Maybe they need to acquire a/nother goalie

 

[Vegas Mac]

Why would Vegas be a more attractive dumping ground than other places? Are you referring to the 3 2nd rounders Vegas has in 2020 I think?

Personally, I think teams learned from the Vegas experience and we will see fewer deals and no prospects like Tuch and Theodore given up.

Teams will be like just take a guy and be done with it.

Not needing to give up a player to Seattle means Vegas has some flexibility to add a player where the other teams won't. Which means potential for draft resources in return.

Would not surprise me if Vegas parleys that rule set into a player who strengthens the roster.

The Rangers did the Knights a favor tonight, coming back to beat the Ducks. Saw some highlights on NHL Network, typical Duck dirty hockey, crosschecking, cheap shots, late hits. Glad the boys in Blue turned the tables on them.

There is 1 way... but if it happened we would never know about it, because it's already always happened.

Would moving practices to nighttime make NHL players sleep...

Paywall

Pundit suggests that teams move practice to approximate time of games in part to help with improved sleep.

But culture and family time would be impacted.

CBA just mandates reasonable time for practice.

Thoughts?

 

[IceNeophyte]

Just have the games at 11:30 AM

 

[hangman005]

Define reasonable, 10PM would be reasonable for me, maybe not others, while 6am might be reasonable for others but not me.

I didn't think you needed sleep. You're always online!

Why the f*** do the Knights have the most played games in the NHL right now?

Why the **** do the Knights have the most played games in the NHL right now?

The better question is, will that extra 2-5 game days of rest in the second half of the season be good for them?

I didn't think you needed sleep. You're always online!

I'm actually two little people standing on each other shoulders... well when I go out, when I don't one sleeps while the other is awake for 24 hour coverage

EBUG for practice today. Might have call up for tomorrow's game.
