So only 55 players in the league currently wear neck guards.
NHL reports only 55 players wearing neck guards despite no shortage of ‘close calls’
Then again it took forever to get players to wear helmets
Wow, turns out we absolutely could've seen Roy and Melnyk but heads until Dorion settled on DJ
Wow, what a nugget there. I never liked the DJ choice.

If a neck guard is even remotely uncomfortable or distracting, it is understandable. I don't know if it is distracting, or if it is more of a cultural thing within hockey.
I grew up wearing them so they didn't feel uncomfortable. I might have felt differently if I never wore them and then after nearly 2 decades, I had to overnight.I remember wearing them because all the minor hockey associations mandated them after Clint Malarchuk. Looked dorky but I don't recall them being in anyway uncomfortable.
That's way better uptake than the NFL's guardian caps,So only 55 players in the league currently wear neck guards.

Gustavsson gets another shutout

The goalie we gave away is playing like we hoped the goalie we traded for would.
I am hoping that you are 55 years old or older. If not, you don't have a feel for hockey, 1970-1990.At 27 years and 306 days, McDavid is also the fourth-youngest player to reach 1,000 points, behind only Gretzky (23 years, 328 days), Lemieux (26 years, 171 days) and Steve Yzerman (27 years, 291 days).
Congrats to McDavid.
Gretzky being just under 24 years of age to reach 1000 points is pretty pretty pretty good.
then it leaves only one fault... US.. Maybe the Sens and their goalie coach(s). Their defense responsible coaches.Meanwhile….

He's like the Stephen A. Smith of hockey. Blowhard with a mic.How would Biz know what a Stanley Cup victory feels like

Ya fair enough, I just can't stand SAS. But that applies to Biz too lol.I can understand being a hot take merchant like SAS. Drives engagement and helps his numbers.
But Biz is a former player actively simping for a team that never wanted anything to do with him, even today. It's sad as f***.
Do you think he ever asked Mitch Marner for his autograph? Waiting in the parking lot, anxiously looking for the right Escalade, hoping Mitch would stop and roll down his window?
