I say we put the Canadian teams in the AHL and exclude them from the playoffs.

They do a pretty good job excluding themselves.

That one might be a little tough in a few years...

Bergevin is also playing with house money probably...if he doesn't make the playoffs this year, he's probably done in Montreal...so who cares what the team looks like in 3...

It seems like Sweden could be very interesting for young players to get "sure" playing time this winter. I am not sure how good Connor Bedard is/will be but he seems kind of hyped.

Are there still restrictions on Americans traveling to Europe these days?

1. I don’t know but probably
2. I don’t think Joe Thornton cares what restrictions Americans have

Interesting. Didn't realize his wife was Swiss.

So if he signs an NHL contract can they retroactively "loan" him to HC Davos? How does that work with contract insurability n'at

I thought I read somewhere that he holds a Swiss passport.

Thornton's wife is Swiss, he spends summers in Switzerland, and he's had this plan to play in Switzerland to start the year to stay fresh but also extend his life...then try to come back to the NHL at around the trade deadline...Toronto is probably the leading spot right now, with 0 GP...

There could be new divisions for next year due to border crossing issues.
