The new Oilers coach is Kris Knoblauch, i'm guessing he can't throw to first but maybe that won't matter in hockey?  They also hired Paul Coffey as assistant coach so probably a continued focus on defensemen who can play offense.
Ok my bad.  I thought I read somewhere they hired Sutter.

Sutter will be hired back by the Flames once the Sharks have fired him.  'Those who neglect...' etc 

I believe that Knoblauch was with McJesus in juniors, helped coach him to his first miracles.

Caps goalie playing his butt off tonight. I’m at the game and there’s a place called Swizzlers selling chicken sandwiches and burgers for $25. Crazy.

$25 for chicken AND a burger sounds ok.  Or did you mean either?

Either for $24.95. It does include fries. Other than drinks I didn’t see anyone buying their food.

Lindgren is 30 years old and has only played about 60 NHL games with a .907 career save percentage.  Last year in 31 games a .899 save percentage.  So if you want to believe he can turn into a top flight NHL goalie now good for you.

Not sure about how good a prospect the other guy is.  But he is not going to save 36 of 37. 37 shots in most games.

No one is going to trade for Keumper at $5 million a year for another three seasons after this one. Unless they would eat most of the salary. He is the Caps main goalie the next few years.

Nice call

I’m sure Charlie will keep it up right through to the Cup.  Bet the house.

At those prices I think you're spelling it wrong. Should be s-w-i-n-d-l-e-r.

IIRC the Fuku chicken sandwiches were 17 without fries...but they were also brined with habaneros and had wasabi aoli so all good in my book  :D

Charlie regressing in goal. Who could have guessed that. Hard to win also if you don’t score. Getting worried about Ovi.  Need more goals.
