I was disappointed as well. I think it was poor timing. Discussing Rathbone and a pick would probably still wouldn’t have been enough, but Rathbone’s nasty injury in mid February made that out of the question anyways. We just didn’t have the prospect to offer.

Lol. Mind if I do a J and sneak in a White Russian instead?

Who doesn’t love taking out a second mortgage for refreshments

A few years ago I decided to treat myself, and bought tickets to a couple games. I watched them lose to the Sabres and the coyotes, and nobody cheered throughout either game. You could hear a pin drop between canned music clips. Never again.

Lol, but that’s just like your opinion man.

This is how egos sink teams

LA finishing behind Seattle is a bit suspect Arizona finishing behind the Blackhawks sounds weird, they are not the same team as last season. lotsa ?’s on that list

To play on a team today... 1- Hasek 2- Brodeur 3- Roy g.o.a.t... 1- Roy 2- Hasek 3- Brodeur

Such overwhelming sadness... there are no words.

Stay classy

I said men, because that’s who I was talking to, but women too, yes. People who are old enough to understand that the game is an ad, and that this argument is ridiculous... that age group. im pretty sure that advertising dollar will pick up nicely for that dime of yours, which is obviously why it’s happening, but we’re adults who understand how economics and business work, right? no fans, and players with 10 million dollar contracts, and here we are. The advertisers who brought you hockey from the time you were a child, will support the sport again, with a small patch that shouldn’t leave anyone too butthurt.

Simple. I find a great amount of humor in grown men going directly into the mouth of a corporate vortex, complaining about advertising. Whether on tv, internet or at a game, you have to wade through a million ads to get to the game, through the game and after, to the point that watching any facet of the game without seeing an ad is impossible (digital ads on the ice itself), but this tiny patch, that’s the last straw for you ?!

I can see your concerns, gameplay will be forever changed (not at all) advertizing in professional sport, unheard of! (Reebok anyone?) they are literally skating on ads, and there is no clip of play without ads.

Its officially time at get the marshmallows on a stick

This NHL is a brand Uniforms are branded Stadiums and boards are covered in ads Games are filled with commercials Arenas are branded They flash ads on gigantic house sized screens in the stadiums Even the intermission tots games are sponsored Every other global sport is branded what’re you dudes crying about again?

Long live the king. hoist that jersey!

Hehe, I’d already forgotten about it. 15 years from now nobody will remember Brendan Smith

My money’s on fiala wantin out by the end of the year. There’s not much strength left there, and they’ve screwed their budget too. minnesota did well to keep it a one year, so he’ll still be an rfa, and they’ll maintain control of his rights, which means they keep n asset.

I have to admire his dedication to his vocation, to push on, day in and day out. Beyond personal satisfaction and goals, to sacrifice and charity. A man offering himself to the altar of hockey. Right on man. Mind if I do a jay?

This just in - Christian Dvorak isn’t a top center, he’d be great 3rd line center on a quality team. He only sees those minutes because it’s Arizona, and his stats are scewed as such. Full stop.

Pretty close though 90% of all current cases are in people that unvaccinated. https://globalnews.ca/news/8059996/almost-all-recent-covid-cases-unvaccinated/

Home suck, I know: Sedins Roughly 2600+ games and 2100+ points. Don’t think that’s been beat. the last two years was like a bad reunion tour, and it took a fair amount of the luster off, but they were sensational.

Yeah, you seem super positive.

We’ve all had jobs under a negative/fear based employer, and we’ve all hopefully had the experience of the positive/rewards based employer. Reviews of work performance in both situations will surprise nobody. Note - Comparing Nat to Michael Jordan is plain ridiculous. Championships and MVPs aside, MJ lead the league in scoring ten times. Ten Times. MacKinnon - zero.

Ironic to see the anti-media coach join the media. i look forward to the to the ensuing train wreck.
