washington has retained 31% of lars eller's salary. that's an amazingly specific number. thank you, capologists, we have our own version of scorigami now. salarykeepigami?

Out of these two Nashville retaining 4% of Ekholm's salary is 100% weirder. Or 12.9% as weird? gently caress,

Luke Schenn and Shayne Gostisbehere both played on the 2015-16 Philadelphia Flyers and are both worth 3rd round draft picks. Fun facts! (fun not included)

A cut of what, 5% of ticket revenues and concessions? That's gotta be thousands of dollars if not less.

The Coyotes probably held out too long and got less than they could have, but the Senators first is definitely going to be a whole lot better than Boston or Edmonton's

Well sure, I don't think the Bruins or Oilers were really offering more, but the Kings certainly could have. OTT 1st is a reasonable gamble since it could end up #10-15 or ??? next year if they get a WC spot but the 'yotes were supposed to be asking for a lot more on top of that besides a couple of 2nds.

I found no evidence that his parents are anything but standard franco-Quebecois. However! The first result was one of those thousands of identical celebrity creeping info websites and it said his girlfriend is Sarah who is an Instagram influencer. This is not relevant to anything.

I gather Granlund isn't good anymore but seriously wtf is with JFresh:

2020-21: 27P in 51GP, 1.44 5v5 P/60, 2.36 5v5 xGF/60, ~53%ile offensive WAR
2021-22: 64P in 80GP, 1.58 5v5 P/60, 2.38 5v5 xGF/60, ~8%ile offensive WAR

??? Is each one of those years actually a moving average of the past three seasons or what?

Good to hear that the first adjectives describing Ottawa's #4 prospect are articulate and polite, the most critical traits for a long NHL career.

e: also he's close to being PPG... in the OHL.. in his draft+2 season.

His brilliant methodology was population x percentage of people identifying as NHL fans.

Note that he did this by looking up search interest in the term "NHL" and got >50% in most of Canada. Only the 2010 gold medal game got ~half the country to watch it, I guarantee you half of the GTA isn't an "avid" NHL fan.

Also clicked on the link he left for Google search term popularity and right now "NHL" has a search term interest of 51% (relative to Canada) in the Dominician Republic and 37% in Venezuela. Looking forward to the debut of the Caracas Chartraws in 2030.

Rasmus Sandin was a nice pick-up by the Caps, 23 years old and has 5 points in his first 2 games in Washington, and for Boston’s 1st, which is probably going to be late

Timothy Liljegren could be another buy-low candidate too if Keefe keeps playing him below Justin Holl

I don't think Dubas or his potential successor will be stupid/desperate enough to dump Liljegren just to keep Holl, but I may well be proven wrong.

serious post: 100% that should be around the height limit for goalies. like, what do you want to see, this poo poo:



I know scoring is up and goalies have been whining about equipment rules but the ridiculously tall pads are still nonsensical to me. They're not protecting anything, they're just making it super easy to cover the entire bottom half of the net in the butterfly (which shorter goalies can't do because they actually have to bring their knees together to close the five hole). Ban that sicko poo poo.

Like not a single goalie 6'3+ can "stand up" (read: squat in the pooping position) without their pads overlapping. The gently caress. They don't have unusually giant knees.
