calling this a slash is a major stretch
NGL this is perhaps the most clear video of this Caufield slashes his stick and it breaks 100% a penalty, it wasnt due to a lift or hit on the boards as others suggested

This is why refs need video review
Hughes sold the slashing call to ref when he just stopped playing after his stick broke. Players should just stop playing now when an opponent touches his stick and it breaks. #Habs

Huge news!!
Colin Campbell says discussion in #NHL GM Meeting today revolved around video assisted review with communication direct to referees to be able to amend calls like friendly fire high-sticking, etc. Reaction from GMs was warm. Potential vote in March to implement for 2027-28.

Fun Fact: Kirk Cousins is being paid by THREE teams in 2026. This man's agent is a full demon.

This might make a little more sense if Jake Allen, who is very capable , doesn't have 11 losses against the Jets in regulation… The most of any team in the league for him #notreallyanalytics
The #NJDevils announce that Connor Hellebuyck won't start Tuesday's game in Winnipeg, citing a team decision that would reduce their odds of winning the game.

Great point that is not discussed a lot in reference to Canadian NHL Teams.
Agreed. A dollar of cap space is worth the same in every market. Florida's tax break belongs to the player, not the team. What surprises me is how nobody talks about the RCA. Canadian teams can put part of a player's salary into a Retirement Compensation Arrangement. Once he retires outside Canada, he withdraws it at roughly 25%. Net result: the same tax as "no tax" Florida, sometimes less. And far less than New York, Massachusetts or California. But sure, keep calling Canada a tax nightmare. #WeAreGoldStar!

FIVE POINT NIGHT for Michael Hage...1-4-5. Now 4-16-20 in 9 games. Michigan wins in OT on Valentini (@utahmammoth) tuck. Hage is an obvious Hobey Baker candidate & ready for the NHL. (@CanadiensMTL 1st rounder)

Worth mentioning this: I’m told Kucherov plans to keep playing for the Lightning while this situation plays out.

"It hits on a lot of SPECULATIVE, levels" Jeff Marek could see a world where Nikita Kucherov becomes a Montreal Canadien next July 1st 👀 @JeffMarek | @hockeyaccent1 | #GoHabsGo

Jeff Marek on The Sheet Podcast about a wild prediction regarding Kucherov & the #Habs: “There are more Russian players on the horizon that are coming to the Montreal Canadiens, to say nothing about player mentor for Demidov. [...] The more that I think about this again, if Tampa can't, and maybe Julien BriseBois can turn around tomorrow and sign him & this conversation goes nowhere. But if there's a team that you're looking at for Kucherov, if he gets there and doesn't sign with Tampa... I think A: he wants to play with smart players, B: I think he wants to win [...]” #GoHabsGo #GoBolts #NHL

If Larkin is refusing to play, and not being sat by Detroit for asset mgmt reasons, the Red Wings should suspend him without pay. The notion that a player could refuse to play after a trade request; receive full pay & count to cap is absurd. The Red Wings owe him nothing.
There were talks in the the last 24 hours between Larkin's camp and the Red Wings, both last night and again this morning, and what was communicated from the agents to Detroit was that Larkin feels he's given the team ample time since his trade request in May to get a deal done. Larkin has had enough, so decision was made he won't play tonight nor for foreseable future hoping a trade materializes. Fluid situation still. Red Wings circling back to teams with interest, etc., as talks escalate.
