Around the NHL - 2024-25 season.

I hate the Hawks and what transpired there, but people love to conveniently "forget" that Bowman actually did bring the situation to the attention of his superior and it was his superior that proceeded to help bury it. Obviously when nothing was happening, Bowman should have done more, but of everyone involved, he was the only one that actually did the right thing at any point in time.

This, I actually didn't know.

Markstrom is going to miss time (lucky if it's not the rest of the year).
Sucks for Jersey, helps Calgary out. That could end up being a top 20 pick this year now, because they are not the same team without Markstrom.

If it's very serious (and it looked that way) I wonder if the Devils would need/want someone like Dan Vladar?

I don’t think Vladar is better than Allen so I’m not sure what that does for them. Either they call up Daws or go out and try to get someone better than Allen imo

I think it was Friedman but it could have been another insider I’m not sure, that said this week that Vladar doesn’t have any more value than a 5th or a 6th. At that point I think you just keep him so that Cooley can stay in the AHL since the Wranglers are doing so well

Oilers and Nucks should be a fun game too

Yeah he took it to the then team President John McDonough

With Allen they are 6-8, Markstrom they're 19-7. This is great news for the Flames, they're still pretty high in the standings so I HIGHLY doubt they drop into the bottom 10 in which case we don't get the pick, but if Markstrom is out long term, that pick could get into the teens, which would be massive for when our pick is in the teens and goes to Montreal. Currently it's at 25th overall, Florida's is at 23th overall, Flames is at 15th overall.

No time better than go on a losing streak Flames, get back into the bottom 10!

...that would also mean the Canucks (or Blues) have to win games, so...playoffs here we go!!

The East is a joke yet again this year. It would be unlikely that the Devils fall too far in the standings with Markstrom out

Barely even a bad look at each other in that game. Couple very soft teams.
