Don’t know why, but I just had a hankering for some glow bowling. 

Funny I was thinking about either that or skating at Wheelies

Who will be the first to include LED strips in their uniforms?

I’ve not heard of this before..

 

Good....reading about the **** that kid did. Just gross. No place for him. I can't remember which team it was....but apparently had "DND - Under Any Circumstances" next to his name on their draft list. 

So to recap Arizona’s 2020 draft, they had traded their 1st found pick to New Jersey for Taylor Hall, who has now left for Buffalo. Their 2nd round pick was forfeited due to violating the league policy on testing Junior prospects outside of accepted time frames. They had traded their 3rd round pick to acquire Carl Soderberg, who is now an unrestricted free agent, and they just renounced their 4th round pick because of his conviction for bullying. 
And their GM quit just before the playoffs this year.

so what happens if they do, this is the first I have ever seen something like this happen. Will Arizona go without a first round draft pick then?

It was their fourth round pick but their first pick of the draft as noted by @TrueBlue4ever.

It just means they do not hold his rights any more and any team can sign him as a free agent (I think) or draft him next year.

Not saying you specifically Frosty, but why do so many bash Wheeler for his age and declining skills but praise signing an older Stastny and say we should sign guys like this?

Hope the kid likes Russia

I love Wheels. Did he lose a step this past season. Yes he did but I still liked him more as #1 RW then Laine. This year...who knows.

Stastny or Soderberg have similar stats all im saying.

And that led to one of the worst contracts ever.

Except for the fact that his 12-year contract was signed on Sep. 9, 2009, several months before the 2010 Olympics. (https://www.nhl.com/news/luongo-signs-12-year-contract-extension-with-vancouver-canucks/c-497545)

Why not just play a 48 game season? The NHL has a lot of experience with that number. 

Beginning to think this is all part of a plan to prevent Ovi from breaking Wayners goal record.

ESPN tries to hockey, does mediocre job: https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/30374110/the-best-worst-value-contracts-every-nhl-team

Some of these make sense but many do not.

I still can't believe Calgary traded for Lucic.... that is the worst contract in the league and they traded for it.
