Late in the third period of a 4-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins, Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand lost his cool.

During a skirmish in front of Tristan Jarry‘s net for the Penguins, Marchand skated back through the crease and poked his stick at Jarry’s facemask, an incident which resulted in seven minutes of penalty time for Marchand.  With less than 30 seconds left in regulation, Marchand’s greater concern is potential discipline from the NHL’s department of player safety, where he has a lengthy record — including a three-game suspension earlier this season.

Yup.  He should get time off!

Boston Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron left Tuesday’s game against the Pittsburgh Penguins during the third period following a collision with goon,  Sidney Crosby.  The incident occurred about midway through the final frame as Crosby skated into Bergeron, who was not carrying the puck at the time and fell backward and hit his head against the boards. Bergeron stayed down until the whistle blew and was assisted off the ice and back to the locker room.  No penalty was called on the play although Crosby was sent to the box for roughing about a minute later.

I sure hope the Oilers miss the playoffs and / or Kane screws up again. 
He just comes across as an entitled millionaire hockey player  who only cares about himself.

Oilers lost again! - 2 in a row. You may get your wish. Unless we get a high end prospect in trade, I hope they miss too.

The Arizona Coyotes may have found a new home.  No, this is not a recording.  According to PHNX Sports' Craig Morgan, the Coyotes are reportedly in advanced talks with Arizona State University to use the school's new multi-purpose arena as their temporary home for the next three to four years while the organization searches for permanent lodging. 

The Arizona Coyotes have been given approval to make Arizona State University's ice facility their home rink for the next three years. Bend over backwards for the U.S. markets.

The Washington Capitals have placed Dennis Cholowski on waivers according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, the second time he’s found himself there this season. The Capitals claimed Cholowski from the Seattle Kraken at the beginning of the season and now he could be on his way to another team.

The 23-year-old played just seven games for the Capitals during his stint in Washington, averaging fewer than 14 minutes of ice time whenever he did get into the lineup. It’s been a dramatic fall-off for a player that was selected 20th overall in 2016 and quickly made his way to the NHL. In 2018-19, Cholowski played 52 games as a rookie for the Detroit Red Wings, but has just 59 in the three years since.

The Seattle Kraken claimed defenceman Dennis Cholowski off waivers from the Washington Capitals on Wednesday.  The move marks the second straight day the Kraken have claimed a player off waivers after adding Austin Czarnik from the New York Islanders on Tuesday.  Cholowski, 23, was selected by the Kraken in the expansion draft last summer, but was waived prior to the season. He was claimed by the Capitals, posting one assist in seven games.  A first-round pick in the 2016 NHL Draft, Cholowski has 10 goals and 28 points in 111 career games.

Edmonton Oilers Duncan  Keith is in concussion protocol and has some upper-body soreness after falling hard into the boards in Wednesday’s loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. Keith got his feet tied up with Blackhawks forward Sam Lafferty and went into the boards.

The Oilers’ 38-year-old blue-liner laid on the ice before getting helped off, and he went straight to the dressing room. In 34 games this season, Keith has one goal and 14 points.
