NHL 2024/2025


The vast majority of hockey fans around the world don't have a clue about Ovi's relationship with Putin, so they will obviously only remember him for what he did on the ice.

Whatever propaganda Putin has him doing isn't exactly on prime time tv all across Europe so I'd say if your average hockey fan did see him say anything about politics it was when he was pestered with questions about Russia invading Ukraine by the US media and he said he didn't want a war, and that's about it.
 
Who gives a feck about Ovechkin and Putin.

The leafs are an absolute wagon.
 
Outside of injuries I think that the Habs will be too close to .500. So would it be a reasonable to splurge on a bonafide C2 and put Laine in an actually good 5v5 context?
 
@WeePat do you have an opinion on resign or trade Jake Evans?

I'm on the fence, I see good points in both cases. I would like to see Kent trade for an established 1C/2C and in an ideal world Beck would be called up to be 3C or 4C just based on his FO abilities, if the trading partner wants picks Evans could bring one or two picks on top of one of the 2025 firsts or there is also the scenario where Beck is the preferred option for the other team in which cases extending Evans becomes the best option.
 
What happened to RA on Spittin Chiclets? I know he got shunned by the Panthers when they win the Stanley Cup and then he took a leave of absence but what actually happened?
 
Where do you stand on the Hutson vs Celebrini, Calder race?
