Good to see Logan Pylon getting some ice time.

Three Stanley Cups, a Selke, a Conn Smythe, a Messier Leadership Award... Outstanding achievements. His NHL career alone should make him a first ballot HOFer.

This appears to be excellent news:

doesn’t have that multi cut explosiveness that blink did, more of a one cut north south guy. But that’s not bad at all. Also looks like he has a second gear and much better break away speed. 
His measurables between college and his pro day were 5’6 166 to 5’7 177 with a low 4.5 40. 

Thats what she said.....

An inch taller and 5 pounds lighter than Blink. It's not just size but how you use it I keep telling my wife

As we rapidly approach training camp and as I look at flights to book to make sure that I am able to attend the first game of the year, aka the season opener, as I attended the Western Final, the last game of the year in Winnipeg for 2022, all I can hear is this song in my head...
Let's go boys!!!!  2023 is our year!!!  We are going to win it all!!!

Totally pointless.  Suspended for a meaningless game.  Way to send a message NHL.

If anyone should be suspended it's Evason.... he caused all that **** at the end of the game. 

I want to see if Reaves gets a fine for the boarding that went unpenalized, or gets fined or suspended for the late staged fight. If my reading of the rule is correct (or unless they have changed it) it required an instigator penalty to enforce the rule that any fight started in the last 5 minutes of the game where an instigator gets called nets an automatic league review that could lead to a one game suspension for the player and the coach. It was clear as day what happened out there, refs blew another call. 
I am not sure that there is an automatic suspension. He gets an automatic game misconduct (which applies to last night’s game). 

He also gets an automatic 1 game suspension because they called a major.   It was atrocious reffing last night.   They let the game get out of hand.
 

“Evanson is Creed from ‘The Office’ “. 😂😂😂

I can't un-see this now LOL ...
 

Yeah, how about the Reaves hit?  Not even a phone call?  Nothing??  What happens if DeMelo was injured on the play?  Smart money is on a suspension, right?  The result shouldn’t dictate the punishment.  Just because DeMelo didn’t go awkwardly into the boards and get seriously hurt, doesn’t mean the act was any less egregious.  It’s something they apparently want out of the game, but they continually look the other way when this BS happens.  It’s a joke.

Yup, the Ref should be up for a hearing too...Interference? And how do you miss that brutal from behind hit from Reaves? Player safety huh?

I was curious about the NHLs overall attendance as a percentage and I wanted to compare it against the NBA, which I believe to be a reasonable comparison. All played in similar sized arenas. 
Do you know what I discovered? Not much difference. 
NHL: https://www.hockey-reference.com/friv/attendance.cgi
NBA: http://www.espn.com/nba/attendance
The NBA has more overall attendance (total) but the NHL regular season is not over. Two more teams in the NHL. 
Filling over 90% of the arena, which almost all teams do, is great. All but 6 NHL teams did it this year. All but two in the NBA. 
NBA is probably giving away fewer tickets than that NHL. 
 
An odd thing I discovered was that the Mullet arena was packed on every game? Really? Feels like some trickery their from the Yotes.

Wish we would of picked him up, they got him for a 4th rounder, i don't understand Chevy he has played the game,intimidation is still part of Pro hockey.  Wish we had a couple of nasty,dirty players on our team....

who would we sit to give that bum a spot on the bench?  I hear you though.
