Really rough stretch for the Pens. Sabres actually looking great offensively so far.

the pens have played maybe 3 good periods last 6 games. rough indeed. that said, some of the cellar-dwellers like kraken and sabes have looked good for longish stretches so far this year. great for overall league competitiveness i guess.

Am enjoying the parity so far. I donโt like that alternate jersey for the Sabres, it looks a lot like the Preds design, but worse. The alternate neon green Dallas jersey is really cool though.

I knew the story reasonably well--and was watching Game 8 in my grade 6 pod--but it's hard to convey just how bizarre some of that was, especially Alan Eagleson's antics during the final game. Tretiak comes across as the nicest guy in the world; what Bobby Clarke did in Game 6 puts a damper on Canada's win.

some real horseshit from jamie benn last night
you're down 2-0 in the series and the other team scores 71 seconds into game 3. so naturally you crosscheck a guy in the face on your first shift, draw a match penalty, see your team give up a goal on the ensuing power play and go on to be shut out
and then he split without talking to the media after the game. i'm not a fan of sportswriters being all huffy because they didn't get to hear someone say 'it is what it is' but benn's the captain. that's his job. and because *he* didn't have the backbone to go out there, three of his teammates had to answer all the questions about how stupid and selfish he was. give pavelski the C this instant

The seven years to mayfield and engvall is certainly wild, although Iโm assuming the strategy is that the cap is going way up in the next few years so it will look better. I guess you canโt also underestimate the friendship between Varlamov and Sorokin. There is something to the โislander for lifeโ mentality over the past decade though. Itโs a team with very low turnover once youโve fit in.
