Softy and Dick H1 - Earl returns: is all forgiven? / Would you have made the trade? / Regional Reaction / Chris Ackerley on NHL Seattle

Summary: Earl Thomas is back as of earlier today, just in time for the first game of the regular season. Softy is ready to completely forgive and forget. Are you as quick to dismiss him holding out? Rumors abound that Dallas offered a second-round pick for Earl but the Seahawks wouldn't bite. Would it be worth it to get a second-rounder in exchange for giving up Earl for his likely final year as a Seahawk? We play regional reaction, asking a representative from each region around the Puget Sound to answer the question. Chris Ackerley, son of former Sonics and KJR owner Barry Ackerley, explains why his family is choosing to get involved with the effort to bring an NHL franchise to Seattle.
