Agree, if Patty wanted to be here he would have been the past two seasons. I think he is better than Melker or Donkey but we cant afford him anymore. I guess Patty thinks this is the NBA where players can pick who & what teams they want to play for That's because Toronto gave him a no movement clause. It is Toronto that wants to move him for cap relief. I have no issues with Marleau saying that if they want him to agree to a trade he gets a say in where he ends up. |

Toronto won't eat any salary or take any contract for Patty. They'd rather shed Kapanen, prospects, picks, maybe even Andreas Johnsson, but the key for them is to subtract salary, not to replace. |

WTF? The Sharks could've put Erik Karlsson on IR and saved some extra N*100K for this season's cap.

VANCOUVER (June 20, 2019) — The National Hockey League announced today a series of rule changes for the 2019-20 season which will include the use of expanded video review and enhanced player safety initiatives, as well as promoting even more offense and flow in the game.
The rule changes were unanimously approved by the League’s Board of Governors, NHL General Managers and the Competition Committee over the past week. NHL Hockey Operations will work on the precise Rule Book language over the coming weeks. Following is an overview of the changes:
EXPANSION OF COACH’S CHALLENGE
NEW CATEGORY: In addition to Coach’s Challenge for “Off-side” and “Interference on the Goalkeeper”, a third category will allow for the Coach’s Challenge of goal calls on the ice that follow plays in the Offensive Zone that should have resulted in a play stoppage, but did not.
This change will allow Challenges of plays that may involve pucks that hit the spectator netting, pucks that are high-sticked to a teammate in the offensive zone, pucks that have gone out of play but are subsequently touched in the offensive zone and hand passes that precede without a play stoppage and ultimately conclude in the scoring of a goal. Plays that entail “discretionary stoppages” (e.g. penalty calls) will not be subject to a Coach’s Challenge.
Coach’s Challenges for these types of plays (and for “Off-Side” Challenges) will only be available if the puck does not come out of the attacking zone between the time of the “missed” infraction and the time the goal is scored.
PENALTIES FOR UNSUCCESSFUL CHALLENGES: The number of Coach’s Challenges that can be made will no longer be limited based on the availability of a team’s time-out. Teams will be permitted to exercise a Coach’s Challenge at any time, but with escalating “consequences” for unsuccessful Challenges. The consequences of unsuccessful Coach’s Challenges will be made consistent across all three Categories of Coach’s Challenges: (1) minor penalty for Delaying the Game on a Club’s first unsuccessful Coach’s Challenge; and (2) double minor penalty for Delaying the Game for each additional Coach’s Challenge that is unsuccessful.
The Situation Room in Toronto will continue to be responsible for initiating video review in the final minute of regulation time and overtime as well as continue to have final authority over all Coach’s Challenge video review decisions with input and consultation from both the On-Ice Officials and a former Official staffed in the Situation Room.
REFEREES REVIEW OF MAJOR/MATCH PENALTY CALLS AND DOUBLE MINOR HIGH-STICKING PENALTIES
MAJOR & MATCH PENALTIES: Referees will be required to conduct an on-ice video review for all Major (non-fighting) and Match Penalties they assess on the ice for the purpose of: (a) “confirming” the penalty; or (b) “reducing” the penalty to a two-minute minor penalty. Referees shall not have the option to rescind a called penalty altogether.
The Referees will be provided with all available video to review their own calls but will not otherwise consult with the NHL Situation Room with respect to their review.
DOUBLE MINOR FOR HIGH-STICKING: Referees will have the ability to conduct an on-ice video review to confirm (or not) their original call on the ice, and, in particular, whether the stick causing the apparent injury was actually the stick of the Player being penalized. The Referee’s review of all High-Sticking/Double-Minor Penalties will be discretionary and not mandatory and will be conducted without consultation with the NHL Situation Room.
OTHER APPROVED RULE CHANGES
HELMETS: Subject to further consultation with the NHL Players’ Association on precise language, a Player on the ice whose helmet comes off during play must (a) exit the playing surface, or (b) retrieve and replace his helmet properly on his head (with or without his chin strap fastened). A Player who is making a play on the puck or who is in position to make an immediate play on the puck at the time his helmet comes off, shall be given a reasonable opportunity to complete the play before either exiting the ice or retrieving and replacing his helmet. Failure to comply with the above will result in a minor penalty being assessed on the offending player. A Player who intentionally removes an opponent’s helmet during play shall be assessed a minor penalty for roughing.
LINE CHANGES FOR DEFENSIVE TEAM: The defensive team will not be permitted a line change when a goalie freezes the puck on any shot from outside the center red line. Similarly, if the actions of a skater of the defensive team cause a stoppage by unintentionally dislodging the net from its moorings, the defensive team will not be permitted to make a line change. In both of these instances, the offensive team will have the choice of which end zone dot the face-off will take place.
FACE-OFFS FOLLOWING AN ICING & TO BEGIN A POWER-PLAY: Following an icing as well as at the beginning of any power-play, the offensive team will have the choice of which end zone dot the face-off will take place.
AWARDED GOAL: If the goal post is deliberately displaced by a goalkeeper during the course of a “breakaway”, a goal will be awarded to the non-offending team.
PUCK OUT OF BOUNDS: When the attacking team is responsible for the puck going out of play in the attacking zone, in all instances, the face-off will be conducted at one of the two face-off dots in the attacking zone.

