January 5, 20232 yr Author 2023 Winter Classic is the most watched NHL regular-season game of all time on US cable TV, with an average of 1.8 million viewers. Great to hear for a sport that is seriously underrated in the States.

January 15, 20232 yr Kraken become the first team in NHL history to go 7-0 on a road trip (probably not a lot of those, but still...). 🦑
January 17, 20232 yr Smart dude. Quote Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Robin Lehner and his wife have filed for bankruptcy in Nevada, citing up to $50 million in debts to dozens of creditors. The Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing offers a glimpse into the couple's financial problems, including money owed to no fewer than 50 people and companies, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. They filed for bankruptcy Dec. 30, months after a Wisconsin company sued Lehner for $4 million, claiming the NHL player and his father failed to make any payments last year on a business loan. Both Lehner and his father, Michael, are listed as principal members in a Nevada business license filing for Solarcode, a limited liability corporation doing business in multiple states, including Nevada and Arizona. Solarcode in January 2022 agreed to a four-year repayment plan with Eclipse Service but missed its first five payments, leading the Wisconsin company in late June 2022 to sue in U.S. District Court in Milwaukee. An attorney for Lehner did not immediately respond Monday to a request for comment from The Associated Press. Lehner's debts also included missed payments for a collection of rare snakes he purchased for $1.2 million in 2017, according to the bankruptcy filing. Lehner keeps the snakes at his reptile farm in Plato, Missouri. He and his wife, Donya, estimate their assets are worth up to $10 million. Lehner, 31, signed a five-year, $25 million contract with the Knights in 2020, but the Swedish hockey player has spent the 2022-23 season recovering from hip surgery.
January 17, 20232 yr Author The Flyers fucking suck. Maybe teams will finally open their eyes to the fact that Torts is outdated as fuck.
January 27, 20232 yr Watched a good bit of Bos/TB last night. If they end up in a series together that's likely to be an interesting watch. Matthews out for a while.
January 30, 20232 yr Quote Hockey Hall of Famer Bobby Hull, a 12-time All-Star and two-time Hart Trophy winner, has died, the Chicago Blackhawks announced Monday. He was 84. https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/35557785/hall-famer-bobby-hull-golden-jet-dies-age-84
January 31, 20232 yr RIP to Bobby Hull, my late father's favorite Blackhawks player growing up in Chicago in the 1950's. Rumor has it his time as player-coach in Winnipeg rubbed off a little on Paul Newman for "Slapshot." Got to hang with Bret a few years back at SXSW and stories about his father were fantastic. A legend, RIP #9.

February 15, 20232 yr Author Great OT winner for the B’s last night in Dallas. Pastrnak just 3 goals behind McDavid for second most in the NHL. Dude is really earning that new contract. Hope they get it finalized soon.
February 20, 20232 yr Author O’Reilly on the Leafs seems like a hat on a hat. This team still struggles defensively, physically, and in net. Not sure they’ll ever learn. Most likely to get Tampa in the first round again which would go just like last year. Fuck the Leafs and that entire fan base.
February 25, 20232 yr Trade deadline starting to heat up. Kane and Meier both sitting out tonight. Betting there will be others

February 28, 20232 yr Author I think we’ll see Kane traded to the Rangers by end of today Edited February 28, 20232 yr by Vertuzzi
March 1, 20232 yr jesus hell, Toronto sure went out of their way to lose in the 1st round spectacularly this year.

March 14, 20232 yr Just dropping in to opine the Big City Green live animation of NYR-WAS on Disney Channel is hilarious. Unlike the NFL/Nick project, this contains zero actual footage from the game, but the puck and players are tracked exactly by location. Big yellow ape is in net for WAS, and a grandmother at goalie for NYR. Other little side attractions too. Based on a few minutes, this is way more entertaining than casually having a game on you don't care much about
March 15, 20232 yr Author Will have to check that out. They kept mentioning it during the game but I was so unaware of what it was.

March 16, 20232 yr Found it. Sarah Nurse. Also, TNT really has the intermission thing going on for hockey and basketball. Always entertaining.

The wheelchair was at the top of the steps because the restroom is downstairs and the girl had to be carried down. Then found her chair smashed when she came out.

March 21, 20232 yr Author Watching the Oilers play last night was hilarious. This team has absolutely no chance of winning the West with their awful defense and goaltending. Top end talent will carry them past the first round, and maybe even the second round, but I just don’t see them making it any further than they did last year.
March 22, 20232 yr Avs are getting hot. 6 straight wins. Now if they can just get healthy before the playoffs.

The west is wide open this year so wouldn’t be surprised to see them win the conference again. As far as defending, I think they have a tough task ahead. Scoring depth has been a huge problem for them after losing Kadri and Burakovsky, though I do love the addition of Denis Malgin. Injuries have plagued them all season long, and having no clear return date for Landeskog and Manson will be huge question marks as the playoffs begin.

Injuries have plagued them all season long, and having no clear return date for Landeskog and Manson will be huge question marks as the playoffs begin. Yeah, Landy being out all year has been a real kick in the nuts. No idea if he'll be back at all this year, but at this point I'd lean towards no (although he did skate in a non contact jersey yesterday). They're starting to get the scoring going again, which is what won them the cup last year, although losing Kadri (mostly) and Burakovsky (to a lesser extent) does still sting. Malgin and Rodrigues were really good pickups for them.
