2021-2022 NHL Thread

Thanks to the Steve Dangle podcast, all I see when I look at the Team Canada logo is a turkey's butt.  That aside, I agree - the white one in particular looks great!

I like all the jerseys. The white Canada jersey is sharp looking.

I agree that the white jersey is pretty snazzy but am I the only one who thinks the red is the wrong shade of red?

When you find the blind spot in the sentries?
 
No Leafs game on a Saturday night is weird but the potential of the Habs getting embarrassed on hockey night in Canada is enticing as well

That is genuinely remarkable. I took a flyer on Hughes for fantasy hockey this year because I thought he might have a breakout year and he's looked good in the few games he's played but, like, he's really done not much in his two years. I guess the Devils have a ton of confidence in him.

His production isn't there, but his underlying on-ice shot metrics and his microstats are solid enough they felt there's a platform to warrant this bet. I think it still takes him another 2 years to make this look good. NJD in the meantime doesn't really care about the cap hit and still have room to land Quinn to collect all the Hughes.

He was more of a 6x6 bet to me, so if he's good you pay a bit more on the next deal but it's all for prime years, rather than trying to figure out what that next cap hit looks like in his waning days. Generally, 8 year deals coming off the ELC is stupid for both player and team.
 
I mean...at some point you have to think the NHL just gets the picture. The Coyotes have been there for almost a quarter of a century. Hockey doesn't seem to work there. It's a successful league otherwise. Why would they keep fighting for these headlines every 6 months.
