Around the NHL

Speaking of rebuilding on the fly ... Yeah. Those guys. Us. Not so much.

They actually have a GM with a brain. Where is Weber to put a puck in a GM's eye when you need him?

The Jets are pretty f***ing good

Now 14-1- just the best start in NHL history, that's all. It is really incredible- I mean, they have a good roster but nothing anywhere close to this.

They are at a point now where all they have to do is play .500 the rest of the year and they will still be close to a 100 point team

We are barely one month into the season and we are SEVENTEEN points behind them. As I mentioned in a previous post, we have virtually no shot at catching them so even if we turn things around the best we can possibly hope for is probably 4th in the division.

Jets are 1st in GF/GP, 1st in GA/GP, 1st in PP, but their PK is ranked a rather pedestrian 13th. They also have the 3rd least minor penalties called on them so a lackluster PK doesnt hurt them that much. Averaging 6:24 penalty mins a game compared to our 10:48.

It's interesting, Arniel hasn't been a head coach in over a decade, but he seems to be exactly the right fit for that Jets team, whatever it is they are doing there. Messing up everybody's pre-season predictions is what they're also doing. And Hynes too.

Trade: Dante Fabbro for Matt Benning + Kaapo Kahkonen. We save $250k.

Watching the flyers game. For Veterans Day, they chose to honor a military service dog that served in Afghanistan as a bomb dog. The dog even performed the ceremonial puck drop, he picked it up off the carpet and dropped it next to the player’s stick. One of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time.

Had something similar at a minor league game where a guide dog in training dropped the puck for a game.

I'm honestly surprised we didn't take Benning.

Can we officially mark ourselves safe from that tragedy?

Well maybe not forever, but at least this time around.

Meanwhile, still wondering who the new #7D is going to be. I guess since the next game is Thursday, they can bank Cap for another day.
