I wonder if he was considered redundant, that is, you "don't need or want" two players like Makar on the same team.

I'm not sure that's their thinking, but that sounds like something "hockey men" would think makes sense to them.

I also wonder if Bouchard would be considered if Toews opts out.

2 minutes in tonight he drops the gloves. He got rocked but obviously the message was sent and received and he did what he should have done against Colorado.

Also, this is why you don’t give energy guys 8 year deals. TF MIA tonight.

They lost 9-1. I wonder if McDavid has ever been in a game where his team gave up 9 goals before.

Ironically, I posted my own FUD there. 🧐
