They're going to attempt to move Winnipeg before they move Arizona, aren't they?
Not until the True North decides they need a new building and can’t get it, or they start losing an obscene amount of money. They’ve got deeper pockets than people think.

A good way to illustrate how great he was....Lindros' best and most productive season as a Flyer was 95-96 when he had 115 points in 73 games. He was a f***ing monster. Lemieux had 45 more points in 3 less games.
But he was playing against 1995 NHLers so…

Based on my formula, that’s equivalent to like 15 points in the current NHL.

What's the deal with Alex Barré-Boulet? Is he just a tweener?
He has the distinction of being an ‘original Kraken’ who never got to play a home game. Tampa claimed him back after 2 games.

At least Nathan Bastian lasted a few weeks before getting claimed back, but the price was getting his ass kicked by Nate Thompson.

I’m surprised mouthguards are barely worn in the NHL when in rugby they are mandatory and they even brought in ones with sensors this year that are supposed to indicate when someone has suffered head trauma that needs to be checked by a doctor.

If I see a hockey player with a mouthguard they are usually chewing on it.

Hockey players even at the non-pro levels cannot wait to strip down as much equipment as possible.

Hell even in roller hockey where there’s less equipment from a general sense compared to ice hockey. They’ll strip elbow pads for example.

I’m not a dentist or anything but you probably should give that guy more ice time.


It’s the most dysfunctional team without question, management and coaching (related). With another possible lottery pick on the way, that team shouldn’t be the dumpster fire it is, even accounting for injury. You know it’s bad when I’d more so trust the Flyers to develop Kent Johnson.

Was that the guy they nearly chased back to the KHL earlier this year? I’ve lost track of all the f***ery from that organization.
