He’s pretty clearly head hunting there, hitting high and exploding upward. And what exactly is the blindside rule anyway?

Wow, that Kulikov hit was blatant.

He's a figurehead and nothing more... or was anyway.

But did it mess up his hair?

Will he actually have to do something now if he catches on somewhere else?

But didn't they always say that the goalie is supposed to be the best skater on the team?😁 I was on one team in particular where our two goalies were the best and worst skaters on the team. I didn't know what to believe anymore.

I vaguely remember a missed offsides call against St Francis’ own Todd Krygier. He actually came to the school and did a talk a little after that series. I was one of a few not exactly giving the warmest of welcomes. Strangely enough, I just googled this and found a paywalled article from the Washington Post mentioning his visit to the school.

I’m looking for the elite goalies. Your suggestions for the current best, those are just laughable (I’m not laughing at you, I’m laughing at Canada). All the Levi mentions earlier, those are so ridiculously premature. He’s not a part of the discussion right now. Long story short, Canada is not producing goalies. I’d love to know why.

Which brings up an interesting question. Who is the best goalie today that came out of major junior? I’m scratching my head on this one. Edit: I’m guessing there’s a random euro I can’t think of.

It's kind of crazy how Canada can't produce any elite goalies lately.

That sounds like a double negative to me.

Just for the record, he has 7 years as an AHL head coach under his belt.

I know there's been a couple jokes here about Granato coaching the Amerks, but that's exactly where he belongs. I hope he catches on somewhere in the AHL. He should be developing guys.

I'm still hoping he returns to the team as equipment manager. Edit: I think they made the right call on McKee though. He hit a wall almost immediately after leaving.

I hate seeing all these guys I watching in and after I was in college now being established coaches.

It’s interesting seeing one guy thrown out there when they both have a stick up between the legs. I wish I could remember who i originally heard call that the separator.

Contract year

You should try spinning it with the left hand while peeling it with your teeth. Very efficient.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Housley finds his way back to a head coaching job at some point. He’s got the associate job with the rags right now. People will come calling with a little more success there. And Bylsma is racking up the wins with Coachella Valley in the AHL. Seattle hasn’t hired anyone yet, right? and right as I start googling I find this.

I turned on the original Thomas the train engine stuff for my son the other day. I was shocked to hear Carlin as the narrator.

I guess I’m on PA’s list now

You can spend all day on the Florida roster if you’re looking for former Sabres. Im just now finding out that even Asplund is a part of that team.

But you are, in fact, a blond ponytail *****, aren’t you?

I’ll believe it when I see it… especially since the link says he MIGHT move on.

I'd rather just go without names in that case.
