Between McDrai’s elite bromance, Jesse the Bison King, good guy Hyman, middle-aged young phenom Bouchard, Darnell “Most expensive hands to ever punch your teeth out” Nurse, and possibly the most passionate goalie in the league, this may be the most easy to love roster we’ve had.

Holland's asked why he extended the PTO, he says "Virtanen was found not guilty in a court of law", said the phrase "not guilty" four times, "we have to trust the league system" multiple times, "the legal system has guided me to give him a pro tryout"...

Weird phenomenon: dudes that hate female joy.
Absolutely wild to see something as dumb and harmless as this and write a fan fiction about corporate culture that doesn't exist to prove you don't just hate women.
Corporate life is full of ridiculously capable and ambitious women.
The reason this video bothers people so much is that alot of men in white collar work have to suffer through dreadful, stressful corporate jobs to make a living, which in turn subsidizes the non productive roles like whatever these women do.

Holland saw Ceci cratering all year, a need to add one more winger, and a 1B goalie.
His adds (an aging 34yo C, a 4th liner and a 6/7 D) have racked up 3 total points in game 10 of the playoffs.
He spent a 1st, 4th and 5th.
Ken didn't help this team. A failure. A flop.

Really hoping Holland realizes just how important to our d-core re-signing Kulak is. Like… it’s very, very important. He’s a faster, more offensively savvy Adam Larsson without the hits that could easily by our 2LD for the next 5 years, and at a decent price tag. Bank that win.

Puljujarvi just broke up a play in the offensive zone but had no second checker to grab it, then skated back and broke up a play in our zone.