There is also an ambiguity - what comes first: faceoff dot pick or line changes?

The draft is tonight and tomorrow
via the NHL PR department,
2019 NHL DRAFT COULD HAVE STRONG DOSE OF AMERICAN TALENT
With many American players among the top-ranked prospects, a look at some of the country’s most successful showings in the NHL Draft:
* Seven American-born players have been selected first overall in the NHL Draft, with Auston Matthews the last in 2016 by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
* Five American-born players have been selected first overall by an American-based team: center Brian Lawton in 1983 (Minnesota North Stars), center Mike Modano in 1988 (Minnesota North Stars), goaltender Rick DiPietro in 2000 (New York Islanders), defenseman Erik Johnson in 2006 (St. Louis Blues) and forward Patrick Kane in 2007 (Chicago Blackhawks).
* Since the seven-round draft was introduced in 2005, the most American-born players selected in one year is 66 (2014).
* Including every NHL draft, the most American-born players selected in one year came in 1987 when 100 were chosen over 12 rounds.
* The most American-born players selected in the first round of any draft is 12, set at the 2016 NHL Draft in Buffalo when Matthews topped the list at first overall. In addition to 2016, three other drafts have seen at least 10 American-born players selected in the first round: 11 in 2007, 10 in 2006 and 10 in 2010.
* At least three American-born players have been selected among the top 10 on six occasions, including two years with four. (chart in attached PDF)
* The most American-born players selected in the top five in a draft is three, achieved in 1983 at the Montreal Forum when centers Brian Lawton(1st), Pat LaFontaine (3rd) and goaltender Tom Barrasso (5th) were among the first five names announced.
* Only nine American-born goaltenders have been selected in the first round of the NHL Draft: Rick DiPietro (1st in 2000), Tom Barrasso (5th in 1983), Al Montoya (6th in 2004), Jack Campbell (11th in 2010), Brian Boucher (22nd in 1995), Jake Oetttinger (26th in 2017), Corey Schneider (26th in 2004), Jason Bacashihua (26th in 2001) and Tom McCollum (30th in 2008).
* Jack Hughes (Orlando, Fla.) is set to become the third player born in Florida to be selected in the first round of the NHL Draft; he would join his brother Quinn Hughes (Orlando, Fla.), who went seventh overall to the Vancouver Canucks in 2018, and defenseman Jakob Chychrun (Boca Raton, Fla.), who was chosen 16th overall by the Arizona Coyotes in 2016.
* Overall, 23 players born in Florida have been selected in the NHL Draft.
BEHIND THE NUMBERS: UNITED STATES NATIONAL TEAM DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Nineteen players from the USA Hockey National Team Development Program’s Under-18 Team were included on NHL Central Scouting’s Final Rankings for North American players (17 skaters, 2 goalies). That includes the No. 1 spot for skaters (Jack Hughes) and goaltenders (Spencer Knight), along with half the top 10 for skaters and half the top four for goaltenders.
All notes below refer to players drafted directly from the Under-18 Team:
* The only player selected first overall directly from the Under-18 Team is defenseman Erik Johnson, who was chosen by the St. Louis Blues in 2006. (chart in attached PDF)
* The most players selected from the Under-18 Team in one year is 13, achieved in 2006 and again in 2007. In fact, only one other amateur team has had as many players selected in the same year: 13 members of the Ontario Hockey League’s Kitchener Rangers were chosen in 1974.
* The only year that multiple players from the Under-18 Team were selected among the top 10 was 2005, when defenseman Jack Johnson went third overall to Carolina Hurricanes and right wing Jack Skille went seventh overall to the Chicago Blackhawks.
* Seven first rounds have seen three players selected from the Under-18 Team. (chart in attached PDF)
* The only goaltender drafted in the first round from the Under-18 Team is Jack Campbell, who was selected 11th overall by the Dallas Stars at the 2010 NHL Draft in Los Angeles – where Campbell now plays with the Kings.
FINLAND CONTINUES TO PRODUCE TOP PROSPECTS
* Seven Finnish-born players have been selected among the top three in the NHL Draft, including one in each of the last three years. A Finnish-born player has never been selected first overall. (chart in attached PDF)
* Only two drafts have seen four or more Finnish-born players selected in the first round: 2017 (6 - Miro Heiskanen, Juuso Valimaki, Urho Vaakanainen, Kristian Vesalainen, Henri Jokiharju and Eeli Tolvanen) and 2002 (5 – Kari Lehtonen, Joni Pitkanen, Jesse Niinimaki, Sean Bergenheim and Hannu Toivonen).
* A player born outside North America has been selected either first or second overall 22 times, including at least one in each of the past three drafts.
HUGHES, SUZUKI AIM TO JOIN BROTHERS IN FIRST ROUND + MORE NHL BLOODLINES
