouldn't be covering it in future, and many speculated it would move to TSN-rival Sportsnet which is owned by the same parent company as OLN).  I'm curious to know what they plan to do with the rights, ie. any Canadian-specific coverage or simply just rebroadcasting Versus as before.
