Of course it's the Sabres who are the first team in hockey history to score in a period where they did not record a single shot on goal.

It’s the first since they’ve been keeping track, which is the mid 60s.

I can't imagine it happened before that.

Wild are in a lot of pain. Not that I feel bad our team goes through that every year. Avs need to take advantage and pass them in the standings + put some distance between.

I can't think of a more worthy organization in NHL history to hold this distinction.

PITTSBURGH — Evgeni Malkin’s Stanley Cup rings are no longer missing.

Malkin’s rings, missing since his home was targeted by burglars last Saturday, were found elsewhere in the house, Allegehy County Police said Thursday.

Thieves knew what they were doing, you can't steal those rings because each one is individualised to the player including his number. If they tried to sell it, others would have known it was stolen.

The black market doesn't really care though. Art, and jewelry are things that have beauty, and value, more in the individual's eye viewing them than any intrinsic value.

I'm pretty sure if Tony Montana wanted a stanley cup ring, he would have Tkachuk's already.

Yea and the Oilers are open to trading Nurse

Wonder how a Nurse/Jones swap would work out. Maybe a change of scenery could be good for one of them lol.

I still think Jones would be a good defenseman on a good team. Hard to play defense on bad teams every year.

I don't see how they can work it out with the cap, but if there was no cap, I think he could have a mini Blake trade effect on the Avs. That dynamic size and offense combo can be an X factor in the playoffs if the D man plays well.

Could bump Manson down to a 3rd pair role and help the depth, and reliance on him being injury prone and the only D man with size too. Don't see it happening though and it'd be a big risk.

Nah, stuff like that would usually just be disassembled. It still has gold and gemstones in it that would make it quite valuable to thieves. Most likely, somebody would buy them, rip them apart, then sell them piece by piece. One diamond looks like every other one, nobody would know where it came from. If the thieves had ethical considerations about destroying something priceless like that, they would probably hesitate to burglarize the house at all.

How are the Sabres involved in all the wackiest stats that happen in this league.

Ned should have fought whoever it was that hit him when he shot for that goal, he had an assist alreasy and could have gotten the Gordie Howe hatty
