Habs/Sens, Myers Suspended, Pacioretty for Masterton, Thoughts and More

Alexander Radulov - Russia v USA - IIHF World Championship 
Morning Hockey Fans.

Before we move on to our A.M news, a few random thoughts about the NHL for your consideration:

- To General Managers complaining about Alexander Radulov's potential return to Nashville: Boo Hoo. He was under contract with the team. Still is. He should be allowed to play for the Predators without any sort of restrction. Just because Nashville terrifies you as a team already does not make this any less the case.

- On the Radulov issue, does anyone here actually feel bad for the Red Wings — who apparently have complained loudly about this issue at the Board of Governors meeting? Didn't think so.

- Somehow, its like the league believes that increasing scoring is the only way to insure their game is entertaining. Right. Because I want to see 5-4 every night.

- The Ringette line and the removal of two line passes are silly. Here is a bold idea: enforce the rules that are already in your book and, otherwise, stop tinkering. The Canadiens stink and I am still plenty entertained this year.

- Am I the only one who does not think Ilya Bryzgalov's hot play — he was four shutouts in his last five games — will not translate to the post-season?
