That's actually surprising.

Pretty much all the other major Canadian cities have a Chipotle.

Gotta love all star games. You want to see players that don’t play with each?

Coaches - Best I can do is Rantanen with Mackinnnon and Makar. Mcdavid with Drai. Horvat with Pettersson.

If Nazar does become something I will thank Vancouver for overvaluing J.T. Miller or maybe Lou for nixing the trade, whatever happened there.

What does HF Hawks think about the salary cap? Lots of discussion about it on this website. Some want it gone completely, some think we should have a luxury tax or franchise player tag, some want to keep it as is.

There’s also debate that it doesn’t create parity, but merely limits costs for owners.

Limiting costs is the sole reason it exists, no matter how the NHL frames it. As such, it’ll never go away.

But it’s our advantage right now for the cap to remain strict and with limited growth so that we can weaponize it in trades to get additional assets. It’s absolutely an advantage for a smart team willing to spend while on the rebuild.

Might just as well debate the blue sky, and whether or not people would prefer a different color.

There's a salary cap in the NHL, and it's never going away.

The owners gave up a year of profits to get cost certainty. They're not giving that up anytime soon.

Is it just me or is this a real asshole answer here?

So Vrana having issues we all know ended up in AHL after being reinstated from NHL assistance program.

After struggling at start of AHL stint he now heating up and playing well in AHL from all reviews and when reporter asked about his recent strong play the Wings coach gave this answer

First 8 games in GR
1 assist and -6

Last 7 games in GR
6 goals + 2 assists and a +5

Its clear Wings want to move on and in offseason will, but this seemed unnecessary to me. He could have given a PR or simple positive response "We hope he continues to find his game", etc, etc
