I'm trying and failing to think of any successful NHL goaltenders that have jumped straight to the NHL from NCAA without spending significant time in the AHL/ECHL (like 100 games or so).

If you wanna hit the time machine, Tom Barrasso went straight from high school to the NHL and won the Vezina his rookie year

I'm sure Ovie wants no part of a rebuild but is he really ok with the ship just sinking slowly? He doesn't strike me as ultra-competitive compared to other superstars like Crosby or MacKinnon, so maybe it's enough for he and his buddies to just run out the clock. But I have to believe he wants at least one more shot at a postseason run before retiring.

I think the goals record probably means a lot more than another cup

Yeah I hosed up by picking Peter Forsberg to score 40 and then ended up not giving an answer for an ex Colorado / Ottawa player.. which I spent 10 minutes trying to think of one instead of giving an alternate answer on the 40 goal scorer and couldn't do it lol.

fun game

This was me, except for Caps/Sens

If they called interference by the book it would transform the NHL into almost a different sport. Like there is someone interfering with someone almost literally every second of contested play.

The Islanders would never win a game again

Sean Avery has four or five lines in one scene in the Oppenheimer movie and it was incredibly distracting for me. He's a nothing character for anyone who's not a rabid hockey fan, but man I have no idea why he was there. His lines could've been said by any other established character in the movie and he does not reappear after that. It's like he won a contest to be in it or something.

I just saw Oppenheimer and did not recognize Avery at all. Who was he supposed to be

If you are balding it's much more dignified to face the music and cut it short rather than try and hide it with a combover or hair plugs.

My uncle who works in New York was actually just got a prerelease copy of the report this morning. I feel pretty safe no one will notice if I leak it to SAS so here it is:
code:
They are all good lads who mean well.
Unfortunate things happened, but it wouldn't be fair to destroy anyone's career over it.
Boys will be boys.
We will not be taking questions at this time.

The delay in the report is the NHL desperately trying to find ways to clear everybody

I want to know more about his allegedly sitting on this story for 6 weeks before deciding to drop it. He's going to be praised by some as a champion for the players, but is still a piece of poo poo.

Straight outta the Trump administration.

If a normal journalist say on something for a while, I assume it's because they're double and triple checking everything

He got saved because CBJ don't want search for a new GM two days before camp opens

But it wasn't reported until a week or 2 ago. If the story broke immediately and Babcock was out then, Jarmo is probably out of a job

Been wondering lately, what is an appropriate punishment for the NHLers involved? A suspension kind of seems like a joke considering the crime, but I doubt the league/NHLPA would approve a lifetime ban

The union can't even get a reasonable escrow rate, no way that can block anything from the Hockey Canada tbinf
