just about everyone is in town even though training camp doesn't officially start for three weeks, and with the start of informal practices I think it's time to say the off season is over....

since these aren't official team practices the schedule isn't posted on the website, does anyone have any information on when these practices are?

The expansion draft for Seattle is in June. If it were me, I'd leave Dylan unprotected, but then I never would've agreed to that contract to begin with..

and whoever came up with this list just proved the NHL network does not drug test its employees...

LOL, Alta!
We all know that for Carlson to get that ranking, they’ve simply revamped the criteria!
One of the new applied factors is THC%, per liter of blood! It counts as 15% of the total ranking score for defenseman now!🤣🤣
Without this factor, Carlson ranks 116th, among current NHL defenseman.😁
His “highest-in-NHL”, THC intake ranking, helps propel him to his current standing, at #6!!😆
At seasons end, in 2020, the criteria for best D-man ranking will allow THC% to count for 30% of total calculated score. This will easily elevate Carlsons ranking to #1.
The NHL, anticipating Carlson to be the Norris trophy recipient, will then vote to change the trophy’s name!!
Thusly, our beloved, yet lackadaisical, defenseman, will be the recipient of the NHL’s, newly named, best defenseman award!!......The “Norris/Chyme-bud” Trophy!! 🏆😂😂
Finally. his acceptance speech will include thanking the Caps organization for investing in, and creating a new piece of workout equipment, at practice, specifically designed for him, that allowed him to blossom into the defenseman that helped him to win the award!!....
A cardio-elliptical machine, with a new TokeMaster/Inhaler attachment!!!😆🤪🤣😂
You go get ‘em, Carly!!!!!
