  1. I am shocked no Rangers news on the board about Chytil setback due to his conclusion which was announced today by the Rangers. Big news and horrible news sadly.

  2. Sad to see Zach leave the Island, but I will definitely be rooting for the Avalanche to Win another cup, for him

  3. Shannon I like how you just cut to the chase man no bs you just start with the “welcome back” every video and just keep the content going all the time. Enjoy ur vacation, you deserve it!

  4. Tampa's AHL affilate team is the Syracuse Crunch in Central New York – it is ok to mention that Shannon – LOL. I go to their games very often and it's is a great time.

  5. Any thoughts about the Oilers winning streak, while impressive, doesn’t match up with teams who set the record when there was no OT or shootout. The existing record is for consecutive wins in regulation. Just wondering what you think as I believe that you always bring a level of sanity to the discussion

  6. It looks like Parise wanted to go to a team with a chance to win the Cup. With him out of the picture for the Islanders, it would be cool if they signed Phil Kessel to put in the spot they were saving for Parise.

  7. I'm a Canadiens fan and totally Ok with the suspension, no room for that in the game, completely boneheaded move and most of all sucks to see it come from a team you cheer for.

  8. Who gives a crap about how much in money this will cost Gallagher? And how much would Pelech lose if that sickening hit had cost him his career or damages it in such a way he's out the league sooner than he would've been?

  9. Gallager should have been suspended for the rest of the year, not like the habs are doing anything this year anyway.

  10. I want that hat so bad, man. They never sell outright blue AVS hats in the ball arena store even tho they look the best.

  11. Man goes on vacation and makes sure the spam us with content. This is why we love you, Shannon

  12. Super sad to see Parise end up signing elsewhere but, hey its his final shot to have a chance at a cup and he deserves it. Will be rooting for him if it comes to that!

  13. 5 games is the perfect amount. Gotta remember, the dudes been in the league 12 years and this is his first real dirty play, plus he’s taken all kinds of uncalled abuse. It was a brutal hit for sure, but not the kind that gets you suspended 10 games.

  14. 5 games was a minimum you could give for such a nasty hit, so glad to see the DoPS finally step up.

  15. 5 games is fair- remember guys theres 82 games a season so provided he does play all those potentially with random injuries-illness or team discipline stuff like scratched for missing a warm up or something in-between this guaranteed 5 game pit does seem more appropriate. 1/16th of the season essentially is just gone for him. thats money more than their dumb ass 2000-5000$ fines.

  16. As an Avs fan, I don't know how to feel about the Parise signing… On the one hand, he objectively makes the forward group better and deeper. On the other hand… PARISE??? REALLY???

  17. I don't understand the "Yeah it's a lot of money he's losing" comments people keep making. I mean yes it is, but he's not making league min, isn't he making like eight million dollars a year? Is he really even going to notice it? Five games for a headshot that late and that targeted seems a little weak.

  18. Regarding Gallagher – given his lack of history, 5 games is hefty. But, given that hit? Slap on the wrist – at most. When I saw the hit, I would have been happy with 20.

  19. As a Habs fan, simmonds is the kind of guy, you love to hate, when facing against him. However if he were a Hab, I would likely be singing his praises as well now that he's done with playing hockey. I hope he enjoyed the ride, and hope many successes in his future endeavours.

  20. considering Pharros and his goons go awful easy on other goons 5 games for a guy with a clean record is too extreme,, it is ok to chop a guys head off with your stick but no elbows… NHL need to get it together…..

  21. How about Gallagher sits out til the damage he did is assessed and his victim can resume playing…. Proportional Justice…. Head hunter…

  22. Parise likely 4th line for Avs given third line of Wood/Colton/OConnor set in stone now. BUT given injuries, he is going to get time up in the second with Johansson and Lehkonen. The Bednar Blendar also means he will get looks with just about everyone.

  23. The 5 game suspension is meaningless. That’s just for us. For show.
    If you’re serious about no head hits, that has to be much more than 5 games.
    The message to the players from the NHL is : don’t worry too much about targeting a guy’s head.
    We prefer you didn’t, hence the 5 games, but no big deal. Keep going. 🤨

  24. I’m not sure why THG is now so sympathetic to lame suspensions and this clearly dangerous head hit.
    The NHL will be pleased you’re not being too hard on them 😒
    I thought you used to take a tougher stance on this kind of stuff.
    I liked that.
    The money is also just for show. Like the fines.
    The guy has a multi year multi multi million dollar deal with Montreal.
    He can afford the 400 K.
    And he doesn’t have to go to jail, like you normally would if you did that to somebody 😮
