Good on the NHL, his next suspension will be half a season.
What, Bettman upheld the league's original ruling?? Shocking! :lol:

Next step in the process is to go before a neutral arbitrator...
https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/cap ... educed-14/

Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson has had his 20-game suspension reduced to 14 by a neutral arbitrator and is eligible to play immediately.
Excellent.

Wilson will play tonight...

...and Karlsson is -10 on a good team, twice as bad as the next guy.

When this guy's offence dries up, and it probably won't be too long now, his terrible defensive game is really going to be ugly... and it was never good to begin with.

I don't think he's going to get a Drew Doughty type deal. Please do not go after this guy, JB.

Still not signed as well, maybe the deal is not so bad?

EK had major surgery on his ankle last year and maybe is still not fully recovered. He could be damaged goods. Stay far away!

No surprise, the Blues fire Yeo, as the team is near last place in the league with a team expected to contend.

McLellan out. Hitchcock in.

https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/oil ... -mclellan/

The former is no surprise. The latter is. Hitch said he was done when he retired from behind the Dallas bench in April.....maybe he wanted to come home and coach and just saw the writing on the wall for Todd.

It's amazing how bad the Oilers suck. Will they be the death of Hitch too?

This could go either way. The one thing about Hitch is that he’s a brilliant mind. Just not sure if the kids will tune in

hfboards Canucks and calgarypuck are panning the move to hire Hitch. The two biggest collections of retarded hockey fans on the inter webs hate it and ridicule it , so there’s a solid chance that this was a very good hire. It’s not often those two cesspools are right about anything
