Can’t wait to see him play for a team that does not feature one of the most terrifying NHLers in history. Read more

He had zero penalty minutes coming into the series. His penalty in Game 2 allowed Columbus to tie the game on the power play...and his penalty last night allowed Columbus to score the game-winner on the power play. With the Blue Jackets rolling on special teams, Boston can’t afford even “regular” pest shit from… Read more
