It’s been a long week.
Predators 1, Wild 6: Hynes beats old team
The Nashville Predators hosted the Minnesota Wild and new head coach John Hynes, as well as a large and very vocal group of Wild fans in the arena, tonight. The Preds’ win streak came to an end with…
If you turned off last night’s game: it didn’t get better.
Jarry scores goalie goal, Penguins rally past Lightning | NHL.com
Also makes 39 saves for Pittsburgh; Kucherov has 2 assists for Tampa Bay, which loses 3rd in row
GOALIE GOAL!
I love the fact that the recap starts “Tristan Jarry scored and made 39 saves, helping the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 4-2 win” as if both are just a part of a goalie’s job.

Jack Eichel had one goal and two assists as the Vegas Golden Knights defeated the Vancouver Canucks 4-1 on Thursday night at Rogers Arena.

Well-timed Zadorov trade nets Flames flexibility and youth moving forward
It’s important to understand there’s more the Flames accumulated than just two picks from Vancouver. What Conroy has done is set himself up to get younger, get a look at more of his prospects and set himself up for the bigger decisions at hand.
I guess?
Leafs D Giordano breaks finger, week-to-week
Maple Leafs defenseman Mark Giordano is week-to-week with a broken finger, according to coach Sheldon Keefe.
Ouch.
Kraken’s Schwartz on IR after taking shot off foot
Kraken center Jaden Schwartz was put on injured reserve after taking a shot of his foot earlier this week.
Also ouch.
