Short Hockey Notes
from Matt Porter of the Boston Globe,
- The last coach to scratch Keith Yandle: Wayne Gretzky … Maybe Aaron Dell was trying to change the goalie karma in Buffalo, more than a decade after Milan Lucic ran Ryan Miller, when he blindsided an unsuspecting Drake Batherson. Batherson, the Senators’ All-Star rep (he was replaced by Brady Tkachuk), will miss a couple months with an ankle injury. Dell got a three-game suspension (Dell was placed on waivers today).
- Someday, I’d love to know how Linus Ullmark really felt while the TD Garden crowd was chanting “We want Tuukka” while he was in net for a 5-1 blowout of the Canadiens.
- Noted small-market critic Brad Marchand, wisecracking about the Coyotes’ stadium situation on Twitter: “Well… the only way they get 5000 fans at their games now is if they give 4500 away for free so (it) wouldn’t change much.”
