If you remember on Monday I was pretty irked, rather stunned, that the website had been rejected by the NHL for an affiliate advertising program. It must be noted that I indicated I hadn’t been entirely put off by hockey:

Let it be known that this won’t keep me from attempting to cover hockey on the site. And if you guys are willing to make amends I’ll be waiting with open arms. Thanks

Well, I’m pleased to say that they have stepped up and redeemed themselves. Here’s an email I received early Tuesday morning from an affiliate specialist at GSI Commerce

Hi Larry,

I noticed on your blog that you were rejected from our affiliate program. This was a mistake and you have now been accepted into the program. Please let me know if there is anything else you need. Thanks!

Aww, thanks guys, I’m blushing. I would like to take the time to announce how pleased I am to be working with the NHL in efforts of promoting hockey in a positive manner. And all the elves and unicorns and manatees joined hands to dance around in circles celebrating the thought that all is right in the world.
