One of these things is not like the other. Ol' Larry Fitz has some skeletons in his closet

@RealKyper A @NHL phone hearing will take place between @NHL supplemental discipline department and @FlaPanthers Matheson for hit on @Canucks rookie sensation Pettersson. A hit that led to his head injury. @Sportsnet @hockeynight

There are plenty of role models in the NFL and in life to choose from. The NFL, or any sport, will never be full of squeaky clean people. If you want a billion dollar industry to be pumping out all star citizens, I don't care where you look, you're not gonna find it

Tim Horton's pays for Kenya's only hockey team to come to Canada, where some surprises greet them

Peterman is trending #2 worldwide on twitter right now

Yup

Nathan Peterman is a treasure

The game logs are surprisingly extremely detailed http://www.nhl.com/scores/htmlreports/20162017/PL020005.HTM

It's obtainable by anyone. There are scripts designed to data mine the information from the official NHL game logs

Eichel apparently never once started in the d zone last night. Also, if we're going to be having Thompson on a shutdown role taking d zone starts and time, put him in the AHL http://hockeyviz.com/game/2018020069/awayZone

Scandlla and Risto got worked last night http://hockeyviz.com/game/2018020069/byPlayer

Looks like I missed an interesting GDT

@JennaCottrell #Bills Josh Allen just asked Kelvin Benjamin if he wanted to work on routes pregame during warm ups. Kelvin’s answer: No

Good news is Mitts is on another level of prospect than Grigorenko ever was. The fact that Girgs was once viewed by some as our savior is just downright depressing

Also @FriedgeHNIC Tyler Myers just got a 10-minute misconduct for giving the referees a fake applause. Jets have taken 8 penalties in a row And Nolan's career trajectory in a nutshell @NHLFlyers INJURY UPDATE: #Flyers forward Nolan Patrick will be out with an upper-body injury for the next 7-10 days. Peep my edit ?

Different positions, different skill sets, and much different experience levels. I'm nowhere near ready to compare Pettersson to Mitts. If Pettersson was bigger, at least a few GM's had him at #1 https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/31-thoughts-auston-matthews-patrick-kane-william-nylander/

Pettersson

Funny how that works

I think this would make a much bigger impact than some people may realize.

@akaRCN Friedman says he was told this morning that EDM is a really tense place. Hot seat galore. Missed exact quote... Botterill sends McCabe to Edmonton for Drasaitl *pounds F5*

Spin zone time Some pretty interesting charts (look where Eichel, Thompson, and Mitts are, and look where MacKinnon and Landeskog are) http://hockeyviz.com/game/2018020046/byPlayer And we out shot them, with arguably better chanc http://hockeyviz.com/game/2018020046es https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/col-vs-buf/2018/10/11/2018020046#game=2018020046,game_state=final,game_tab=stats
