I think it was Dave Pagnota yesterday who reported that the Blackhawks have stated the rumors of Perry boinking Conner’s mom are FALSE.

Oh then there can’t be anything to the rumor. Wait…didn’t they try to coverup a sexual assault not long ago. What a train wreck organization.

Yup, pretending those fights don’t give the team a jolt just isn’t true

Do those fights give the team enough of a jolt to overcome the 22.22 GF% when he is on the ice at 5 on 5? Does the team liking the player overcome that?

I don’t mind Nic D, he stinks at offense but he’s not a liability like a Ryan Reaves

People quickly forget how this team was just pushed around and abused a few years ago. Not saying nd is a great player. He is here, and they will play him for that reason alone. And it’s not a fear factor that others will bring up. More purely confidence.

That's not correct. He is a liability. The other team scores almost 78% of the goals when he is on the ice. He is a definite liability.

Mr stats guy, how do you measure intangibles? or are they irrelevant? Maybe they do make enough of a difference. Maybe not, but they seem to have each other backs which is long overdue.

At 5 on 5 he is out scored 78%? That’s true or some expected number. Also, how many goals were directly attributed to Nic. Let’s get the tape.

To be honest, all 3 of our fourth line players have an NHL resume. I can’t remember the last time we had a 4th line that didn’t include a guy we found overseas or in the minors. We’ve been okay with guys like Patrick Brown for way too long.

Let's get the tape. We have a 101 game sample to draw from. He's a proven liability that doesn't belong in the lineup.

It's not an expected number. It's the actual number. Over those 101 games, his team has scored 20 goals while the opposition has scored 37.

The team making statement that rumors are false just make them MORE believable.

Hawks just announced that they are terminating Perry’s contract after an investigation. What an org they are. Glad they got bedard and weren’t punished for the previous scandal.

The (frank) did he do??

How many days will the same conversations take place.

How long until frost is scratched for 7 d? Just have the feeling it’s coming.

Keith Jones yesterday on Morgan Frost:

We think he’s a big part of our future. And you know, Morgan really came in and did some outstanding things. And some of his recent performances, which were huge. That’s not easy. I’ve been there. Danny’s been there. That’s not an easy part to be in as a player. So he’s handled it extremely well. I’m really proud of the way that he’s dealt with it.

And there’s going to be other players that come in and out [of the lineup]. We have right now, touch wood, a lot of options, but things will change, and we just want to make sure that Morgan continues to feel like he’s a big part of our future because we believe that he is.

To me, this means players will be traded and spots will open up for Frost and others.

what did he do?

Laid the pipe to Bedard's mother. Allegedly.

(frank)ing somebody's mom isn't exactly grounds to cancel somebody's contract...

This has to be 5 v 5 since Deslauriers does not play special teams, but then how can this 78% number make sense when Deslauriers is only a -5?

But it makes for one awkward locker room.

They did have a nice Moms' Trip earlier this month

https://thehockeynews.com...eady-for-annual-moms-trip

Connor Bedard said his mom, Melanie, is "super-pumped" to join the team for the team's fling.

"I'm excited to spend time with her and have her on the trip and kind of experience the stuff we do," Bedard said after Tuesday's practice. "I think they've got some stuff planned for them during our game days or whatever, so you know they'll have a good time."
