The catch-all thread is back!

Some good entertainment last night aside from our poop-show game


Shesterkin scores a goalie goal.

Nurse crosschecks Matt Tkachuk in the back of the head and also shoves Barkov that makes Barkov fall awkwardly onto his leg to potentially mess up his knee or ankle.

Curious what people think of the NHL's decision to officially consolidate the old Winnipeg Jets with the new Winnipeg Jets:

https://www.nhl.com/jets/news/jets-and-nhl-announce-consolid ation-of-winnipeg-jets-history


This bothers me probably more than it should, since I object to "making up history". The old and new Winnipeg Jets "are" different franchises, so you can't just wave your magic wand and make them the same franchise--which is what they are doing.

It actually has other connotations as well. For example Shane Doan has always been one of the rare players to play a long successful career with one franchise--but now that they've arbitrarily decided that the Phoenix Coyotes are a "different" franchise he (officially) loses that distinction.
