And the reply tweet as well

I wonder what the damage would’ve been if he wore his mouthguard properly

Okay, this is a bit ridiculous.

Wild's Ryan Hartman suspended 10 games for roughing Senators' Tim Stutzle

The Minnesota Wild will be without forward Ryan Hartman for 10 games after the NHL Department of Player Safety handed him a suspension on Monday.

It was a pretty dirty move.

I have no clue how many games a guy will get and for what.

I am still mad that Bennett keeps injuring guys via sucker punches and gets a $5K fine.

That's a hockey move Cabber.

That's a hockey move Cabber.

Sucker punching people in the face while hitting is not a hockey play.

The NHL DOPS disagrees with us.

Last time Weekes posted a Pittsburgh aerial view shortly after the Rantanen trade which had everyone champing at the bit for a Crosby to Colorado trade. Turned out it was some ownership moves with Fenway Sports.

This is downtown Buffalo.

Matthews has tried this at least twice a season

Nashville has lost their last 6 games in a row...just previous to those 6 games, they had won their last 5.

I don't really understand that team, but I'd bet on the chemistry just not getting sorted out.

Edmonton lost 6-3 against Philly but Klingberg put up 1G1A. That's his first two points since coming back and he's a +3 on 6 games.

Nice to see him have a rebound. Too bad we don't get to benefit after basically funding his rehab

Ooof and they’re down McAvoy for the medium term too

Thanks to Vancouver/New York Rangers, Kyle Dubas has two* shots at this in 2026

NYR 2025 1R is top 13 protected, and the Rangers are in free fall

Winnipeg has been a great story this year, and they've won their last 9 games...running away with the Western Conference.

Interestingly, both Scheifele and Valardi, who are 2nd and 3rd respectively in goals for the team (behind Connor), have S% of 25.0% and 24.1% respectively.

Going to be a bad time in Winnipeg when those shooting percentages start to regress (likely in the playoffs).

Paul Maurice and the Jets must have really, really hated each other equally.

Paul Maurice and the Jets must have really, really hated each other equally.

Didn’t he shout them out as the next Cup winners on the ice after winning for Florida?

I think the team and Maurice just couldn’t deal with Blake Wheeler.

So since Jan 1 2025, here are your top 6 teams in terms of P%:

Washington - .800
Winnipeg - .789
Detroit - .750
Dallas - .738
NYR - .643
Toronto - .632

I guess NYR was due for some sort of rebound given the talent on that team, but what a job McLellan is doing in Detroit.
