Crosby is about to carry the pens back into no man’s land, I love it!

This is the perfect scenario. Let them earn like the 12th pick. Don't give the NHL an excuse to give them Hagens.

Devils schedule is truly... interesting.

They have now played 15 games already, 4 more than Caps and Rangers and 5 more than 'Canes.

They play 4 games this week and 3 games next week. Infact they play their game 21 before Rangers reach 16 games.

Only noticing this really as in my mind i thought Devils were one of the best teams in the league when in reality if you sort it by point % they are closer to Blue Jackets than any of Rangers/Caps/Canes.

Anyways big week for divisional match-up's. Canes have Flyers and Pens. Isles have Devils and Pens. Caps play Pens. Isles also have a long road-trip coming up afterwards and with Barzal and Pelech out for over a month, they could be out of the Playoff hunt early.

Hagens is going to the Islanders. He grew up there as an Isles fan. The NHL will make new pajama boy replace old pajama boy.

As Tavares himself pointed out - somewhat bizarrely - in the Prime hockey series that aired recently: "They weren't even pyjamas - they were bedsheets"

It was so weird how he felt he had to explain it. Like it made it somehow way less gay because he wasn't wearing Maple Leaf PJ's - just the sheets and bedspread.

Put on the blues game for gambling purposes

What a scary scene the player takes the puck to the neck skates around for a shift and almost faints, and looks almost motionless on the bench. They canceled the rest of the period.

It's kind of baffling we have Leonard and they have Michkov.

If they wanted a defensively responsible tough hard working guy why didn't they just take him???

A co-worker who is a hard core flyers fan I told him I was super surprised that the flyers took Mitchkov over Leonard (who historically reallly fits their profile) but he was super stoked about the Russian.

 

[Ridley Simon]

Yeah. Flyers aren’t known for drafting a lot of Russians. So that was wild.

New regime and all

The Pens are one win away from no mans land - Out of the playoffs and out of the lottery. What a lovely thought.
