Ongoing NHL Thread - Part Brock and Roll Four Lines

[mattola]

part of me thinks that the decision to keep the cap increase at a minimum for this year was based on the analysis that it would fuck the Canucks most of all.

I am sure our incredibly intelligent management group will get us out of this

King Henrik got the call.

Tom Barrasso as well...

He can go in the asshole wing.

 

[puckhead]

no Mogilny?

he's probably the most worthy of the lot.

I watched, from a reasonable distance, someone on Twitter legitimately trying to make an argument that if Lundquist is a HoFer, then Corey Crawford should be too.

Like seeing 3 goalies in the class. Dislike that CuJo isn't one of them. Guess they didn't want to really set people off with 2 non cup winning goalies going.

Very happy for Hitch. Can't understand why no Mogilny. That is an extremely important story to tell in addition to him being a brilliant player.

That year coaching the Oilers really affected Hitch (and not in a good way).

Ken Hitchcock is on DonnieandDhali as I type - Just said he was shocked when Lanny called him

Worse than a jersey fowl?

My son got pictures with Bedard and Kent Johnson Tuesday afternoon at Scotiabarn in Burnaby as they have been training with Kaivo Hockey daily (and my son is there with academy).

Heres a picture showing the height difference between he and kent johnson. My son is 5’7. Johnson has skates on and my son doesnt so my son isnt entirely a midget. lol

I would post the picture with Bedard but they are damn near the same size in the picture and I dont want to show my sons face lol

So the morale of the story is that all teams should pass on Connor Bedard so the Canucks can take the dwarf at 11

we love small players. at that size Bedard will be nothing more than a Cliff Ronning... who wants that in this league. WE WILL take him as a favour and for nostalgia

 

[jstewismybastardson]

and now tangent time ... Kaivo Hockey is very cool ... the drills they have the guys do are really intense and innovative ... Kaivo Hockey | a high intensity environment in which technicalities are tediously taught

What I dont get though ... is the company is owned and run by Justin Rai ... who is the skills coach/in the player development dept of the Seattle Kraken they just let him train all these other nhlers and prospects ???

Wow. The Preds take in about $10,000 each night they have special unis. Auction off the warmups and use the money for their charitable foundation.

And what about Hockey Fights Cancer? They arent saying no to cancer, are they?

The way I'm reading it is no special jerseys period.

I didnt watch the video ... but the tweet just mentions the players wont wear special jerseys in warmup

what are the chances the league/teams still has the special jerseys for sale to the public though lol

/I am gonna say they still have the special event nights, they have the special jerseys that they can sell, and the teams have a little pre produced video that they put on the big screen pre game with 2 or 3 players that are willing to support the causes in question
