I have no idea why Quick hasn’t hung up the gloves by now. No game over 900 save percentage. Don’t go out like this. I know it’s just preseason but he’s been done… come on bro.

Just hang them up and don’t go out team hopping like Tim Thomas.
I'd give Thomas a break, he didn't make much money until his early thirties. Quick has made his (hope he set himself up).

The Sinclair purchase was short-sighted at the time, but it was probably doomed from the start. Antitrust laws always confuse me because there are so many loopholes and it takes so long to actually compile enough info to file an antitrust suit.

I remember Disney buying 21C Fox and the sports networks had to be split off before the purchase went through due to antitrust issues. So they sold it and now many of those same games are broadcast out of market on.... ESPN+. So apparently having many local markets was verboten, but having out of market rights for a lot of those same games is ok? As I said, confusing.

Either way, the NHL is getting the shaft a bit if Sinclair falls apart. I don't think it will affect the cap much next season, but 2-3 years down the road looks iffy. Hopefully someone steps in looking for a bargain.
MAX (HBO streaming service) will be broadcasting sports starting Oct 7, looks to be the TNT sports package but will know more when it starts.

Do you know how it will work as far as replays of games and whatnot?
Sorry no, it's just starting today the 7th, it does look like it's just the TNT coverage so MLB-NBA-NHL, good option for cord cutters (I think you need a cable subscription to stream TNT).

Kyle Clifford has scored more points half way through this Leafs/Redwings game than Byfield has all preseason.
No he doesn't. The box scores on NHL.com only show totals for that particular game, not for all of the preseason. Byfield had an assist today and in Australia so Clifford has as many points today as Byfield has this preseason.

Pretty pathetic nonetheless.

He's also outproduced him all preseason; QB is a bum.

For a month maybe.
That's all we need baby.

Then we can send KFC down without waivers; it's all been calculated.
