I want everyone to know that on the thread where someone was asking when people believed the season would start I gave a specific date of around January 20....just in case I’m labeled a genius...lol

After his play with us last season, he probably will be left alone

56 games? Really? The league has done 48 Before. It's why I went with that. It's more than half and enough to get enough games in against teams and then you have a full playoff format.

Patty was mentally in quarantine before anyone.

Over on The History of Hockey, they're discussing players whose last seasons were underwhelming . Mike Comrie was the first guy to come to mind for me. It wasn't entirely his fault, but man... his time here is depressing to think about.

That Tangradi-Malkin-Comrie line was fire in preseason.

I can remember the fans "woo"-ing in Nationwide like it was yesterday.

Am I crazy or did the initial reports from the Isles indicate that the skate never even touched Boychuk’s eye.

Islanders' Johnny Boychuk being forced to retire after serious eye injury

"Boychuk got cut across his right eyelid by the skate of Montreal Canadiens forward Artturi Lehkonen back on March 3. The veteran defenseman had to get stitches and plastic surgery due to the incident.
Despite the severe mature of the injury, Boychuk revealed in June that his eye "seems to be almost like 100 percent." It didn't seem as though Boychuk was considering stepping away from the ice."

We dont question a LTIR retirement when a team is in cap trouble.

This post gave me a magical rash, lost eyesight in one eye, and I was told by my employer to stay at home and avoid all physicals.

I called bullshit the moment that news hit.

It's still bullshit. It's abuse of the LTIR protocol.

Wait.... So is the magical rash healing your eye or causing you to lose sight? Im confused. Either way you should exploit it and say it heals covid.

Probably made you shave your beard too., Bunch of jerks!

So, how many more slightly overpaid and mediocre vets does Lou have to move to make room for Barzal?

It’s starting to ramp up.
