Ottawa Senators forward Connor Brown took a puck to the jaw during warmups last night.
Not thinking it was bad, he played the full game, recorded a goal and an assist and picked up the 2nd Star.
Turns out, Brown has a broken jaw and is now out indefinitely.

from Steve Simmons of the Toronto Sun,
- Ken Holland says he believes in second chances. Maybe math wasn’t his best subject.
In the still undetermined matter of the National Hockey League vs. Evander Kane, the latest version in an ongoing series, the signing of the troubled Kane by Holland in Edmonton, or by any other general manager in any other city for that matter, would not represent a second chance for the troubled winger.
What chance would it be?
Five? Six? Eight? Depends on who is doing the counting.
There have been issues over the years with assault, with off-ice behaviour, with decision making, with the law, with team rules, with teammates, with women, those he was married to and those he was not, with gambling, with lawsuits, with bankruptcy, and that’s just slightly brushing the canvas of the challenge Kane brings to whichever team that chooses to sign him, all of that possibly coming after he is suspended again by the NHL///

The Montreal Canadiens have named Kent Hughes the 18th general manager in franchise history.
Hughes was a player agent, representing clients such as Patrice Bergeron, Kris Letang and Drake Batherson.

NEW YORK/TORONTO (Jan. 18, 2022) – Following a meeting of their respective medical groups last week, the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) and the National Hockey League (NHL) announced today the following updates to their COVID Protocol:
Five-Day Isolation Period: The isolation period Protocol update issued Dec. 29 appears to be functioning well in its current form. A significant portion of Players appear to be exiting isolation after five days, with a lab-based PCR test that has a CT value >30.
Testing Protocol: The plan is to continue the current testing Protocol through Feb. 3. Provided positive test results continue to decline within the NHL, and pending review and agreement by Jan. 31 by the NHL’s and NHLPA’s medical experts, the Protocol will be updated as follows:
i. There will be no testing of Fully Vaccinated Players and Staff during the All-Star break (including for participating Players and staff), unless needed for travel or development of symptoms.
ii. There will be a single test upon re-entry to Club facilities post-All-Star, after which there will no longer be asymptomatic testing, or testing of Fully Vaccinated close contacts.
iii. Thereafter, testing will continue only on a limited “for cause” basis in Fully Vaccinated Players and Staff who develop symptoms or require testing for cross-border travel.
iv. The post-COVID “testing holiday” will remain at 90 days, but symptom-based testing can still be done at the team physician’s discretion. Testing for cross-border travel post-COVID will be dictated by the relevant health authority, which is currently 90 days for entry to the U.S. and 180 days for entry to Canada.
Enhanced Measures: The current enhanced preventive measures will remain in place in the short term. The NHLPA and NHL will meet on Jan. 31 to make recommendations for relaxation of the enhanced measures, providing rates continue to decline within the NHL.

Sad day. Former NY Islanders power forward & HOF Clark Gillies passed away at 67 . Growing up as a Islanders fan watching Gillies playing with Trottier and Bossy what a line. Not only that but taking on some of the toughest fighters of his day. RIP Mr. Gillies

Are we not about due for a Kane update? His agent said he would be on a team last weekend.....
The league should be able to wrap up this investigation with ease.

Nhl has to finish its investigation of the Covid protocol breaches. I'm sure they are going to take their time because finding him "guilty" at this time will look bad. To the NHL they will only see their decisions come down on a black player, rather than just another player in the nhl that cannot get his shit together. His race has no weight in his situation he put himself into. |
