NHL Discussion (Other than Jets)

WOW, the NHL gave it to Vegas and coach Torts

Apparently after Vegas eliminated the Ducks their dressing room wasn't made available to the media.
Then Torts would not make himself available to the media in the Press Room, or whatever the proper name is.

So the NHL fined Torts $100K and they penalized Vegas their 2nd Round draft spot. Supposedly Vegas and Torts had been warned several times of the importance of protocol with media

Good on the league for stepping in and cracking them a good one. Vegas is such a douche organization, second round pick will sting for a while!!

The Canucks have fired coach Foote and 3 assistants

I don't follow the Canucks, but curious , did the GM get sacked??? He's the one who created this pitiful roster!! The good Lord himself couldn't turn that team around.

GM was sacked and the Canucks have a new one

Entertainment, but for me, sadly the Avs didn't hold on.

How sad. CTE takes another life needlessly.

Hmm..more or less likely that they draft his son now.?

Blue Jackets D Weresnki wins the Norris Trophy

Think it would be a tough call to draft a son of your "new" Head Coach, as your first pick.

Really do believe that Werenski getting the Norris was terrific

It will depend on what the Canucks have a bigger need for. D-men, it's Verhoff or Smit. If it's a forward (C), it's Malhotra.

Red Wings F Larkin requests trade

A pretty big deal if the rumours are accurate.
