This is going to be funny for the playoffs if players need to sit due to equipment issues

Players buying back game worn memorabilia would also be hilarious

This is a great example of why diversification is important.

I'll be the "but, actually..." guy on this highlight but that's some terrible decision making by #23 there. Obviously you want to guard against the pass but you can't just watch a guy go in all alone on the goalie.

True, but in watching this I can't help but be reminded of when Rielly got roasted because McDavid is good.

Seems short in all honesty.

Am I the only one who though he probably just didn't process that quick enough to let up on the hit?

This is really the problem with lower end players in the NHL. 

Obvious statement of them playing at lower tier leagues and being immensely talented but the speed of the NHL game is just on a different level.  Too many of these lower end guys who have to make big hits to stay in the league just don't have the ability to adjust in time on plays like this. 

I don't think this was a particularly terrible play compared to some other hits, but Trent Frederic with his 10 points in 81 career games just potentially took out the 12th leading scorer over the past 2 seasons. 

Kaprizov is already in a bit of a vulnerable position battling with the other Bruins player but I think that contact is what makes his lose his balance when he tries to make the turn.  Nothing illegal about that part, but here comes Frederic hoping to lay a big hit on the star player because he's just not that good at playing the puck.

The NHL has a real problem with this stuff.

I agree.  He almost looks like he tried to let up but too late.

Apparently Edmonton has interest in Kane because, why not.

Time for the Leafs to hire Sundin.

Holland believes in "second" chances...second?

While I think that would be cool, I get the impression that he?s not interested in that kind of work. Or living here.
