The slash happened right in front of him and then he is so thin-skinned that he has to call Bedard for unsportsmanlike conduct. He blew it and he had to hide his embarrassment. Why doesn’t the NHL protect players’ heads? The NFL goes out of its way to do it. Twice in the last two games! The NHL will never be anything more than a junior league. Their officiating is crap!

I’ve been saying for years, the NHL will change when they lose a lawsuit. They don’t have NFL money where the commissioner makes $50M a year. Last night’s loss will be worth 5 extra wins this season. They just learned the hard way hockey is a 3 period game.

I love, for the most part, how this team is playing. One downer I will bring up is we are still in the middle of a rebuild. This is going to be interesting for KD if he goes out and gets another piece or holds pat. I think he will stay status quo as he has too many variables on what he has.

We still get hemmed in and outshot by large margins. But it is much better than the last couple years. Our great cup teams Crawford would get bored facing about 20 shots a game because the puck was always at the other end. That is our next big step to climb.

I believe he was 2nd only behind Vlasic.

I think the Kings only have 6 regulation wins,and have played 13 games on the road and only 7 at home!
Montreal and San Jose – both doing well in the standings,but both have a lot of OT wins.

I hate 3 on 3 and the shootout. Can’t say what would be better but wouldn’t want anything over a 10 min. OT.

Anybody else think Bedard got tripped before his empty netter?

[Dan Maloneys left hook]

I want to see the Nazar and Moore off to the races play 5 times a game.

That means the current roster goes to 6 defensemen.
Any injury (Murphy’s chronic groin problem is due to make an appearance) would drop them to 5 current guys.
That tells me Crevier is traded *only* if the team is 100.00000% certain that one of KK, EDM, Allan can, at minimum,
replace what Crevier is giving the Hawks so far this year.
Also: Crevier is a right shot, the other 3 are all left shot.

<p class=”userway-s15-active” data-userway-s15-styled=”true” style=”font-family: UDF, serif !important; transition: all;”>Are those guys ready?
I’ve checked around, it seems that all 3 are at least “doing well” in RFD this season.
Does anyone here watch a lot of RFD games? Interested in hearing about their performance.
(cough new Frenchy article cough)

<p class=”userway-s15-active” data-userway-s15-styled=”true” style=”font-family: UDF, serif !important; transition: all;”>🤘

We’ll be sorry for years if we trade the big guy. He’s decent defensively, nobody F’s with him and his right shot is vicious.

I am also 75.Should I start thinking about my mortality?

We were assigned to the same school in 1972.

Although I am the guy who still wants to win one more lottery, i thing there will soon reach a high water mark in the standings and then level of in one of the 18 slots the teams not going to Lord Stanley’s Cup slot into…

I think about my immortality every time I pay the life insurance premium.

Articles out there on Chicago moving Crevier. If we do we won’t just give him away. I think Murphy is more likely to be moved. I wonder how many scouts are watching Rockford games?

Knight continues to be the team MVP. As of right now, we have the highest SV% in the NHL, second best shooting% and you have to think that will course correct a bit more. NJ is just a deeper and more skilled overall team at this point.

I think we have some young guys who are simply above average shooters. Hopefully it holds.

Really enjoy his brand of hockey but i got a feeling if things continue the way they are we will hold on to him till the end of the season unless someone actually offers a 2027 1st round pick which i doubt.

He’s still got jump. I wonder if 2x$3.5 would get it done?

[Dan Maloneys left hook]

How’d we ever trade for Mik if he has a 12 team no trade list?

The bridge deal is getting higher and longer. That’s a good thing.
