Oilers got completely shut down. Impressive win by Vegas and with their current main goalie going down with injury.

-report from a Chicago Sun Times reporter:


Ben Pope



@BenPopeCST

·




The Blackhawks have already sold $2.5 million worth of season-ticket plans for 2023-24 in the 1.5 hours since winning the #1 pick — including more than 500 new full-season plans.


Call it the Connor Bedard effect.

In the 90 minutes following 2023 NHL Draft lottery, the Chicago Blackhawks sold $2.5 million worth of season-ticket plans for the 2023-24 season, according to Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

The sales spike included more than 500 new full-season plans, Pope adds.



In the 12 hours after the announcement, that sales figure has ballooned to $5.2 million, with more than 1200 new full-season plans, according to Pope




It's too bad that Aquaman does not get a penny of that season ticket revenue hahaha.

Devils dominance continuing in this game, pouring it on the first full 2 minutes and scoring their first goal of the game

Insane crowd too. I don't know why Edmonton wasn't like this to start their game after a blowout win

Should Chicago's NHL team have first draft pick after its handling of sex assault scandal?

You guys really wouldn't love a scene like this in Toronto to finalize the season and begin the complete teardown of the team?

Kraken getting completely negated... (they scored as I typed this lol)

One Dallas goal had goaltender interference, but since it was outside the blue paint the goal counted. Aside from that Dallas is getting away with a lot of interference

These playoffs are so weird, with lopsided games back and forth in the west, and the two series in the east getting ready to end in 4 or 5 games

That likely sealed the deal and secured Bedard.

I mean there is still time. If Chicago Blackhawks fans really care that much about the sex assault scandal, they could boycott the team say for the 23/24 season. That would send a clear message to the NHL and the team that we will not tolerate this kind of behavior. But they just sold out their arena, so nobody really cares.

I already saw a meme somewhere featuring Bedard and a fake quote that said "I hope the video coach is a hands off type of guy" so no I don't think people are taking it too seriously anymore.

Life move fast. Everybody wants to ride the woke train or whatever it is that's the current latest trend to "care" about. But even I'm guilty of forgetting this incident altogether until it was brought up again.

While I strongly support the idea Chicago should have been punished, I can't say it was on the top of my mind during the draft... cause simply more shit has happened around the world since.
