Why is the league opener at 5PM when it is a weeknight?  The NHL can never get out of its own way.

Is that not to allow for the late game to start early as well? They want people watching all 3 games.

Besides, do you really want to watch Florida raise their banner?

First hot take of the new season

Tyler Bertuzzi currently leading the NHL in points ...

Edit: They changed the scoring now Bertuzzi, Nazar, and Teravainen all have 2 pts each.

Chicago might be fortunate (and Florida might be getting even more injured) but the one thing I'm noticing is Bedard might be coming into his own now. Could be a breakout year. Knight also looks pretty good so maybe no McKenna for Chicago.

Kyle Connor is extending in Winnepeg 12 million AAV on a long term deal, reported by EF. no confirmation of years yet 

 

this should mean Tuch can’t eclipse 10 per season as Connor is a much better player

Rags looked like they either don't grasp Sullivan's system yet or want no part of it. All the experts predicting their resurgence might have it wrong. Too early to say obviously but they looked bad.

They’ll straighten it out against the Sabres.