* Jack Hughes is set to follow his brother, Quinn Hughes (7th overall in 2018, Vancouver Canucks), in being selected in the first round of the NHL Draft. Four sets of brothers have been selected in the opening round of the draft in consecutive years. (chart in attached PDF)
* Another prospect is aiming to join his brother as a first-round pick – Ryan Suzuki (No. 18-ranked North American Skater) can follow in the footsteps of Nick Suzuki (13th overall in 2017, Vegas Golden Knights).
* Entering 2019, 35 sets of brothers have been selected in the first round of the NHL Draft. The last brothers to achieve the feat were Evgeny Svechnikov (19th overall in 2015, Detroit Red Wings) and Andrei Svechnikov (2nd overall in 2018, Carolina Hurricanes).
* Two of the top five-ranked North American Skaters had fathers who were drafted to the NHL: Bowen Byram and Alex Turcotte. Click here for details and for more NHL bloodlines.
THIS AND THAT: 56 YEARS OF THE NHL DRAFT
A closer look at NHL drafts past and present:
British Columbia
* The city of Vancouver and province of British Columbia are hosting the NHL Draft for the third time after also doing so in 1990 at BC Place Stadium – when the Quebec Nordiques selected right wing Owen Nolan first overall – and 2006 at General Motors Place (now Rogers Arena) – when the St. Louis Blues chose defenseman Erik Johnson.
* The Canucks made 11 selections in 1990 – including center Petr Nedved (2nd overall) and left wing Gino Odjick (86th overall) – and five selections in 2006, choosing Michael Grabner (14th overall) in the first round.
* Center Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (Burnaby, B.C.) is the only player born in British Columbia selected first overall in the NHL Draft (2011, Edmonton Oilers).
* Center Sam Reinhart (West Vancouver, B.C.) was the last British Columbia-born player selected among the top five in the NHL Draft, going second overall to the Buffalo Sabres in 2014. Overall, 21 British Columbia-born players have been selected among the top five.
* The most British Columbia-born players selected in the first round of a single draft is four, achieved four times – most recently at the 2007 NHL Draft in Columbus when Kyle Turris (New Westminster, B.C.), Karl Alzner (Burnaby, B.C.), Zach Hamill (Vancouver, B.C.) and Colton Gillies(White Rock, B.C.) were selected third, fifth, eighth and 16th overall, respectively.
* The most British Columbia-born players selected in a single NHL Draft is 23, set in 1980 when there were 10 rounds. Since the seven-round draft was introduced in 2005, the most British Columbia-born players selected in one year is 18 (2010).
* Ten players from the British Columbia Hockey League were ranked by NHL Central Scouting, with center Alex Newhook of the Victoria Grizzlies as the highest-ranked skater (No. 13-ranked North American Skater).
Canadian Territories
* Dylan Cozens (Whitehorse, Yukon) can become the first player born in the Yukon selected in the first round of the NHL Draft. The only Yukon-born players drafted by an NHL team are Whitehorse natives Peter Sturgeon (36th overall in 1974, Boston Bruins) and Bobby House (66th overall in 1991, Chicago Blackhawks).
* Overall, 10 players born in one of the three Canadian Territories have been drafted – with Yellowknife, N.W.T., natives Gregory Vaydik (7th in 1975, Chicago Blackhawks) and Vic Mercredi (16th in 1973, Atlanta Flames) the only first-round picks.
Western Hockey League
* The most Western Hockey League players selected in the first round of the NHL Draft is 10, achieved in 1982 when Gord Kluzak of the Billings Bighorns led the WHL contingent (1st overall, Boston Bruins). There have been five instances of nine WHL players selected in the first round (2014, 2008, 2007, 1996 and 1995).
* A total of 27 WHL players have been selected among the top three in the NHL Draft, with Nolan Patrick (2nd overall in 2017, Philadelphia Flyers) the only one since 2015.
International Flavor
* Each of the last three first-overall picks hail from different countries: Auston Matthews (United States) selected by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2016, Nico Hischier (Switzerland) selected by the New Jersey Devils in 2017 and Rasmus Dahlin (Sweden) selected by the Buffalo Sabres in 2018.
* Seven German-born players have been selected in the first round, most recently in 2018 when Dominik Bokk was chosen 25th overall by the St. Louis Blues. German-born players have never been selected in the first round of the draft in consecutive years. (chart in attached PDF
* The chart below notes the most first-round picks in one draft by country, both all-time and since 2005 when the draft was limited to seven rounds. (chart in attached PDF)
Teammates
* The most teammates selected in the first round of the NHL Draft is four, achieved five times. (chart in attached PDF)
* The last team to have three players selected in the first round of the NHL Draft was the USA Hockey National Team Development Program’s Under-18 Team in 2018 (Oliver Wahlstrom: 11th; Joel Farabee: 14th; and K’Andre Miller: 22nd).

