Wonder if Ulmark would get the UPL treatment for getting cleanly beat glove side 2x in regulation and once in the shootout?

Florida waived Asplund.
Dude took a heavy nose dive.

He stopped doing what made him successful two seasons ago. The drop between checking line guy and AHL guy isn't that far.

I'm sure some overrated him... but he was solid when he first came up especially defensively

Never saw nothin that had me interested. Like a downy pillow when you packin camping supplies. Unnecessary. A Swiss Army knife for fruit loops. Best of luck to him.

People excused Eichel because he had so many coaches. Not sure why lessor skilled players don't get the same grace. Going from Taylor to Housely to Krueger probably derailed a few players development.

Interesting idea, but I don't think whip around coverage works as well here. At least in the NFL play isn't continuous, making it easier to flip between games when the teams are huddling up, and you have more warning when a team might score since you can see where they are on the field. Maybe you show every time a team goes on a PP? But there's going to be a lot of "moments ago, this happened in this other game."
Plus it's ESPN, so I'm sure they'll find a way to ruin the whole experience, like Messier talking the whole time and barely having any actual hockey televised.

They already have. Buccigross is the one commentating it, the guys job is play by play and he talks during the play like he's the color commentator while forcing in hockey lingo from 15 years ago. It's absolutely maddening.

I dunno. I'm intrigued and will certainly give it a go. Bucci might not be the best PbP guy..........but I could see him doing well in the Hanson-like role where he doesn't have to do PbP all the time and just kind of oversee things.
It's also ESPN and they're known for doing dumb things so.....
Looks like it won't be on ESPN+.

I ditched cable TV years ago. Last season I had to subscribe to the Disney+ streaming package to get ESPN+, and it's NHL coverage.
When I login to ESPN+, there is programming available from other ESPN channels, but only if you provide your cable subscription credentials.
Is that how you get them?
