If the goal is McKenna, Taylor Hall needs to be an offseason acquisition.

That magic is dead. He hasn’t played for the lottery winning team since us in 21.

Is there nothing sacred the Pegula owned Sabres can't ruin?

I was going to try to come up with something funny that they haven’t screwed up yet, but you know what? I’ve got nothing.

Senators rush prospect to NHL, everyone loses their minds. Yakemchuk ruined forever, career ends in ruin. Lol 😜

Hellebuyck = Clayton Kershaw

[PerreaultForever]

Hellebuyck and Ullmark are both very good goalies who do not elevate for the playoffs and also have trouble tracking the puck with the extra speed you get come playoff time. Some have it, some don't. This has always been the way in hockey.

If they haven't named him captain yet, they're doing it wrong.

Wow what a game between Kings and Oilers.

Mike Sullivan and the Penguins have agreed to part ways. 
 

Boston or New York?

Hmm... New York. Buffalo should grab him but... lolz.

At least there's a chance since he was with Pittsburgh. But yeah... keep the coach who is under a lame duck contract and the assistant who is already slated to be the next head coach.

Won't happen, but Sullivan being brought in as the HC would add IMHO a lot of hope to the fan base.  Couple that with Karmanos becoming the GM and maybe we're onto something.

As it seems Pegula absolutely won't fire Adams, bump him to PoHO (making it a primarily ceremonial role whose real duties are attending league meetings and running interference for Karmanos) and make Ruff a Senior Advisor using his connections when Karmanos' already extensive connections aren't enough to get a deal done.

'Tis still the season of hope.  (At least for another handful of days.)

I wonder if the lure of being a Massachusetts Native who played for BU gives the Bruins an advantage. Plus his daughter and grandson live in Boston, and oh he would be able to coach his son in law Charlie McAvoy
