You can't ruin Peterman. There wasn't a chance in hell he was/is ever going to be an NFL quarterback

He is finishing out his contract. By going into a different role he's helping Tampa better transition into their new GM What pressure are you talking about?

That was by far and away the coolest way to announce a contract extension I've ever seen Makes sense. Lost out on Tavares, now in for Karlsson

He wants to go home to his family and be the GM of the team he is nicknamed 'The Captain' of. The Bolts are not in cap hell, and if anyone had a plan or a way out of it, it was Yzerman anyways. Do they have some things to deal with? Sure. But they're far and away the Cup favorite this year, and are set for years to come. Why would you bail that scenario for some issues that may or may not be real, and head to a team in disarray, for any other reason than family and nostalgia

Wouldn't matter to me. The thought of watching McDavid with Karlsson and Chiarelli getting more senseless praise is legitimately nauseating

Longstanding notions that younger players don't like playing for Babcock are probably pretty accurate @reporterchris Mike Babcock, on Auston Matthews's desire to have more assists than goals this season: "Well then Willy's got to show up and Willy's got to shoot it under the bar."

If the Oilers get Karlsson kill me now

Over the entire course of the summer, and everything that's gone on, Erik Karlsson is, still, an Ottawa Senator

Thank God. I can finally stop posting in the Complain Thread now FWIW: This is the first time McKenzie has tweeted anything about Karlsson since Free Agency. And, with the Pacioretty trade, the timing makes sense

He has the Crosby/Laine bill goat beard going on. We're destined for great things this season boys

Is Bosa playing Sunday? That will go a long way to determining if it's gonna be remotely close or not

What smoke is coming from Tampa?

I used to build my week around Sabres games. On Tuesday nights I'd come home and it would feel like a Friday. Thursday nights I'd grab a beer and wings with my dad and head out to meet some friends for our second Friday night. Saturday nights weren't a waste if I didn't have anything going on, in fact I liked staying in because the Sabres were on. West coast games meant a long GDT and something to look forward too all night. I'm pretty excited to have that feeling back

Entire company has developed cover your as$ practices. So for 8 hours yesterday I had to hunt down and mock a sht ton of data for a total of 6 lines of code that meant nothing, just to pass an arbitrary level of code coverage.

Read: 4 games

They have Heiskanen coming who, for my money, is the best d prospect outside of Dahlin. The depth issue is a real thing though, it's what killed them last year

@MikeInBuffalo @DarrenDreger believes that the Nylander side may be asking for as much as $8 Million on a long-term deal, while the #Leafs may be offering closer to Nikolaj Ehlers ($6 M AAV) or Sean Monahan ($6.375M AAV).

To be fair we're only 2 weeks into it

This guy fcks

It's more of just a shot at him

@TheFourthPeriod Columbus has signed head coach John Tortorella to a two-year contract extension through the 2020-21 season

@BrettCyrgalis Wonder how much #Isles brass is over John Tavares? How about this from Lamoriello today: “There’s no aftermath. Players come and go. It’s different if they had won championships. It’s different if they had had a lot of success. They haven’t done much.

Gotta leave the cabin in the woods sometime PA

Is it though?

Too much riddle for me
