Notes On Hockey Topics

from Larry Brooks of the New York Post, ... The Sabres make sense for Kane. If he is interested in winning a Cup, the Red Wings do not. I have heard a linkage with the Panthers. I’m even told by a trusted party that Kane is intrigued by the Maple Leafs, but the cap situation aside, is that what Toronto needs? More to the moral of this story, is Kane what the Rangers need? I don’t think so. The Blueshirts took their shot last year. I would be very surprised if they go back to the future. - Whenever I hear coaches — and it’s become an epidemic out there — talking about their teams “playing fast,” I invariably think that the best way to play fast is to have a fast team. And that “playing fast” has quickly become a league-wide euphemism for “we’re slow.” See what I did there? - Finally, Connor McDavid makes his magic at warp speed no one can duplicate, but at this moment in time, Jack Hughes is the Greatest Show on Ice. The race for the Art Ross and the Hart has been joined. more on the Patrick Kane topic and additional notes too...
