-cool to see the Canucks present a commemorative banner to Bryan Adams during his concert at Rogers Arena on September 12th.
Adams had a concert at the arena way back in September 2005 to open the building.

Kane presented the banner to Adams:

JT Miller named captain of NY Rangers

No fags allowed on THAT team! Lol

Even some Rangers fans were caught off guard with the choice. I'm sure he'll do well as captain there but one of their fans (a youtuber) pointed out they have a habit of trading their captains so take that as you will lol.

First pre-season game tonight at 5pm. I know, it's just a pre-season game, but it's been a long off-season.....

I think Cootes might be playing

He is. We've also got Willander, Mancini and D-Petey who are expected to take big minutes and show management what they bring to the table. Could be interesting!

Apparently the game will be streamed on Canucks' website.

Ty Young doesn't look ready for NHL, just saying.

Barkov blew out his knee in practice and will probably miss the entire season

Hoglander has an ankle sprain and now listed as week-to-week

Anyone watch yesterday preseason game vs the Kracken? Was not really impressed with their game.

Period 1 wasn't great. Period 2 and 3 were much better.

MAF signed PTO with Pittsburgh to play 1 period of 1 preseason game (today) so he can retire as a Penguin. Pretty cool

he is such a likeable guy! A living legend.

They did a shootout. Nice send off

So much for minor injury, Hogs had surgery and is out 8-10 weeks now

Biggest contract in NHL history:

The Minnesota Wild signed star left wing Kirill Kaprizov to an eight-year, $136-million extension on Tuesday, giving him the richest contract in NHL history.

Kaprizov will count $17 million against the salary cap beginning next season. It's the highest annual average salary of any player since the league’s cap era began in 2005, surpassing Auston Matthews’ $13.25 million with Toronto. Alex Ovechkin’s 13-year, $124-million contract signed with Washington in 2008 was previously the highest total value.

Lots of money for someone who hasn't won anything or been past a 2nd(?) round... not saying that is his fault exactly, but if you're doubling the $ to him the rest of the team sure isn't going to get any better.

It makes me wonder how big a contract extension in terms of annual salary that McDavid will get when he signs with the Coilers.

Kaprizov did squat for this Minnesota team.

McDavid helped the Coilers go to back to back Stanley Cup Finals. He is arguably the best player in the world based on his career stats and skillset.

^ yah, I'm not getting that signing at all. Going to be one of those that ruins it for every other team, they must hate Minny right now.

Minny just ensured that they won't come anywhere close to sniffing the SC.

I did forget how much dead cap Minnesota has been dragging around for Parise and Suter… they still are for the next 3-4 seasons but at a much more playable $1.7M, it’s been in the teens in past years lol

They’ve still got $5M free this season.

Their goalies are extremely low cost right now. Boldy and Eriksson-Ek are cost controlled for the next 5 years too… could be worse!

does this mean fans can finally stop complaining about Petey's cap hit? lol

jk it's van, people will always complain no matter what :pokerface:

Lol, wow

McDavid is gonna have to sign for $20M+ now

Miller suffers a non-contact injury during one of the Rangers’ practices:

That’s a new injury terminology to me, why do they have to specify non-contact lol
