It sucks that Mcdavid won't win olympic gold for 20 years, but i'm comforted in knowing Marchand never will. Retirees and prospect olympic competition sounds fun, though. Ryan Smyth passing to Jaeydin waznitsky-macdonald for the gold will never match crosby to mcdavid , but whatever.

If anything, Bettman/the owners probably want to treat/pay the players like they do in the NCAA.

I'm not sure players would have any incentive to, but I really want them to opt out of whatever WCH plans the NHL puts forward now. I'm really peeved and if I had any conviction I would boycott the NHL but we all know that's not going to happen.

Speaking of goal milestones, JAM reached 30 goals today. Pretty cool to finally see him killing it in the NHL. A shame about the rest of the Panthers, of course.

I only started watching hockey because people kept telling me it was the only worthwhile thing to watch at the winter olympics. Like I straight up wouldn't be a hockey person without the Olympics. The IOC can burn in hell, but they won't have to be drinking buddies with every majors american sports league commisioner and 80% of team owners. Whoever gave Melnyk his Kidney or whatever it was should ask for it back.

Unfortunately the transplant contract contained a limited No-Take-Backsies clause - the original donor can't reclaim the kidney, but they can submit a list of 8 other potential recipients, of which Melnyk must pick one to re-donate the kidney to.
