Speaking of Callahan, I was looking up who the first round draft picks that the Rangers traded to Tampa became out of curiosity and they're Josh Ho Sang and Anthony Beauvilier. Isles ended up with both picks.
Good to see Cally back to speed though. Always liked him as a Ranger.
The Bolts' third line during head coach Jon Cooper's tenure has typically been his defensive shut-down line, the group he sends on the ice to handle the opposition's best scoring threat. That's again the case this season with three hard-nosed, gritty players in Chris Kunitz, Cedric Paquette and Ryan Callahan. And when Paquette has been forced to the bench twice this season because of an injury, Gabriel Dumont has slid into his role to ensure that group shows no drop off.
Against Columbus, the Kunitz-Dumont-Callahan group arguably might have been Tampa Bay's best line, their ability to forecheck, force turnovers and create scoring chances setting the tone for the Lightning's physical play all night in the 2-0 shutout victory.
Nash for Yamamoto. Book itThe oilers off to a very slow start. I wonder how long they let it ride before they start making some minor 'desperation' moves? I still think Nash makes sense for them either now or at the deadline; I also wonder if they'd have interest in Holden
The entire nation of Canada must be melting down regarding this development.Holy cow did Price snap or what? I can understand it but never seen him close to that. Channeling his inner Roy and letting it flow I guess. ha ha
I can't be the only one who heard the Mad Men theme start up...
For sure, but some stats are worth suspending logic for. For instance, Desharnais would be the Habs #2 scorer.I mean, to be fair, Bolts are steamrolling everyone and the Habs...aren't.
Serg also has a 18.8 SH%
Gotta love early season waskiness tho.
Stop infringing on my right to laugh at the Habs.Dorsett will be the Canucks all-time top goal scorer. 40+ SH% wowzers.

Crosby just got a 10 minute misconduct for whining to a ref.
