His contract will look good after the owners bend the players over a barrel

Scared to find out what they didn't like. Any indication why they didn't like it?

That whole cap hit for contracts over 5 years thing probs didn't sit well with a couple owners.

Sources say #NHL pulled latest offer from the table partly because not every owner liked the deal. Several clubs weren't on board

How bout this? The players play fans pay for tickets and owners don't get to sit in executive suite's counting money this is ridiculous

My first reaction: "Ohhhhhhh no Scott that was not good...very stupid...very unnecessary.

My reaction after a few replays: "Ok well...dude....what are trying to duck a hit in that way? You put yourself in a terrible position...."

Conclusion? Worthy of a suspension, but I wouldn't say 10. That's a tad steep. Both parties are at "fault" though.

One thing the OHL does not mess around with is when they give suspensions, they from the start try to send a message.

Look forward to the day this kid is in a Flyers uniform.

IDK where he's gonna play since there at center, but it's gonna be a nice problem to have.

Roger Sterling. Get a grey suit, dye your hair white or put on a silver wig. Memorize a slew of politically incorrect one-liners.

Drawbacks: You'll have to constantly have a cocktail in one hand and you'll have to chain smoke all night.
