Mark Messier continues to be an arrogant little baby. So embarrassing that they named a leadership trophy after this guy.
Expect the whole league to play sets of games like they do in baseball to minimize travel (allows them to pack games together a bit more, and save travel costs).Within the Canadian division, are eastern teams who come out west on road swings going to play each team multiple times? Their big road swing basically consists of three opponents, and everyone else is a short bus ride away except for one team smack in the middle. It pretty much has to be either one miniseries after another or endless games against nearby teams.
Montreal-Ottawa would be the only one where I imagine they'd do ground transport. Toronto to either of the other two is still a long trip that NHLers wouldn't normally do.Within the Canadian division, are eastern teams who come out west on road swings going to play each team multiple times?

The only issue for Canadians teams is that they are in the only 7 team division, so 1 team is off each night. So they need to be more diligent in the scheduling.Expect the whole league to play sets of games like they do in baseball to minimize travel (allows them to pack games together a bit more, and save travel costs).
shoulda talked to his uncle.Michael Benning is off to an incredible start in the NCAA, 7 points in 6 games, 4th round selection by Florida.
I really wanted Canucks to draft him in the 3rd.
Ottawa is about 4 and a half hours from Toronto in the winter, and there's no need for additional ground transport. You just drive straight to the hotel, then straight to the arena for the game. For the Leafs I could see a 6-8 game road trip to Ottawa, Montreal, back to Ottawa, then home to Toronto. It depends on what the protocol looks like. You'd think avoiding unnecessary exposure to the public, especially in airports, would be important and that the league would look for easy opportunities to reduce it. Keeping outbreaks from happening among players is going to be a hell of a lot harder without a bubble.Montreal-Ottawa would be the only one where I imagine they'd do ground transport.

Lunqvist isn't playing this season due to a heart condition, probably the end of his career if we're being honest.
Anthony Duclair signs in Florida for 1 x 1.7m$.
5’10 Dman. He’s a RHD which would help the Canucks depth at that side. Still, Hughes, Rathbone, are in the shorter side. Seems like the Canucks wanted some size on the back end this year.Michael Benning is off to an incredible start in the NCAA, 7 points in 6 games, 4th round selection by Florida.
