Today I learned:

The LA Kings have the McFlurry Minute.

The McNugget Minute in DC finally has a worthy challenger.

Mason McTavish really has had the stars align.

Great draft year (for what it was), Gold Medal U18, high draft pick, WJC selection and dominated, now hes in the Olympics, he was traded in a OHL blockbuster, hes constantly traveling across CAN, USA, and now the world going to Switzerland before China all while still playing games.

He may have been a reach, now hes a hot commodity, and he could absolutely explode when he makes the NHL full time - hes had a lifetime happen in just about a 12 months and more to come in China.

Why can’t we just make changes. We need to get some talent. Stop putting guys in the lineup if you’re going to play them five minutes a game or scratch them.

Kings are dumb

They got so many prospects and picks to spend for a guy like this and it wont even make a splash in the Pool

Plus werent they looking for a guy like this

So Kane's investigation is coming to an end

His agent has notified the Hockey world there are 2 teams left: Edmonton is the only known one rn of the 2

Unless the NHL bans him for the season according to Kevin Weeks and Dreger expect him to sign in Edmonton or the other team soon.

But as of now all hints seem to point to him going to Edmonton


Now I will leave this her. Kane is probs gonna help improve the Oilers but this sends the wrong message to the NHL and in a sense the world. Kane basically should not be allowed in the NHL anymore as despite all the chances he has blown past all of them.

But hey media gonna have a field day with this

Whoever picks up Niku on waivers might get a pleasant surprise. I felt there was still some upside to the experiment.

We waived him? Why, we can run 8 D until Eddy comes back and Niku's been decent

I’d actually like that. I wanted him when he was out there originally, and I think he could be much better of an option than Cholowski, who we could waive instead (or Kempny, hopefully)

Arizona probably asked for untouchables such as Zach Jones and Pajuniemi

He's going to be a solid 1B behind Zegras.

Gibson, McTavish, Zegras, Drysdale, and Terry to lead the way. That ain't half bad.

Just thinking about it, the Ducks and Devils have pretty similar futures
Zegras= Hughes (American future 1C with crazy puck skills)
McTavish = Hischier (Swiss born centers that will be very good 2C)
Terry = Bratt (Young wingers with breakout seasons)
Drysdale = L Hughes (Future top pairing dmen)
Fowler = Hamilton (Top 4 dmen signed long term)
Lindholm = Severson (Top 4 dmen that could get traded soon, but good chance resign)

Then it becomes not similar
Gibson - Always good
mackenzie - maybe good
Holtz, Mercer - no one for the ducks.

Sheesh, lol. And I'd just like to say, Buffalo has a brighter future IMHO than NJ...

Dahlin - Hughes
Cozens - Hischier
Power - Hughes
Quinn - Holtz
Krebs - Mercer
Thompson - Bratt
UPL - Mackenzie
Ollofson - Sharangovich
Tuch - Hamilton
Jokiharju - Smith
Levi - Daws
Mitts - Boqvist
Sabres have alot more after this that I'd take over the remaining devil's.
