from Larry Brooks of the New York Post,


- The contempt spilling out of Rocky Wirtz’s mouth with every word he uttered at that already infamous town hall last week wasn’t aimed as much as the journalists attempting to do their jobs but at his team’s own fan base.

Because when the principal owner of the disgraced Blackhawks organization said that he would provide answers about the organization’s response to the Kyle Beach scandal and cover-up only to those who “work in the company,” I am assuming very few people who actually buy tickets to the team’s games “work in the company.”...

- So Bettman said on Friday that there would be a very small drop-off, if any, in the amount of revenue generated by the Coyotes it they play the next handful of seasons as a temporary tenant of Arizona State University’s 5,000-seat rink while awaiting construction of a new structure in Tempe.

What?

That seems to be as good a reason as any to finally put an end to Gary’s Folly and get the perennially troubled franchise out of the desert.

- don’t know, maybe it would be a little bit easier for the NHL to “market its stars,” as the saying goes, if Connor McDavid didn’t have a scowl on his face essentially every time he’s on camera for an interview.

And if others see charisma in Auston Matthews, well, I guess I’ll have to take their word for it.
