Josh Ho-Sang is with #Leafs on a PTO, but said he’d play anywhere within the organization:“I’d start in the ECHL. I don't have a preference. I'm not entitled by any means. I don't think I deserve anything.”

Not sure if you did that on purpose, but he actually has a LONG history of getting absolutely humiliated by McDavid's speed, he even has joked about it:

OEL is terrible at defending the rush and the rest of Vancouver D struggled with it last season. It’s going to be a long season.

Old Man Jagr in Columbus sounds lit. Can he play center as well as he plays RW?

This would be brutal for the Rangers.

Per @vzmercogliano, an extension for Mika Zibanejad in the 7–8 year range, "likely in the 8-9 range, maybe slightly over 9," may happen in "the next few weeks." #NYR ➡️ https://t.co/k3YdfBkRWR

I support Joel 100%, I know what he said was a little sketchy, but I’m sure he has his reasons.

Happy wife happy life as they say.
