It's getting funny hearing how we have to worry about Hutson when droves of bigger players are dropping like flies.

IQ is even more efficient than size to avoid injuries.

Unfortunately a late check is a late check, if someone does a low-IQ play against you there's little you can do. Laine could've not glided into traffic but he wasn't anticipating a dumbass scrub to stick his knee out.

I expect the league is going to put a few new rules in to regulate the preseason, starting next year. I'd go full '' any hit with a clear intent to injure is an automatic preseason is over for you plus automatic 5 game suspension to start the season '', something pretty drastic.

AHL jambroni won't give a shit and the are mostly the ones who do the cheap shots.

I'd also put a limit to how long people with under a certain number of NHL games can still be at camp, plus fewer preseason games in general. There are ways to at least limit the jabronies running around.

Which is what should be done. Althought, It thinking reducing pre-season to 4 games for all would force teams to use their jambroni less. I don't like a 84 games season, because I feel 82 is already too much on the player's body, but limiting pre-season to 4 games, yes please.

There are direct flights from Montreal to Denver, Dallas, SLC, NY, and many other cities. Why we have to be subjected to BS games against 2 teams that we loathe...

Because Ottawa needs the money. In pre-season, gate revenues are split between both teams, so everyone wants to play the Habs and save money on gas.

Not bad, but still no real deterrent to play AHL/ECHL players with guidance to go and make a name for themselves against NHL top 6'ers.

Transferring the cap hit of the player taken out by a dirty play to the offending team until they clear LTIR would be a nice solution ;-)

Ok but why do we care about what OTT wants (or pre-season revenues)
