A piece of my childhood just died. My absolute favorite player when I was little.

My goodness, how old are you?

Oh man I would have loved to been working the door when Barnaby got out of line. Always hated him.

He played well into the 1970's.

Half as old as RobbK maybe?

Arguably, every single underdog won last night. Avalanche lost to keep stride with the blues, which is the only one I really care about.

NHL has recommended teams close their locker rooms to all media at the guidance of the CDC due to threat on coronavirus

Taking a couple of days off from watching hockey so I’m watching MLS tonight. Watching the Sporting KC home opener and what a great atmosphere they have there. It’s a great sports town...it’s a shame they never got another chance at the NHL. I really believe it would thrive in KC.

Let them meet in the playoffs.

Love seeing Maroon take Chara down so easily after Jack Edwards made his comment.



And another

There are very few people in this world that I truly despise. Edwards is one of them. If I could kill him and get away with it... Well Bruins broadcasts would be a lot more bearable.

If you're gonna go that far please kill Andy Brickley too.

Oh ok. I’m a generous fellow.

Sensing of that type would require accuracy in the millimeter range. I'd like to see evidence that any such sensing technology exists today. If you've got it, T.C., hold out for more money.

nah, it's the same tech they've been using to track runners to the thousandth of a second for years.

Measuring elapsed time ("runners to the thousandth of a second") and measuring relative position (where is the edge of the puck relative to the blue line or goal line?) are two entirely different problems. I guess I won't be investing in your hugely successful start-up tech firm.

it's still x-sensor crosses y-line and triggers a thing to happen. same tech.

Like I said, hold out for more money. There's at least one reason the NHL hasn't introduced your idea into game play. Maybe it's your team of lawyers.

NHL should bring back Fox trax

How long do we think its going to be until hockey games are being played in empty stadiums? Happening for a lot of soccer leagues in Europe; I'm worried its only a matter of time.

A gate driven league with these owners we have? No way it happens.

Maybe. NBA is reportedly already considering it.

The NBA can afford to do that

Tim would be good on an NHL debate. Just sayin................

That would be so weird to watch a hockey game without fans in the stands.
I mean, how would our boys in blue score on the man advantage without the power play dance to motivate them???
