Dirty Dangle

Enjoying some ginger ales on the Fourth of July I see.

Prediction: New Jersey It's the Pens https://twitter.com/nhlsourcessay/status/219892017323458560

Some on Twitter were saying they were talking but didn't submit an offer.

Being reported that the Pens have submitted a contract offer, despite previous rumors.

Hudler has an offer on the table from the Canucks. Rangers and Habs are showing interest.

The Canadiens are coming in on January 30th! I went to the last game the Candiens came into the Joe and it was a blast. The crowd was amazing!

DId anybody else catch this?

Wasn't there another team that wanted JVR and the Flyers flatout said no?

Is there a swear filter now?

I don't know how else to say it, but the NHL needs to cut the s*** and just hand out the damn awards. The NHL is not thinking of its audience when it plans these awards shows. Don't have celebraties give out the awards, have current and former players give out the awards. Am I the only one thinking that Ted Lindsay should be the one handing out the Ted LIndsay Award? And stop with the lame ass jokes. This isn't the Oscars or the Golden Globes. The audience for the NHL Awards is narrower and more concerned with the actual awards than being "entertained." The show could easily be an hour long and provide a better product than what currently exists.

The Kings are skating around waiting for something to happen rather than trying to make something happen.

NJD/LAK: 4-2

Smith better watch his mouth. After all, he did slash Richards after the series winning goal.

First contact was shoulder-to-shoulder. Anything after that is incidental. Agreed.

So you'd want Lidstrom to openly challenge the captain of another team in the handshake line after what turned out to be a legal hit? Sorry, that is classless.

Thigh-on-thigh. Brown never changed his course or the position of his leg. Unfortunate but not illegal.

Did anyone else see Smith try to tomahawk Richards after the goal? The Coyotes are a bunch of sore losers.

Someone in here is angry. Lol!

Shane Doan being a ****** in the handshake line. Classless.

Kings win! Kings win! Bring on the whiny Coyotes now!

The linesmen have decided to join in on the horrible officiating. Not a knee-on-knee hit. Violent? Yes. Penalty? No.

PHX/LAK: 4-3 NYR/NJD: 4-2

The Caps had a few golden opportunities to seal the deal. 2 OT upcoming.

Rangers to the PP with 2:28 left in the first OT.
