These Canadian teams are killing each other. They understand these games are fake, right?

I mean, I hate to see players get injured but if teams want to be stupid well,

They were supposed to downfall after losing Thomas. They were supposed to downfall after losing Chara. They were supposed to downfall after losing Bergeron.

At this point, I think it’s safer to assume that Korpisalo will somehow become otherworldly than betting on a Bruins downfall.

The first one is bullshit. Everyone knew Rask was going to be a star. The other two, yeah 100%.

I’m confused about the preseason drama. Is it better if Wifi injures Stutzke in game 3 of the regular season?

They could just suspend people for 20 games when they do something insanely dirty instead.

I am amazed that the Laine injury was only a sprain. That had every appearance of being a career altering major injury.

Ottawa had 3 guys get injured last night, oof

Celebrini sat after a hit

Montreal fans crying about a body hit while justifying an elbow attempt to the head

Rempe trying to run NJ players.

And its only the preseason…

At this point, why even play any of your NHL talent during the preseason? Use it as an opportunity to see how your long term and middling prospects look to see if anyone is ready to break out, but outside of that, its just not worth playing them in meaningless games that seem to get players hurt more often than not because they're not all always playing at 100% effort.
