Braden Holtby may be washed at 31. Honestly, they would've been MUCH better off trading for Jake Allen who looks like the best backup in hockey.
Yeah, Hole-by was a terrible decision on their part. The guy had a terrible year on a contract year and that still didn’t scare the Canucks?

Very reminiscent of the famous Ovechkin goal.

I like the Notre Dame like helmet. Trouble is, it doesn’t fit with the uniforms they had tonight. Not sure if they have a uniform that goes with it. Maybe the white jersey would look good with it.

Wayne Simmonds out 6 weeks. Leafs in market for winger.
.

.

From the point of view of Leafs general manager Kyle Dubas, who has reportedly expressed some level of interest, Sam Bennett fits the profile of an attractive target: Local guy. Top-five pick with something to prove. Significantly elevates performance in the post-season (from 0.35 to 0.63 points per game). Hard to play against. No cross-border quarantine. Not a pure rental (Bennett will turn RFA in the off-season). Versatile enough to be tried at left wing alongside John Tavares and William Nylander or centre a checking third line.

You have to admit, it’s a genius move to make teams look better than they really are.

Well, if you're a fan of such gaudy gear, you're gonna fall head-over-hockey blades in helmet love with their AHL affiliate's Chrome Domes ...

I am heartened to see that NHL teams aren't saving their terrible aesthetic decisions exclusively for reverse retro night.

Couldn't have happened to a better arrogant asshole. The first right landed definitely got his attention and the second put the frosting on the cake. Nice.

Nowhere in this article does anyone mention the millions of dollars and opportunities hockey afforded Chris Stewart....even all the way down to how his bad attitude lead him off the ice and into a sweet ass job.
