At the very last minute, the New York Islanders and defenseman Calvin de Haan managed to avoid arbitration.

 

It was announced on Wednesday, via Mike Kelly of NHL Network, that de Haan and the Islanders have come to terms on a one-year bridge deal, bringing the blue liner back to the team for the 2017-18 season for $3.3 million.

Mike Fisher announces his retirement 

@adater

I'm hearing deal between Big Z and Avs is close. Low 2s AAV

 

That's a legit handle, he's a writer for the local area around the Avs and has 35k followers

 

Also, an indefensible human being. But probably still well-sourced.

In similar instagram fashion, I could watch Connor McDavid do this all day: https://www.instagram.com/p/BXYC1lqBRfU/?taken-by=mcdavid97

 

Also, this is what I mean by Eich being careful - Chychrun shared this video about a month before needing knee surgery that'll keep him out indefinitely: https://www.instagram.com/p/BVvr6cfjHid/?taken-by=jakobchychrun

That box jumping stuff is all the rage right now. Point being: Not a weird out there training technique.

Oh for sure, it was just an ominous post of something that destroys my knees just watching haha. 

 

Like, they're going hard enough to be able to do that insane box jump, and that is apparently too hard for Jakob's knees to handle. 

 

I want the players training diligently, but there's a line that I bet too many young athletes cross.
