The Seattle ___________. What would you name the new Seattle NHL Franchise?!
And with 16 teams in each conference, should the NHL consider any wildcard play-in games like the MLB?

ICYMI, Washington Capitals forward, Tom Wilson, “ran into a lion in the jungle” last Tuesday, according to Ryan Reeves. Kus thought the hit was “street justice” while Schwartz thought it was dirty. But you reap what you sow, right??
Which led the boys to discuss, is there still room in the game for getting “Kronwalled?”
