I've always hated the Kings jerseys. Probably because I think piping does not belong on hockey uniforms. The Sabres had some horrid uniforms too, with the same cheesy piping. An awful look, IMO.

Doughty is getting worked out there (albeit possibly injured). We're definitely spoiled with McDonaugh. Apperently doughty is still "much better" though 
and karlsson is a better defenseman, too.

I would never say that Karlsson is a better defenceman than Doughty. Karlsson coughs the puck up so much, even if he is a rare talent with puck handling and scoring talent.

Is "piping" the vertical lines? If so they absolutely DESTROYED some of the best jerseys in the NHL in the Blues. The Blues jerseys are mediocre now. They added those damn lines and they're brutal.
If that's not what piping is forget this post.

Yes, that is 'piping'. The stuff is like a pipe, just a small diameter circular fabric element that is sewn in for contrast. The white accents running up the Kings' jersey. It looks so low-rent, which seems to fit in with sports like basketball, but hockey should be better. Hopefully, taste prevails and it is relegated to ugly jerseys like what the Kings wear.
The Blues went from top 2 jerseys in the NHL IMO to an atrocity. I think "low rent" is a great way to put it. I literally get sad what happened to those jerseys every time I watch that team play. Those jerseys from back in the day remind me of my early teenage years and are very nostalgic. They just ruined a piece of my childhood by destroying the Blues jersey. I started this on the main board.

I always felt like I was in the minority about it. Just think if NYR showed up with that look, I like to think everyone would march on MSG with torches and pitchforks

Is there a reason for it? I don't know why a contrast is needed. NBA jerseys have always had it, but there's no reason why they have to copy those jerseys. NBA jerseys are mostly pretty lame to begin with. NHL jerseys used to be the best in sports.
I was rooting hard for San Jose, but I almost feel bad about them winning, LA was the much better team in OT.
It's actually bad for the Rangers that Callahan had another no show in the playoffs. Less of a chance he gets resigned and we get that 2nd round pick.
Darryl Sutter must be a riot at parties. Holy ****, my sponge has twice the personality of him.

I have the Sharks winning it all this year provided Niemi doesn't implode. They're absolutely dismantling a top 5 NHL defense and goalie in LA and Quick.

It's a matter of how the front office views two high draft picks as enough compensation for losing their franchise player.
Keeping Callahan makes sense, because he was great in the regular season for them. But Jesus Christ, who the hell will pay 6 million for a terrible playoff performer.
Buffalo will offer a ton. They could care less about the playoffs.

In-person hearing could mean 6+.
Last time he was suspended was in 2011 for the elbow and that was 11 games
