I had to look up if Greiss is still with the Islanders.

Brind'Amour on vax protocol: "We sat for a year praying for a cure for this or a way out and we get it, and people don’t want to put their arm out to take the shot, it doesn’t make sense to me. I’m proud of our group that we’ll have everyone [...] 100% on board with this."

Spot on.

Best part is, without reading on, I don't know if this is true or not.

That's horrific.

Just for my information, this is the same woman that lied about his sports betting? This comment is in no way shape or form piggybacking on the tweet above.

[MR25]

I wasn't aware they came to a conclusion about the sports betting yet, but yes, both people are the same (his ex wife).

[Dickie Dunn]

League is still investigating but all indications at this point are his gambling issues are tied only to poker. Casinos and individual big name players for over $1.5MM.

That's got to be at least 10 games, between the Red Wings divisional opponents. Count another 4 for non-divisional.

Seems dumb that teams would want to keep a guy like that around.

[MR25]

Apparently overestimated the number of games played inter-division. He's missing 9 total

[mikey]

At a glance, it looks like nine games, but there's also logistical things like this road trip:

Sat Mar 12 7:00 PM @ Flames
Tue Mar 15 9:00 PM @ Oilers
Thu Mar 17 10:00 PM @ Canucks
Sat Mar 19 10:00 PM @ Kraken

Sure, he could just meet them in Seattle (assuming he doesn't get vax'd by then), but typically teams carry extra guys for road trips in case there's injury and you know for a fact Bert won't be available for 3 of the 4 games...

He plays on their top line, so that's why he hasn't been dispatched away...but it's so, so silly...Yzerman already made fun of him (well, at his expense) in his media availability...

[MR25]

Yeah I dont know why I overestimated. Is it only 5 games against teams in your division as opposed to 6? And there might be one or two you face 6 times in a season?

This is bugging me more than it should. I blame COVID for **** up last year's schedule.

I didn't know off the top of my head...did they do this, perhaps?

Realignment

The league will return to the previous alignment with East and West conferences.[3] As planned before the COVID-19 pandemic, the Seattle Kraken will be placed in the Pacific Division and the Arizona Coyotes will be moved to the Central Division.[4] If the cross-border travel restrictions had continued for another year, the league would have been forced to use a temporary alignment with an all-Canadian division for a second year.

Sure, but that's not the scheduling matrix...which I think is what mr 25 is looking for...

But how are his nuts?

Assault

[nocera]

Forced meme is forced.

[mikey]

Yup ^

and Jack no longer captain of Sabres...

[shmenguin]

F***in loser DNA in that one.

Do this before you make 9 figures. Once you take that deal, you go to work and shut up. McDavid I’m sure hates being in Edmonton. But he traded infinite wealth for keeping quiet about it. That’s the arrangement, dingus.
