I cannot believe how many people are OK with that Marchand play. It’s dirty, it can injure, it was done with malicious intent, it was after the whistle, it was unsolicited, it was needless. It is exactly the play that no one wants in hockey. Or so I thought.
If the NHL thinks this Laissez-faire approach to the Blackhawks is going to fly, they’re in for a rude awakening. This isn’t 1994 anymore.
I know the NHL has been stuck in 1994 for 27 years, but the rest of us haven’t.
“Everyone in the locker room knew about it.” Yeah let Quenneville get another game in, very normal shit from the NHL.
And that COVID list has an expiration date in Chicago.
"The no-trade clause was on CapFriendly" says everything about the state of the league.
When CapFriendly would've nullified this trade (or inquired about the state of the NTC) before the NHL and whatever db they're using, that's a problem.
Imagine having Subban in your system and then trading him and then not having Subban in your system anymore and then having Sergachev in your system and then trading him and then not having Sergachev in your system anymore
One thing I've always wondered is how much Alexander Ovechkin would be revered if he were born in Ontario. One of the best goal scorers in history, surefire first ballot Hall of Famer, and plays like an absolute wrecking ball every shift/every game.
Hey Lefties, “AR” does NOT stand for “assault rifle.” It stands for “ArmaLite rifle.” You want to take our guns but you don’t know jack about guns. See the problem?
Shawn Lalonde, a Black Ace with the 2010
#Blackhawks
, tells Ilta-Sanomat in Finland that he thinks the whole team knew what happened to Kyle Beach and that now "players don't really know what to say."
Lalonde also says he spoke to the Jenner & Block investigators.
Let this be a lesson to US broadcasters — superstars draw. Ratings tonight will be nuclear.
No one wants to watch the Blackhawks fifteen times a year. No one.
In all seriousness I think Vegas has figured out something most of the NHL hasn’t.
Salary retention increases substantially at the deadline. Drive overages, build your roster there, then clean it up in the summer when teams have space/more willing to take /other/ contracts.
Finished my list of untouchables at the trade deadline. Not a long list

It’s 2076. I am 86 years old. Christmas is here.
My grandson leans over to me and explains that the Bills just need one of the Colts, Texans, Bengals, or Browns to win today.
Not sure what momentum the NHL was looking for but 'Stanley Cup favorite closes camp because of coronavirus' followed by 'superstar in hockey's biggest market tests positive' on the same day probably ain't it.
Per source, teams around the league have been engaged as a third party to help facilitate a potential Erik Karlsson/Tampa Bay trade. Have to make salaries work.
Absolutely psychotic how the NHL sat on this sinking ship for two decades and now in a blink are rugpulling the same fan base that put up with this nonsense .. in mere days.

The "Traded By Peter Chiarelli" top six is pretty damn good:
Taylor Hall - Tyler Seguin - Phil Kessel
Jordan Eberle - Rickard Rakell (pick) - Kris Versteeg
Honorable mention to Brad Boyes I guess, who scored 172 goals after his trade.
Yanny/Laurel MYSTERY SOLVED! I messed with the audio file and discovered that basically, the lower frequencies say “Laurel,” and the higher frequencies say “Yanny.” Here’s some audio I messed with that lets you hear both sides.

The reason why the Golden Knigjts keep winning is they by and large win trades, don’t part with assets without reloading, have indoctrinated a winning culture, are ran by smart people, and “manage” the cap very, very well. Other than that though,
From NHL Board of Governors: teams will not wear specialty jerseys in warmups next season. Also: Cap, Ottawa, Arizona and other topics. With Commissioner Gary Bettman here —
When it's all said and done,
#GoHabsGo
should end up with 2 first-round picks for Sean Monahan.
One to take him from
#Flames
, another one back for his play now.
Deep dive on the state of Monahan's game, potential suitors and recent trade comps.
