Bill Zito moving up the chain in Hockey Ops and Basil McRae filling AGM role. Very nice.

My son's team helped out with this (he couldn't due to summer gym). He volunteers a lot as a skating teacher. He is so bummed he missed "Lexier".

The girl in the hoodie in the Stinger pic is one of his defence(wo)men. The guy in shorts in the back of that shot is the top C.

Shouldn't that be a Ford F-150 instead of a Toyota Tundra?!?

Should be a CR-V


But I think Toyota is the official sponsor.

Tundra's made in Texas. Murican level just below F-150. Accceptable.

Quite honestly surprised it's not a Honda Ridgeline.



Let's check in on Prospect Camp...
Emil Bemstrom

Liam Foudy

Sexier Texier

So, this year's theme is apparently "Top Cheese"

Ridgelines aren't made in Murrsville.

But they sure sell a bunch of 'em up there. Seems like half the people I know that live up there have one.


And they can't squeeze the giant bee head into an NSX or Accord.

You gotta quit associating with Valley folk. That's diesel country.

A large percentage of the people I work with seem to be married to people who work for Honder. So my sample size is likely skewed.

Actually, I think I saw more F-150s in the parking lot when I worked for R&D. That was 10 or so years ago, though, so it was relatively new. I don't think many people wanted a truck built on a minivan's chassis.

We signed Somerby to a one year extension! Hey-o!

 

[Sgt Brutus]

Duchene leaves and takes less money

Panarin leaves and takes less money

Bob leaves for about the same amount probably less term

We were all preparing for it but it’s hitting like a mac truck. Hard to keep a positive look on losing a #1 center, winger, and tendy from your first ever playoff run past the first round. Not a good look

I take some exception to this list.

I mean, yeah we lost Davidsson, Duclair, Abramov and picks, but that was to GET Duchene, Dzingel, McQuaid and Kinkaid (however briefly). I mean why not add in the picks we used to pick Abramov and Davidsson too? And we can't really lament the loss of Kinkaid when he never played a game for us. And had McQuaid not been killed (fuck Andrew Shaw) he would have certainly gotten a contract.

We should take a long organizational look at why three guys (apparently) took less to play elsewhere. And why we didn't bother to even try to re-sign Dzingel who was asked to play a different game than he wanted only to get benched in the playoffs.



What we need is a live camera feed in all Ubers in Nashville.

Fair and great question.

Yay! Captain mediocre is back!

Honestly wish they'd have given him a 2 year deal. He'd be easier to trade that way.
