What could you get for him at this point, a bag of pucks and some rolls of hockey tape?

One veteran who is unlikely to be on the move is 34-year-old Ryan Kesler.

Kesler, who has just four goals and six points in 44 games this season, owns a no-move clause and told The Athletic he will embrace a rebuild, if that becomes the team's direction.

“I don’t want to go anywhere,” Kesler said. “I love my teammates. I have a family, you take that into account. If we are going into a rebuild, I’m going to do my best to teach the kids how to be a pro and how to win.”


Ducks' Kesler has no plans to waive NMC - TSN.ca

Who's he gonna hire to do that?

If you think I'm posting this because the Flames are close to the top, you're absolutely right :D

The reverse angle does show significant head contact, but Byron has no prior history. I guess what I don't understand is players with a long rap sheet would have likely received the same length of suspension.

/The above statement does not include Tom Wilson

With Byron getting three games for that I can't wait until the next dangerous hit how it will go?

Side note we are talking about a player that in almost 400 games has only 110 PIMS. Gee I guess they consider him dirty? :noidea:

As a reminder, this elbow by Kunitz got nothing (not even a fine).

But Kunitz is a clean respected player that is a straight shooter and never does this stuff. Hence letting him go. :L

If this means a return to the Olympics in 2022, I'm okay with it.
