Looks like the Bruins are signing Zadorov and Lindholm from Vancouver. We get our center and a solid piece to add to the backend.

Would still love to see the B’s add another scoring threat to the top 6. Not sure what’s left over after the signings from this morning. Wouldn’t hate Sean Monahan from the Jets.

And he’s gone to Columbus. 

Kraken opened the checkbook and are spending like a drunken congressman:

1.  7/$44M for Chandler Stephenson

2.  7/$50M for Brandon Montour

IMO, Lindholm is the best signing of the day.

It was a crucial signing for Boston. Finally have a 1C and can move Zacha to his actual position of LW. Still think they need one more scoring threat on the second line. 
On another note, it sounds like there’s more bullshit getting in the way of an extension with Swayman. Not sure what the issue is but it’s absolutely necessary that the Bruins get this done quickly.

Holy fucking shit. I miss hockey. October needs to get here quickly. Go B’s!! Fuck the Leafs and double fuck the Habs.

not a surprising breakdown from the NHL, though I didn't think the MLB ticket sales as portion of revenue would be quite that high.

 

mlb is also the most balanced. the most revealing stat is how much NFL relies on tv contracts. that's pretty nuts

Oh man did St Louis deliver today on two of my favorite things: Offer sheets and levels of pettiness that are off the scale.

The two year deals on this are just magnificent since that really puts a squeeze on Edmonton with Drai and McDavid up for contract renewals this coming offseason. Doug Armstrong sticking it to Stan Bowman

good, fuck Stan Bowman. I hope the oil go down in flames due to that hire. I would probably renounce my fandom if the Stars made a similar hire

The only thing I'm confident about with the Jets this year, is that they'll let me down. But I still love 'em.

Love it. Fuck all of the Canadian teams and their miserable fans.

Is Laine a bad dude?

Portzline said that veteran players had a meeting a few years ago. He says, "I also think back to a meeting with the veteran players, I think it was maybe after the 19-20 season (believe it was 20-21 he meant), and if my recollection is right it was Cam, it was Seth Jones, it was Werenski, it was Foligno for sure, maybe Gus Nyquist. What do we need to do here to make this thing work? You guys know what a good room is like, you've seen it. And the players, they have a hard time doing this sometimes, and you understand why, basically came back with "You gotta get Laine and Merzlikins out of here." That's steps one and two. The organization heard that and said, "You know what let's get rid of the people who said that," not the people that they mentioned. And look who all's gone."

If there’s any team in the NHL that deserves to be relegated, it’s Columbus. They are a complete joke of a franchise. 

what? Johnny Hockey is gonna carry them over the line. You wait and see!

Saw the rumors last night but before it was confirmed. Fucking horrible. 

His sister is was supposed to get married today in Philly. Just a fucking awful situation. 

Man what a gut punch for that family.  He and his brother both gone the night before their sister's wedding.

Yeah, I had read that as well this morning. Just terrible all around.

Fuck, I remember this game, and that winter he led the US to gold in the World Juniors.

I actually have his Calgary jersey and put it on this morning when I took the dog for a walk.  

Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck.

It’s a shame the drunk driver that killed him and his brother can’t be crossed off. But life doesn’t work that way. This is a horrible situation for his family. Hope the loser drunk driver suffers the rest of his life. 

Goddamn.  I don’t know shit about hockey but this is about the worst case scenario for a family.  I don’t know who to feel worse for - his and his brother’s wives, or his and his brother’s parents.  Two kids gone in a second, the night before their daughter’s wedding?  Unfathomable.  RIP and I hope somehow the family can find peace. But this is about as bad as it gets.  

Wow! Brings back memories of the Pelle Lindberg story......first thing in the morning on ESPN.......another New Jersey accident. 

God damn. This is awful. I followed the Flames for a season when my wife was trying to get into hockey and he was a lot of fun to watch. 

Guess the events of the past week overshadowed the news of the Draitsaitl extension (for good reason). 
 

8-years, $112MM ($14MM AAV). Makes me wonder where McJesus will land. Guess that will depend on what the new cap is for 2026-2027 season. 

gonna be top heavy for a looong time. that and the nurse contract I don't see how they'll be competitive beyond their top line. guess we'll see (or won't)

NHL preseason kicks off next Saturday. It’s actually been refreshing not having Sabres/Red Wings/Senators hype shoved down our throats by the NHL media during this offseason. I demand those three teams must win a playoff series each before we acknowledge their presence.
