Here are all the links from around the hockey world, and what I’m reading while thoroughly enjoying the Luke Cage series on Netflix.
*A young defenseman that the Bruins took a pass on in the first round of last summer’s draft, Jakob Chychrun, is earning rave reviews in Arizona Coyotes camp. I think the B’s did the right thing taking Charlie McAvoy instead, but Bruins fans will be all over it if Chychrun becomes a rookie stud for the Coyotes this season.
*A few resolutions just in time for the new NHL season from the man with the hockey plan, Down Goes Brown.
*It was a tearful speech of appreciation when Marc Savard had his number retired by the Oshawa Generals this past weekend.
*The New Jersey Devils are out to prove people wrong, and make a big move in the Eastern Conference this season.
*PHT writer and FOH (Friend of Haggs) Mike Halford has Radko Gudas going free without a hearing after clobbering Jimmy Vesey with a preseason hit.
*Kevin Allen and the USA Today have the Bruins once again narrowly missing the Stanley Cup playoffs this season.
Boston Bruins
*For something completely different: the Haggerty household had a pretty similar reaction to Ben Affleck when he got the update on the Patriots score on Sunday.
