    Bertuzzi one of the only NHLers to refuse to get vaccinated but also one of the few NHLers to adopt a neck guard thus far. Ok. Alright.

    If Zegras actually said what it looks like he said... that's pretty despicable stuff.

    DeBrincat, who was 12 when this happened and had nothing to do with it, is handling the situation better than anybody actually involved in 2010.

    Alex DeBrincat describes the report as disturbing and tough to learn of what happened. He says the team and the organization have to make sure nothing like that happens again.

    Only a few weeks ago I bought a Tkachuk jersey for one boy and a Gaudreau jersey for the other one. Excellent.

    Wonder how Seth Jones is feeling about the Chicago tank plan as he begins his 8 year deal.

    Matt Tkachuk. Jesus christ. Don't sign franchise players to 3 year bridge deals I guess.

    Gavin McKenna is having the best D-1 junior season since Mario Lemieux. MARIO. LEMIEUX.

    The talk of 'maybe Bedard isn't as good as we thought' while he's having 99th percentile productive seasons for his age... already in the NHL... they'll be fun to look back on in a few years. Reminds me of when MacKinnon was doing the same thing and you heard the same chatter

    James Hagens ... "thanks for picking me" to the Bruins executive brass... who could not hear him at all and didn't even know he was talking to them. Very nice. Very nice stuff.

    Montreal out here making trades to make themselves much better next year while holding a top 3 prospect pool and giving up very little from said prospect pool to make said trades. That's how you do it! Bergevin to Hughes has been a revelation for that franchise.
