newflyerinvero Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Well, it's American Thanksgiving. Usually this means that teams whom are out of the playoff picture stay out and those whom are in, stay in. Only on the rarest of occasions do teams slide out and others get in. So, in each division, I'll list whom the current leaders are: Atlantic: Tampa Bay. Metro: New Jersey. Central: St. Louis. Pacific Las Vegas. Teams whom are surprisingly out, even if they're 2 points or many points: Chicago, Anaheim, Minnesota, Edmonton, Montreal, Buffalo, Any other surprises? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NHL is making us 'guess' what the injury is even though for the most part, visually it looked like it was a concussion. I remember Ken Hitchcock sometime last month mention that it's about time to eliminate those games with the 'upper body/lower body' stuff. They have 'body' injuries. .

Gregory Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 The league has suspended Ducks forward Andrew Cogliano for 2 games after his interference penalty and illegal check to the head on Kings forward Adrian Kempe during Saturday night's game in Los Angeles. This will end Cogliano's ironman streak, which started as soon as he entered the NHL in 2007, at 830 consecutive games. He will also forfeit over $32,000 in salary.
