2017-2018 NHL Thread

Jack Johnson has requested a trade from the Columbus Blue Jackets because he no longer believes that they are better together.

He's just sitting, waiting, wishing for a trade.

Will this turn all their season's plans upside down?

Situations like this call for desperate measures.

In times like these, you just never know what opportunity might arise. It?s just a cryin? shame it has come to this.

There must have been a breakdown between him and the team, and now there's just no other way.

This, coupled with their recent losing streak, is becoming the talk of the town.

Phillip Danault takes a 123km/hr Zdeno Chara one-timer off the side of the head and leaves on a stretcher.

You and Herman are just a couple of mediocre bad guys.

Seguin dekes out all 3 Bruins players and then scores to win it for Dallas in overtime.

Didn't fit their culture.

Why is Boston's defense coach teaching the lying down method?

There's probably a fire safety joke in here somewhere...

Does anyone know why he dropped?

Does anyone know why he dropped?

Draft year knee injury limited him to 44 games.

Also Florida and Boston and Colorado and Dallas dropped the ball.

Local hero discusses drafting Barzal if the Leafs ended up dropping to 6th overall that year:

I'm probably leaning towards Provorov. Maybe Mathew Barzal, whose likely under-ranked because of his injury.

As everyone predicted before the season started, Vegas currently has the best record in the league.

This is impossible.

This is impossible.

And, yet, it is reality.

This would be like if Steve Simmons publicly said "you know what, maybe Phil Kessel wasn't fat and lazy".
