Kings certainly didn't waste time with PLD, who seemed uninspired  to perform for his $$.   
Big contract and then turns into a bad teammate and lacking enthusiasm and voila ----- dumped

Good for both teams I figure

Talented player when you decides to pull his head out of his ...

PLD to Washington for Kuemper

Blake moves his albatross, but the effects will be felt for a while still.

Game 7. What more could you ask for?

For one night, I will put aside my hatred of Connor McDavid and increase my already high level of hatred of Paul Maurice and be an Oilers fan. Finish. The. Story.

Craziest SCF in a good while. Game 7 should be a doozy on Monday night.

What a classy guy Paul Maurice is....interviewed immediately after winning the Stanley Cup, he said he wishes the Winnipeg Jets would win the next Stanley Cup. Very happy Coach Mo won himself the big one!!

[Pigskin]

Happy for Moe. Great year for the Panthers.

Funny. I wanted to barf.

[DCM]

Hate it. Hate the Panthers. Boo Maurice. McDavid had one job to do, smh.

Pretty solid game 7 to cap off a really entertaining SCF.

Nice to see Maurice finally hoist Lord Stanley. Gotta love that shoutout to the Jets, too.

Kudos to McDavid for a historic post-season run and Conn Smythe.

More bad news in the desert: https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/report-alex-meruelo-walking-away-from-arizona-coyotes-ownership-1.2139764

It appears that Alex Meruelo is walking away from the ownership group of the Arizona Coyotes.

Sources tell Craig Morgan and PHNX Sports that a week after the team's plan to purchase land in Phoenix fell through, Meruelo and ownership addressed Coyotes staff on Monday and told them they have no plans to pursue further arena options.

A 110-acre tract of land in North Phoenix had been targeted by Meruelo in hopes of ending the Coyotes' long-running bid to find a permanent home. When the auction for the land appraised at $68.5 million was pushed back until this summer, Meruelo followed the advice of the NHL and opted to sell the franchise to Utah Jazz owners Ryan and Ashley Smith in April.

The Smiths moved the franchise to Salt Lake City, renaming it the Utah Hockey Club. Meruelo retained the Coyotes' name, logo and trademark with plans to resurrect the team as an expansion franchise if a new arena is built within five years.

With that land auction now cancelled, the future of the team has been in doubt.
