*** 2025-26 NHL Thread ***

As much as I like hockey, they should never be playing the Stanley Cup in June.

I think it’s been played in June every year since the early 90s. 91 maybe? Just going to get longer with players “needing” more days off between games.
 
OK. So that’s one thing that ESPN does well, the opening video to a series. That was awesome showcasing Bourque and then bring that into the failures these players and teams have seen.
 
Dallas Stars moving out to Plano:


Moving from downtown Dallas to 20 miles North of Dallas. Interesting choice

Of course, I still am not over the North Stars moving to Dallas. And Norm Green still sucks almost 35 years later

Agreed. F Norm and F Dallas.

Calling Plano "20 miles north of Dallas" is one of those things that's technically accurate, but spiritually misses the point.

That's not going to hurt their following one bit. From where that arena's going, you have another 20 miles before you're in the country, and those northern 'burbs are full of transplants from points north.
