It's a shame Quinn won't be able to make his debut with Rochester tomorrow being in Covid protocol. Practice is fine and Dandy, but nothing like game exposure.

did you watch the world juniors? He looked mediocre there. No need to have him spend any more time here than he needs. I suspect he'll (understandably) look overwhelmed down there as well.

The NHL proves again it is a 3rd rate sports league.

5 teams shut down now.

Any talk of MAF getting traded may take a little turn and move Lehner back in play. MAF is making a case for himself and if they can’t move him maybe Robin hits the block and will make his way back to Buffalo.

And Okposo has looked. Would still have liked to see Quinn get his feet wet, not like he's been playing games the last month.

Even with their dumbpoop division format which from jump street was all about saving the owners money on travel and keeping the players from having to live in a bubble (oh, the horror), they still couldn't make it work.

So what did we get?

A horrible format and an inept league that can barely keep the car on the road. God, the NHL sucks

I am all for just about anyone other than 21 being in the lineup.... just not Quinn.
He is years away from being ready - there is no reason to toss him out there.

Why wasn't the league doing this already?

This is the team that employed Ted Nolan in two separate centuries and traded for Jimmy Vesey twice

Nobody knows that, and a game or 2 would not hurt him. He would find out what the NHL is all about.

Those air purifiers cost like $200 each. Do you think the owners want to spend that kind of money? That's upwards of $12,000 to equip each of the 32 arenas with 2


We're going to need more of the awful in-game pop up ads to pay for that

I have another idea for revenue for the NHL:

Instead of intermission player interviews centering on the game, ask them about sponsors.

"What would you say is the most impressive thing about mass mutual insurance"

"Well I'd have to say it's their customer-centric approach"

"Thanks, Sam. Good luck in the Dunn Tire period (formerly known as the 3rd period"

His Sv% is way down, maybe his "value" has decreased to make it a good time to buy.
He has shown he can play in this league for sure.

Would he actually consider coming back to buffalo though, he seemed to have burned that bridge...he can control that with his M-NTC

I can't wait to hear Lou on the Instigators today. They had Gretzky a few years ago. By far and away the best radio show on WGR. I don't agree with the analysis all the time, but between Andrew, Marty, and Riv you get varied ideas about the game, and with the stories they can tell, it's almost always a good listen. Some of Matt Barnaby's stories have been hilarious.
