  • Save the Date for the Lack of Player Safety Dance
    Jan 5 2024

    Special edition:

    Wpg's Cole Perfetti live mic confirms Wild's Ryan Hartman's intent to injure.

    The back-story of Kirill Kaprizov's injuries over two szns as Minnesota try to justify it. The divisional rivals, media and fan bases lit up over the escalating match-ups continue to amp up.

    Arizona's Jason Zucker gets a 3-game suspension for a hit after the initial Nick Cousins one goes uncalled?

    How little the NHL's player safety department has for hits from behind and cross-checks has resulted in players taking the issue into their own hands and only it seems as per usual - backwards - is the NHL then suspending the retaliation not the initial play.
