NHL Week 1 musings

Bruins have played one game so far. Kraken have played 5. Quality scheduling.

Guy lays probe on the ice, gets punched in the back of the head with a stick around his throat, $5000 fine. Guy throws a dangerous and dirty hit, gets punched in retaliation, 1 game suspension. Quality consistency.

Let's crack down on cross checking, unless it's against Tampa Bay. Don't argue, you all know it's true.

Only early, but Arizona look to be heading towards the best odds in the lottery. Clearly worse than a very impressive Buffalo so far. Maybe Montreal might be getting involved?!?

Hearing a lot about a hard cap league. Let's put it this way, injuries happen in sports. You shouldn't get cap relief for that, and you wouldn't in a hard cap league. Cap circumvention may be allowed in the rules, but it doesn't mean it's not cheating. Time to remove the option.