from Mark Spector of Sportsnet,
So one of the changes announced on Thursday was just that: from now on, referees will be “required to perform an on-ice video review for all major (non-fighting) and match penalties. The official can downgrade his call to a minor, of video evidence shows the referee that he perhaps overreacted to the call.
That seems fair, doesn’t it? And it does not require a challenge from one of the coaches, something Bettman would rather cull from the game.
Challenges, as we have learned, become an act of desperation late in a one-goal game. Coaches have nothing to lose, and the game is slowed down because of it.
On Thursday the GMs eliminated the number of challenges a coach can make, but they will now come with escalating consequences if the challenge is unsuccessful. The first unsuccessful challenge of any type results in a minor penalty against the challenging team (no more losing their timeout). Each successive unsuccessful challenge will result in a double-minor.
As such, the GMs made the goalie interference challenge just like offside. Where it used to be that a failed goaltender interference call cost a team their timeout, now it will mean a two-minute minor that is assessed immediately after the goal in question.

LOL. Back when your hairstyle mattered in hockey! I once knew a guy who actually played with Goldy back in the day, hilarious stories of that character. Described as a slow homeless guy who was a great 6 foot athlete whose face turned normal when he played. But without hockey he probably would have ended up in an institution. Games always took a brutal turn for the worse when somebody on the bench would say.. “Uh oh, Goldy’s getting mad..” Great that he’s still going at 66! |
