How did the NHL teams get their names? Owen Cripps found a tie and decided to show off his new Las Vegas digs as St. Louis Blues, Pittsburgh Penguins, Vancouver Canucks, and more. These Canucks reversed course and surprised everyone by splashing money on JT Miller of Pittsburgh over the next seven years. The Montreal Canadiens and New York Rangers have been linked again in NHL trade rumors, and a day after one of the top KHL coaches kept their stars, why do so many Russian players prefer the NHL?
I’m still not sure what to make of the NHL commercial talk that Patrick Kane is involved in. Idle speculation, ‘idol’ speculation, or legit? Maybe all of the above. I’d love to see the Buffalo Sabers run aggressively toward him and have the Buffalo crawl out of the wet athletic basement they shared with the likes of the Pittsburgh Pirates and Jacksonville Jaguars. Although Kane’s getting out and out of the basement aren’t necessarily related, it would surely give a boost to an ardent and downtrodden fan base.
Then again, do you remember Chris Archer?
