Around the NHL 2024/25

Looks like Ovi is going to miss some time with a fractured fibula.

Seems to be a pretty optimistic timeline for a fracture at his age.

As I said earlier he is a tough SOB but a month and a half is really optimistic, but if anyone can come back that soon he seems like the guy to do it.

Fibula isn't weight bearing. Depending on the severity of the fracture, I don't think 6 weeks is crazy

Its not like he's going to need to do any conditioning before he comes back with the way he plays lol

Knee surgery for Hurricanes's goalie Andersen

PLD up to 2 goals on the season. $8.5M well spent, I say.

That wasn't much of a collision. Ovi is so old his bones are getting brittle.

Is Knies confirmed out for any time? still getting eval'd?

 

[PhilJets]

Did not know the Capitals are top team in the league.

Vodka heals everything. Hic.

Have to say, I really don't want to meet Minnesota in the playoffs. They are very good and kind of flying under the radar.

He can play the circle on the power play?

Not sure why Flour didn't just butterfly with the stick against the 5hole and let it roll into his padding. It happened pretty quick but there wasn't an Oiler coming in on him directly. Weird choice for such a seasoned goaltender, I guess nobody is immune from having a hearty brain fart once in a while. Too bad it didn't cost the Wild in the end. They're hanging around like a bad stench.

Kaprizov with 34 points in 19 games leading the league in scoring having an insane start to his season and Gustavsson with the .926 save % is the top goalie in the league currently.

How does that work? Every other team in the league gets the same cap increase.

It will be a great windfall for all good to better players who hit UFA this year. Ehlers price has gone up. It is still about how badly Jets want him and how interested he is in staying.

I think it will be a bit more of an advantage to teams like Toronto and Edmonton that are really top heavy and have their best players locked up lock term. Less so for Edmonton since McD will be signing his deal with the looming $100 million cap. I assume his contract will be in the 16% of cap.

Kaprizov in Minnesota will be getting paid huge my guess is in the $14 million AAV range.

Minnesota is our team. We beat them always.
