seems like something that should be fought about in a barn

Does Vegas even have barns?

that's a really bad read by Kaprizov on the rush before, that pass had no chance of making it to Boldy

There are people that don't hate the Vegas franchise still eh?

Knoblauch had to get fired after Edmo asked about Cassidy, can't have a lame-duck coach. I think Cassidy still gets a job somewhere this year.

Today on HF Boards there was a thread about whether Mitchell Miller (the racist abuse enthusiast) would get an NHL job after starring in the KHL this season, and thankfully most of the posts were emphatic that he did not deserve one. I did, however, think that if any team were to do it, Vegas is the one.

Supposedly St. Louis rejected Wallstedt & Yurov + picks/prospects for Robert Thomas

I'm sure Yzerman was in on him but I don't think Danielson + Kasper + Cossa + 1st or whatever is close to that.

practice what were your feelings on Bobby McMann? I'm curious if he's physical in an impactful way or just finishes his checks.

I don't know if the Wings will be able to improve much in free agency, but he's the guy I'm looking at. Probably a 20/20 guy long-term but he had 160 hits last year so he's engaged. I could see him working well with Larkin and Raymond. Then the third line would be Kasper, Finnie, and MBN, and they'd hit everything. Fourth line depends on if Rasmussen, Compher, and Appleton are still around.

The Toronto Maple Leafs announced Monday morning that Domi suffered “complications” from a previously undisclosed surgery to address an undisclosed “issue” the team says he played through last season.

He will be out “indefinitely” and re-evaluated at the start of training camp, according to a release from the team.
Sounds like his “balls” “fell off”

I regret wishing that Domi would disappear from the Leafs roster if this is what it resulted in

you know in draft guides there are comparables, I wonder if any current swedes play like Alfredsson. Stenberg in the roughly 10 total minutes I've watched of him looks more like a Bratt type of player, which feels to me to be similar to Eklund, of which a much worse version is Arvidsson. has Sweden stopped producing Alfredssons?

I watched the 3rd period of the Canada Finland game, came away impressed with Sam Dickinson who imo should have been one of the 6 in the 6-on-5 but also the coach should change lines to put a different 6 or at least a few different players out instead of asking Ryan O'Reilly and Sid to chase down picks for 2+ mins. Thomas is also pretty sick
