All 31 @NHL teams getting a 3rd jersey next year from @adidashockey.

This is surprising and cool news. I hope the Pens go for the Sunday yellow jersey. If not, I'd also welcome the Snoop Dogg jersey back. Really as long as it's not blue I'll be happy.
My vote has not changed.

If you're fine with not winning a Cup again, then sure we can bring back the pigeon.

Yeah, a reasonable Karlsson extension for Letang+Sprong+pick...yeah, you can sign me right up for that...

Amen

I am bad at making even trades but Ottawa would essentially swap no 1 D's for someone that they can afford (injury prone though). So we would have to sweeten the deal and perhaps Sprong + pick is enough.

They would get a new 1D and a prospect. I would probably want either Guentzel or Sprong + First round pick if I were them.

Letang is signed through 2022, that should be sweet enough.

Gah. It hurts.

Corey Perry injured. Poor Ducks.

I can't feel sad for them.

Me neither.

Korea (coached by two ex-Penguins Paek & Park) seems to have a decent team - they are up 2:1 after the 1st period against Canada playing with this roster:

Scrivens (Brust) – M. Robinson, Lee, Elliott, Ch. Genoway, Lalonde, Després, Gragnani – Beck, Roy, Wolski – Parenteau, Ellison, Klinkhammer – Frattin, Vey, R. Bourque – Kozun, O'Dell, Talbot – Howden.

The rest of the game:

The translation of that page is a beaut.

South Korea has just scored a goal!
Koreans are pushing for the second time on a rare event and they are overwhelmingly over Canada! Mike Teswtuide got off to his attacking blue puck and took advantage of having a fair amount of space from his opponents. So he swung forward and sent a shot that SANG WOOK KIM was spitting behind Scrivens' back, which was the second time in a match - 1: 2. Assistance: Mike Teswtuide.

The interesting thing is that I few months ago, I read some articles about how awesome Google Translate is now that they use neural networks capable of "deep learning." Frankly, I haven't seen any material improvements as far as Czech translations are concerned. Once you get slightly into informal speaking, the machines go crazy. [Recently, I found the Czech version of "Players' Tribune" - frankly better than the US original, because the stories are more intricate. There is a piece by ex-Penguin David Koci that talks about his decision to become an enforcer. It starts by what should be correctly translated as "In summer 2003, I got f&*&*&ing pissed off". The literal translation would have been "I got awfully filled by s%&t." The Google translation went "In summer 2003, I was horrified."]

Apparently he was running players the entire 3rd period. Jackwagon.

Yeah, he got absolutely worked by Edmonton last night...even Bobrovsky was taken off the case for the first time (I think) this year...

Postby **crusherstasiak** » Wed Dec 13, 2017 9:26 pm

Q: Who will be the team he scores against first time back from this injury?

So a tough guy that can actually play roughed up a rat. Must be nice to have a tough guy that can play good minutes, eh @MR25?

Does Marc Bergevin regret trading Sergachev?

He has his most talented skater, so he can't be too, too unhappy...but MS is really coming along quick...good question.

They NEEDED center help. Like, needed it.

Drouin ain’t the best center, though.

Yes, Zack Kassian is a better hockey player than Reaves.
