Technically that's not incorrect. Both Shestyorkin and Shesterkin are English ways of writing his name. Like Fedor or Fyodor Svechkov.

Am I wrong here, but what is Lomberg supposed to do 🤷‍♂️

You’re not wrong but also, that’s a penalty either way, wether it’s intentional or not, it’s still a penalty since it’s a dangerous collision

tears of joy tears of joy It feels like it started when the Canes posted the Kotkaniemi $20 signing bonus with the "We don't forget" caption, now everybody else is following suit
Also, "WE TAKE IT BACK YOU NERDS...IN YOUR FACE" tears of joy What grade are these people in


They're probably young adults since they’re “connected to this day and age’s social media ways”

So, Carolina was the last undefeated team, Arizona was the last winless team and Florida is currently the last team without a regulation loss. Fun fact, Dallas has 4 wins, none of them in regulation...

So, Lucas Raymond, Dawson Mercer and Cole Sillinger's contracts are no longer slide eligible which means they've made the team, Eklund, who was 1 game away was sent to Sweden so he can still slide. Jake Neighbours is at 7 games played, Hendrix Lapierre at 6 games, Jarvis and McTavish at 3, Holtz and Perfetti at 2 and those are all the other slide players who are still eligible and have played an NHL game. Imo, Neighbours gets sent down, Lapierre stays up since the Caps kinda need him, Jarvis probably stays, McTavish gets sent down because the Ducks are hot garbage, Holtz probably reaches 10 after many back and forths between NHL and AHL, Perfetti is kind of in the same boat as Holtz

I’d pay good money to give the control of nhl social media to a group of hockey crazed 7th graders

God I wish overtime losses weren’t considered different

CBJ would be second in the Metro behind Carolina (Rangers would be 6-6, Flyers 6-4, Capitals 5-6).

Agreed. I could see MAYBE a minor penalty, but a major and thrown out of the game is a bit excessive. He like put his arm down and everything


When you’re skating at that speed it’s impossible to stop or turn that fast without shattering your ankle

Whether it’s intentional or not, that’s hitting a goalie at pretty decent speed so it’s an automatic penalty, however, no idea why he got 5 and a misconduct

The team with the highest average draft position is the Red Wings - 28.6

The team with the lowest average draft position is the Canadiens - 85.5

That’s because that’s another way of spelling his name, since the Russian alphabet doesn’t translate to the Latin alphabet 1:1.

That's correct. That's why there's often confusion on the spelling when Russian players come over - Shipachyov/Shipachev Tkachyov/Tkachev Yemelin/Emelin

Even Ovi's name look different too. In Russia/Europe it's written as Aleksandr Ovetskin. Technically, journalists here should write the name in this form, but it's growing increasingly rare.

It amazes me how Buffalo is a better team without their "core" Eichel, Reinhart, Ristolainen & Ullmark.

Speaking of Ullmark I think the Bruins would like a refund. People were hyping him as a top-tier starting goaltender.
