Are they going to threaten to move the Pens to Kansas City to get a new arena?

Has "you already have a new arena" ever stopped billionaire owners from trying to extort money out of the government?

That they're "billionaires" has nothing to do with anything. If local tax dollars and incentives are made available to businesses, why wouldn't they negotiate for them? I would.

It's hardly extortion when you have the freedom to walk away from a deal unharmed.

He is amazing, but seriously three poke checks and all the sudden the puck is in the back of the net lol. Maybe try to put a body on the guy.

The little guy who played for the BADgers was called up again from the minors yesterday for the Habs and was a -3 for the game.

I watched the condensed game but honestly MTL was bad in their own zone and goaltending wasn't great. Also he wasn't the only guy on the ice who struggled for them.

I feel like Montreal was an alright squad that had the bounces start going their way at the right time last season. The way the divisions were aligned didn't hurt, either.

Yeah the Habs kind of got a few rounds further than they should’ve in the playoffs last year (the jets weren’t good but the leafs were a better team even if they’re cursed and it’s funny).

Leafs cause a lot of their own problems at times, but losing Tavares just killed them. It shouldn’t have been that devastating because they have a lot of other offensive weapons, but it did.

I was actually looking for his +/- in his last game played, so I could fairly evaluate how good their two careers would pan out.

I assume you are on Team Caulfield and not Team Boldy. That is ok, and we will see how it turns out. I know some are on Team Boeser yet over Team Ek, so I'm sure the debate will go on.

For me, calling Caulfield the "little guy" has been a bit for a while. No doubt he is a NHL player and will score a ton of goals in his career. I just like to poke a few people that think the "little guy" is God and when he stumbles a bit I like to rile up his fans. The way the Gophers are playing, I need some joy in my life. Wink

I'm not on a team and I've probably missed some of the backstory on the Caulfield vs Boldy debate on this board. I just got a kick out of you sharing one games' worth of stats for Caulfield two years after he was drafted. :)

Colorado starter Kuemper injured in warmups. Av's had to dress the arena fill in goalie as their backup tonight. The Av's goalie tonight has already given up 8, but he will take one for the team. They flew a goalie in from the minors and he arrived mid game.

For the 2nd straight night, an NHL team will have a beer league goalie as their backup goalie. St Louis had a goalie test positive with covid and they don't have enough cap space to replace him. (which is a dumb rule and a safety issue if you ask me)

I watched this game, as it was Wheeler's 1k game. It got really ugly. Pionk also got suspended 2 games for kneeing that started this. There were fights all the way to the end of the game. Pionk is currently in the concussion protocol.

What a $%#@ show.

[media] https://twitter.com/TheAthletic/status/1468739879437623296 [/media]

Quote:
On Dec. 3, the Arizona Department of Revenue filed a tax lien notice in Maricopa County against IceArizona Hockey LLC, the company that owns the Coyotes, for more than $1.3 million in unpaid state and city taxes. The City of Glendale, which has been locked in a lengthy dispute with the Coyotes over delinquent bills, has already notified ASM, the Gila River Arena management company, and Coyotes team president and CEO Xavier Gutierrez of the cancellation of the Coyotes’ business license.

The City of Glendale is owed approximately $250,000 in unpaid city taxes, according to a letter from City Manager Kevin Phelps to Gutierrez, and the remaining amount is owed to the state. The state tax lien notice, obtained via a public records request, asserts that the Coyotes owe taxes dating back to June 2020

This sounds like something out of the old WHA days, where franchise's budgets were based on kiting and frequently folded like tents.

I'm feeling less confident that the NHL players will be going to the Olympics. It would be so Minnesota that a Wild player would get covid over there.
