...and BUF is the only team in the league without a head coach, so JBOT has no reason to speed up the process.

Why? WSH took PIT to 7 games. They also posted a +157 5v5 SAT in just 13 games, vs +75 for NSH.

If you want someone to improve the play of the defensemen and improve shot suppression, then Todd Reirden is your guy. http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/reirden-would-be-a-perfect-fit-for-sabres-coaching-vacancy The number one issue plaguing the Sabres is shot suppression. WSH struggled in that are until Reirden showed up. IMO, Housley would be a high risk hire, he's a younger, less experienced version of Reirden.

Where's the links that show the inside of plane in real time?

I live 4hrs away and my boys are rabid hockey fans. Cheap rooms in Vegas on a weekday, and free VIP tickets for the show. We'll spend a few extra days there, hit up Top Golf, some rides, attractions etc. We were just there in February on our way to Brian Head, UT... but this time we're also hoping for a Bieber or Nickelback sighting.

Fake news! http://flightaware.com/live/fleet/XSR

They'll reveal the team at the NHL awards show next Wed in Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena. I'll be there with my boys.

Maybe Housley doesn't want the job.

June 20th is the reveal date btw.

so it's just a new third jersey? no changes to the existing home/away's? lame

I want Reirden because I think he's the best fit for Buffalo.... but if I had to guess I would say Tocchet is his guy. http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/reirden-would-be-a-perfect-fit-for-sabres-coaching-vacancy

I like this idea. Make them an RFA... if they want to become an UFA then they have to sit out a year.

welp, no royal blue.... sucks, but I'm OK with it. Getting rid of the grey piping and armpits would be an improvement.

The NFL combine is grown men, the NHL combine is high school age kids. I don't think strength tests are important for the NHL combine. I'd rather see on ice agility and speed testing... reaction time is also important. Those are things that really don't depend a whole lot on how physically mature you are. I think some junior leagues have extensive one ice testing.

That's amazing.

That's not just any "tattoo", it's Bailey, the Kings mascot. He's trying to send a message to TOR that he wants out, wants to play on the West coast so he can live his lavish fancy Euro-boy lifestyle he got accustomed to as a teenager because he was too lazy to complete his High School equivalency since money is the only motivating factor that brings him to the rink everyday.

Vote buy. I think he's the best option for next season. Offer him a 3 year deal at $4 per. Or if GMJBOT decides he's a lockerroom cancer, then do something else.

He had a hattrick or something IIRC his first game, then did squat.

The transformation begins... he's only a few small steps away from a mullet and gun collection.

+/- be damned, I love his skill set.

He does a lot of that stuff, which largely goes unnoticed because of his history obviously...

Following the release of teams’ protected players lists at 10:00 a.m. on June 18, the Golden Knights and GM George McPhee will have the opportunity to sign UFAs and unprotected RFAs within a 72-hour window. This window closes at 10:00 a.m. on June 21 when they are expected to have their roster in place. That gives some clarity... 11th: Game 6 (earliest date Finals could be over) 14th: Game 7 (if necessary) 15th: First buyout period begins 16th: Last chance to place players on waivers 17th 5p ET: Deadline to submit protected lists and trade freeze begins 18th 10a ET: Protected lists released leagewide; start of Vegas' FA signing window 20th: Adidas Hockey Sabres jersey reveal 21st 10a ET: Vegas' FA signing(and drafting) period ends 21st 8p ET: Picks announced at NHL Awards Show (8pm ET) 22nd: Trade freeze lifted 23rd: Entry Draft ...so I could see possibility of a trade frenzy the end of the Finals to the 17th, which could be the 12th-17th or 15th-17th... and then again starting on the 22nd as Vegas may look to complete deals and draft is looming.

The expansion draft "starts" on the 18th. Protected lists are due on the 17th. Their "picks" will be announced during the NHL awards on June 21st. The Cup Finals game 7 is the 14th. So that leaves the 15th-16th for deals to happen before the "draft" officially begins. And I believe there's also a league wide trade freeze starting on the 17th-20th. The rules also say they have a 48hr window before the draft to sign FAs... so is that 48hrs before the 18th? Or does that start on the 18th as well, since they announce their picks on the 21st.

why are there 2 rest days between games 4 and 5, 5 and 6, 6 and 7? Get on with it already
