Islanders acquire Johnny Boychuk from the Bruins for a 2015 2nd, 2015 3rd, and 2016 conditional 2nd. So they have no picks in the first 3 rounds of next year's draft...but man Boychuk should be a really nice boost.

They also grabbed Nick Leddy from Chicago.

TORONTO - It was a little like rubbing salt in the wound for the Maple Leafs. Down 5-2 with a little less than eight minutes remaining Saturday night, they had to watch as a Toronto jersey came flying onto the ice at Air Canada Centre.

One fan, unable to throw in the towel, opted to give up his jersey instead.

"When a fan does that, they're frustrated — as are we," said Toronto captain Dion Phaneuf. "We do not like to put forth the effort we did (tonight) on any night, especially in front of our fans. We take responsibility for not giving them what they want. They wants to see wins, as do we.

"We want to win hockey games but tonight we didn't display enough and do enough little things to win a game. We got beat all over the ice."

Toronto also lost its home opener, 4-3 to Montreal on Wednesday.

The Penguins did not miss the fan's statement Saturday.

"That's always really bad when you see that," said winger Pascal Dupuis. "You don't want any jerseys on the ice, any team. That's no class, no respect, obviously."

Sidney Crosby, remembering the days when the Penguins were at the other end of the standings, said he felt for the Leafs after the show of fan disaffection.

"It doesn't help, but obviously the fans are going to make their opinions known or show what they think, but it definitely doesn't help things and I'm sure with it being so early, it's not fun to see that in your home rink." he said. "I think you kind of feel for guys.

"As a player playing in your home rink, I don't think you ever want to see that, but again fans are here and they have high expectations."
I caught pieces of this game at work last night, and every time I stopped to watch I just saw a continuan of the end of last season Its sad that two games in this is happening, but I don't really blame the fans. .

Not much hockey talk going on here lately.

Any thoughts on the McDavid hand injury.

Basically, people are complaining that he fought - because he hurt his hand. But if he had not have punched the glass and hurt his hand, all the articles the next morning would have been praising him for his toughness and sticking up for himself.

TPWW hockey is going well, but I'm having second thoughts after I dropped Kyle Turris from my team. Too late though, one of the non-TPWW guys scooped him up. My potential loss.

A no-win situation for sure, but there was still no way his teammates should have let him fight.... someone should have jumped in and taken over the fight, no matter "how much of a pussy" it makes McDavid look like....

Pat Quinn dead at 71

Quote:
Pat Quinn, who spent more than four decades in the NHL as a player, head coach and general manager, has died at the age of 71.

The Hockey Hall of Fame and the Western Hockey League's Vancouver Giants on Monday confirmed that Quinn passed away on Sunday night at Vancouver General Hospital after a long illness.

Quinn was a co-owner of the Giants. He was the Hall of Fame's chairman of the board as well as a longtime member of its selection committee.

"We are deeply saddened by the passing of Pat Quinn”, said Jim Gregory, vice-chairman of the Hockey Hall of Fame, in a statement. "Pat is one of hockey's most respected individuals whose lifetime involvement as a player, coach and executive has made an indelible mark on the game, and our thoughts and prayers are with [Quinn's wife] Sandra and all of Pat's family and friends at this extremely difficult time."

Quinn, who was born in Hamilton, Ont., played parts of nine seasons as a defenceman in the NHL. "The Big Irishman" scored only 18 goals but was recognized for his imposing size and toughness.

After his playing career, Quinn was an NHL head coach for 20 seasons with five different teams, most recently the Edmonton Oilers in the 2009-10 season. He also served stints behind the bench with Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Vancouver and Toronto.

Quinn was the head coach of the Canadian men's team that won the Olympic title in 2002 in Salt Lake City, ending a 50-year gold-medal drought. He also guided Team Canada to the world junior championship in 2009.

Pat Quinn was responsible for the looney being placed under the ice in Salt Lake and that cost Team USA #1 the gold in 2002. He shoulda won a cup in Toronto though. He had Mats Sundin!

