NHL Discussion (Other than Jets)

Montreal picks up Hoffman for 3 years @ 4.5M AAV.  Savard for 4 years @ 3.5 AAV.

They needed scoring and another shutdown D.

Jets get Dillon from Caps for 2 picks in successive years, the Caps don't protect goalie Vanecek & lose him to Seattle in their Draft
Yesterday the Caps gave up next year 2nd rd pick, that they just got from the Jets, to get Vanecek back ..... win for both teams

Terrific goalie Grubauer is lost by the Avs to the Kraken in a late UFA move yesterday, without a top goalie the Avs have to give up big to get Kuemper from the Coyotes
definitely a win for the Coyotes & Seattle while a wait & see for the Avs

caught on SportsNet that Fleury has told Chicago that he will report to the team

Lehner, the goalie for Vegas, has certainly put some awkward comments on social media about the Flyers, Buffalo & coach Vigneault

Duncan Keith not happy about having to taking the vaccine.

He was brought in for his "leadership qualities"... sounds like this is another boondoggle...  how does Edmonton manage to be so bad at this?

Looks like Montreal will start the year a little short handed on the backend.

Price is still out and will not be in the lineup for the season opener.

Weber is out for the year.

Edmundson is out and will not make it back for the season opener.

Niku has a concussion, no that he is one of there top six.

Montreal may start Kulak, Romanov, Guhle, Savard, Chiarot, and Petry, with Wideman as there 7th D -man.

Carey Price granted a leave of absence.

Carey Price granted a leave of absence.

kinda weird. First Drouin now Price must be stressful playing on Montreal? Maybe a family issue with Price was the way I read it.

[Pigskin]

Drouin had problems with Anxiety and Insomnia.

Carey's wife Angela siting Mental Health on her Instagram post.

How much more trouble could Evander Kane get into. As if he wasn't in enough hot water, now for a fake vaccine card.
