Carol Schram: Hlinka Gretzky Cup, World Juniors will spice up this August for hockey fans We're into the dog days of summer, but international hockey will keep us entertained in August. The Hlinka Gretzky Cup gets underway this Sunday, followed by the second edition of the 2022 World Junior Championship kicking off on August 9.

Thanks Carol,

I'm glad the D is set.

Thanks Carol!

A top 4 RHD would be nice. Poolman is not a top 4 guy lol

Looks like D!cckenson will stick as 3LC for now? Had a rough go with injuries last season.

Top 9 looks solid with Miller returning and Mikheyev/Kuz in there.

Lazar as 4LC looks good.

Only a few holes to fill...

RHD are hard to come by, and there's this...

Rutherford: It's appears that it's going to take longer to address the defense than we would have liked and we're going to have to do it through trades.

The Vancouver Canucks playing the Detroit Red Wings in Detroit during the 1970/71 season.

Hmm interesting! Ive been expectimg it to be through a Garland or Miller trade, could still see it happenening before the season. I think he thought they would have got one by now, but the market is tough.

Great scoop on the Rutherford quote. Hadn't heard that one yet...

Kind of why I've tempered my expectations this summer. People are on vaycay and such as well.

Thanks Carol!

Klimgberg should sign a cheap one year deal with a team like Colorado, Carolina, Florida etc and see if he can capture a cup and up his value as a successful playoff performer. Dallas was trash last year - really no better than the Canucks.

I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out.

Pat Quinn looking for someone to punch out …

Thanks Carol! VHG, knock it off with the fighting clips this a turn the cheek organization

Thank you carol

Maybe they luck out.

lots of time yet, I think there will be a couple more things done. Islanders have been particularly quiet which has been mentioned by John Shannon a few times now. Couple of other teams that may be looking. I wouldnt hate Subban one year one mil.

I guess it's an upgrade and a stop-gap of sorts, we just don't have anything to gap.

Agreed Neem, 1 year 1 mil is nothing.

It would be a veteran partner for Rathbone on the bottom pair, could probably play up sometimes during injury.
