Mickstix:
Relocated Arizona Coyotes to Utah Hockey Club..  Trap game much?  :-\




Bored thoughts until gametime. So, they're just a relocated team.. But how did Seattle Kraken come about? I don't remember the NHL fleecing a player from each team (like they did for Vegas) for them?  :huh: Or where they just a relocated/rebranded team too?

alta:
Seattle was formed exactly like Vegas was. Teams learned how to protect their players better for the Seattle draft.

Mickstix:
I don't even remember it? Who'd they take from us? How did teams protect better? So many questions...  :snicker:

richkrt99:
A win tonight will propel the Caps over NJ and Carolina into 1st place in the division and lead in the entire east - putting them 2nd in all the NHL behind only Winnipeg.
Devils and Canes both idle tonight, and face each other tomorrow, so our Division lead will be short lived, but DAMN, Caps are 4th in the NHL at the moment and move into 2nd with a win.  Oh damn, Winnipeg lost 2 in a row? 
WTF is happening?  someone pinch me.
