Looks like the NHL is looking into mandating neck guards due to the recent Adam Johnson tragedy.

Also, the Senators have to forfeit a future first round draft pick for their role in a voided trade that almost saw former Hurricane, Evgenii Dadonov, traded to the Ducks from the Golden Knights.

NHL wants to make them mandatory. Bettman put the puck in the NHLPA’s court. If they don’t push back we will see neck protectors next year, perhaps even later this season. 

If the players push back sounds like the NHL will do the same thing they did with helmets, visors, etc. Any vet is exempt, anyone new is mandatory. 
 

The biggest fan pushback I’m seeing is basically highschool, ncaa and up don’t require them so why should the NHL. 
 

Huh? Why would they have to forfeit?

It looks like the Penguins organization is already mandating neck protectors for their AHL and ECHL teams and are highly encouraging their NHL players to wear them.

As for the Senators, apparently they traded Dadonov to Vegas and made no mention of his trade clause. Vegas then later tried to trade Dadonov to the Ducks but was alerted that he has a NTC and the Ducks were on it.

Woah… going all the way to the AHL for a coach. 
 

Sounds like the GM and the HC got into it and the owner picked the GM… fans are pissed. 

Glad we don't have those problems here.

The Don and The Bod have a mutual respect that makes for a pretty seamless working relationship.

Based off of interviews with Dundon, sounds like they have each other's back when it comes to ownership. I remember Wads make a few comments to the media during Rod's contract situation in support of his coach(es)!

    • I mean, 40 year olds that grew up on other teams.....simply aren't the same as people that were passed down a team for generations in their family.  When I was kid, my favorite player was Darrell Greene.  Because my team was the Skins.  If the Panthers suck, I can just watch the NFL at large.  It is what it is.  I adopted the Panthers because they were the local team.  The Panthers and the Browns simply aren't going to have the same fanbases right now.  Shouldn't be expected.  And most of the real purchasing power is with people who didn't grow up with the Panthers.  The money isn't with a 19 year olds.  and if the Hurricanes were less successful, people wouldn't be hyping the Raleigh fanbase as much.  But I can concede that is slightly different, as hockey isn't big in the south so most in the area haven't switched over from other teams.  It's their introduction to the sport.  Which makes hockey a little unique as sport.  If you have Raleigh a random MLB team that sucked......I don't that folks could get away with claiming Raliegh fans are "built different" than Charlotte folks. 
    • They won 15 games that season. Fans were going crazy as the year progressed. Cam just fed the crowds like he always did. I went to every playoff game that year and you are absolutely wrong. Win and fans come out of the woodwork to get wild. Crap take. 6years of losing and a 7th loaded up is the fan problem in that stadium. Pre-Cam was the wine and cheese crowd but they hated the winning crowd. Too loud and they stand too much. Winning changed those dynamics as quickly as losing did afterwards.
