Crosby and Pierre.  What a combo.

I swear Pierre was ready to cry in that last period.

Turns out the NHL is playing 69% of a full season this year.

Oshie sure is involved on the score sheet...in the first 10+ minutes, he has: an assist, a penalty, in the box when Buffalo scored their goal, and a Power Play goal of his own...

The Gr8 has 2 assists in the same time...

Marchand with the game winner as the Bruins lick the Devils.

We have one of those too - though Jarkko Ruutu probably gets the silver crown after The Tongue

I would out Malkin at 1. Crosby 2.  He’s really just annoying and a whiner.

Malkin looks like the missing link, so he loses rat points.

Ovechkin has had his share of hits called into question, though he and the team have never seem to have been treated as untouchable gold in the NHL media and brass culture quite as much as Crosby, Canada’s next big superstar hope — even before a puck had dropped for his first game. (The report that Crosby specifically contacted the league to “consult“ on the lengthy Wilson suspension tipped it for me.)

Yea.  He's not a handsome man for sure.

Pierre seems less annoying this season...maybe NBC got him a life coach...

His recollection of facts really is pretty amazing...

Pretty big trade:

Pierre-Luc Dubois and a 3rd Round draft pick go from the Winnipeg Jets to the Columbus Blue Jackets for Patrik Laine & Jack Roslovic.

Dubois was in Tortz' doghouse, and Laine has long wanted out of Winnepeg.  Each team ridding themselves of headaches...

Major NHL minutia: 

If the Panthers Keith Yandle plays in every game both this year and next...he will have played in exactly 1,000 consecutive regular season NHL games at the end of the 2021-2022 season at the age of 35...

This dates back to the 2007-2008 season...

What's peculiar about this is, due to a mid-season trade between the Blue Shirts and the Panthers in the 2014-2015 season, he played 84 games that season rather than the regular slate of 82 games.