Blues signed Martin Brodeur to a 1 year deal.

NHL fined the Kings $100,000 for violating the suspension given to Slava Voynov. Voynow got in trouble because of a domestic violence case and one of the terms didn't allow him on-ice practice time.

'Young Guns' and Euro All-Star team to be featured in World Cup of Hockey
By Rick Westhead

Hockey Puck
Hockey Puck, TSN

NHL and NHLPA executives are expected to announce on Friday the details of the rekindled World Cup of Hockey, a tournament that will feature eight teams, including two unconventional ones.

Besides Canada, the U.S., Russia, Sweden, the Czech Republic and Finland, the league and union will announce a European All-Star team will participate. That team will be stocked with players who come from countries other than those participating as nations.
Also, the tournament will feature a team with North American players under the age of 23.

An executive with an NHL sponsor confirmed the details to TSN.
The tournament will also feature a best-of-three final, which will help to drive up the broadcast and sponsor rights for the tournament both in North America and Europe.
The National Hockey League and its players association have told team executives they hope to generate between $75 million and $100 million from the rekindled World Cup of Hockey.

A person familiar with the matter told TSN that the tournament, which is scheduled to be held in September 2016, will raise about half its revenue from the sale of broadcast and internet streaming rights. The NHL and NHLPA have predicted those rights may garner close to $50 million.

It's a gamble to spend so much on a tournament like the World Cup when there's no guarantee Team Canada will advance beyond the round robin portion. But if it does, there could be a big payoff in TV ratings. The final of the World Cup will be a best-of-three format, TSN has learned.

Besides TV rights, the NHL and NHLPA will also sell sponsorship rights to the World Cup. They anticipate selling to eight premier corporate sponsors and negotiating deals of at least $1.5 million in each category, a source told TSN.

The NHL and NHLPA will also garner revenue from ticket and merchandise sales. However, it's expected that the NHL and the Players' Association will have to pay Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment at least $5 million for hosting the three-week tournament.
While executives with the Montreal Canadiens wanted to host some of the World Cup games at the Bell Centre, the NHL and its players union decided to host all of the games in Toronto. That way, if the tournament is a success, they could auction off the rights to host the games in 2019, perhaps, to the city that offers the best revenue guarantee - be it Montreal, New York, Stockholm, Moscow, or another city.

To be sure, there are still many unanswered questions about how much profit the NHL and players union will generate from the World Cup.

They need to pay for insurance for all of the players.

Typically, the NHL and the Players' Association buy premiums that offer better coverage than simply career-ending policies. Payouts are rare, but they do happen. The Islanders' John Tavares, for instance, was covered by an insurance policy when he was injured during the Winter Olympics earlier this year in Sochi, Russia. The Islanders were compensated by an insurance company for the time he missed.

It's unclear how much insurance will cost the NHL and NHLPA.

Then Hockey Canada president Bob Nicholson said last August that it would cost at least $1 million simply to pay for insurance for the 47 Canadian players invited to Team Canada workouts in advance of the Winter Olympics.

NHL player agent Allan Walsh said some NHL players have been skeptical over whether it's a good idea to steer away from the "national team" concept.

"Some players believe this should be limited to players playing for their country," Walsh told TSN. "What are you playing for if it's "Team Young Guns" or European All Stars? What are you playing for? That's a problem. It's an issue."

Walsh said featuring a young guns team particularly could lead to lopsided scores.
"The downside is that team gets pounded," Walsh said. "I don't think it would have an impact on the player's psychology or career - just an impact on the legitimacy of the team in the tournament, when people sit back and say whether this kind of team was a good or bad idea."

Still, Walsh and other agents said there could be a great payoff for the league from marketing a team built around young stars like Nathan McKinnon, Connor McDavid and Jonathan Drouin.

Walsh said that while some fans have called for the NHL and NHLPA to include teams from Slovakia or Slovenia, that might not be practical, since the tournament is run by the league and its players association - both of which want to use the event to build the profile of their own players, not those playing in leagues overseas.
