    How the hell did Detroit pass on Quinn Hughes?

    If Zadina doesn’t fall to them, Holland would have taken Evan Bouchard, who he has at Edmonton

    Didn't get the opportunity to watch nor have read anything yet: Did Vancouver manhandle St. Louis or what? Thanks.

    Wasn’t this an Yzerman pick?

    No
    Seider was Yzerman’s first No.1 pick
    A lot of people wanted Holland to draft Hughes but the lack of size scared him off

    the Wings aren’t the only team that will regret passing on him.

    'Nucks' speed.

    It's hard for the Blues to rough anyone up when they can't catch them.

    Blues played fine. Markstrom outplayed Binnington by a wide margin.

    Marc Bergevin has announced Claude Julien was hospitalized last night with chest pains. Kirk Muller to take over on a temporary basis.

    First off, get better, Claude.

    Now, back on topic ... why is it that players are always "unfit to play" - be it a hangnail, headache, torn ACL or contracting COVID-19 - yet we get a detailed up date on Claude Julien?

    Do better, NHL. Much better.

    Because players might not want it known to opponents which body parts to attack.

    Coaches don't have that issue.

    correct. That’s why injuries are mostly “upper” “lower” body injuries.
