Hearing scuttlebutt from ESPN insiders that NHL asked to move the Vegas-EDM game to 8pm ET.
Hearing NHL asked ESPN to move baseball to ESPN2, but ESPN declined. Same rumor is that ESPN also declined to trade games with TNT.
For now, only a rumor inside ESPN.

Can confirm from people who have spoken with Sidney Crosby over the last several days -- he is NOT leaving but instead invested in turning this around.
My opinion is that the stuff you're seeing out there is pretty irresponsible if not absolute nonsense.

Per Penguins source, the reason for the trade holdup:
The Penguins have been unable to reach Patric Hornqvist to make sure he approves the trade to Florida.

The Pirates went for it.
The Pens are better than last year.
Pitt has a pair of rock star coaches who have the school on the right track.
The Steelers will be very good.

When they raise the jersey to the rafters tomorrow -- the reason Jaromir Jagr chose No. 68 was because 1968 was the year Russia (Soviet Union) sent troops into Czechoslovakia.

What we're hearing the Penguins are very close on Erik Karlsson. Believed to be two teams, and Penguins are one.

So, you're telling me the Penguins got a top notch center for a goalie who may or may not play in the NHL in 3-4 years, a defenseman they weren't going to re-sign, and a first-round pick which figures to be 29, 30 or 31st.
Yeah, Jim Rutherford got 'em again.

On behalf of Pittsburgh Hockey Now and NHN, I'd like to extend our deepest sympathies to Adam Johnson's family, his teammates past & present, and all of the lives he touched. Our interaction was too brief. We share in the sadness as the hockey world is a little bit less today.

I've waited to get this one off my chest. Yes, Jeff Carter has not scored, and we know why.
But those who bashed him for being in the lineup for a final game in LA are petty with a capital F. His career deserves a few moments like tonight. And the locker room would agree 100%

Childish.
I always try to put myself in the shoes of people to whom I ask questions.
This is a 100% fair and necessary question. Tomlin's reaction is theater. He knew it was coming. He planned this.
