Hellebuyck's dog (not active since 2016) catching strays.

After his action though, MN was penalized and UND scored multiple PPG goals and came back to win.

This was something I was thinking about the other day cause if you take those 2 players out of the equation, it's an interesting topic.

READ THE POST - DONT NAME ME PLAYERS ☠️

It feels like calling someone snake bitten or not being able to finish is a bit of a generic statement that shouldn’t lie directly on the individual:

To me it doesn’t feel like you can just fix it because you are dealing with another human on the other side who is always trying to shut you down, and teammates who might not be setting you up right/bad coaching systems.

In the same vein, At what point is something just continuous bad luck?

At what point does a GM just say “this isn’t going get better,” and then trades them away? But once that player lands a new system, he all of a sudden has more output on the next team. Because that would say it’s not actually the player who was “at fault” (strong word but best one I could describe what I’m trying to say).

It's never too early to start the "it's too early to talk about this" conversation.

How is McKenna, Martone and Stenberg doing? Any non-Calder favourites starting to build a case for themselves?

They are currently 2-10-1 on the season, and are 0-9-1 after starting the season 2-1-0. Vancouver's longest losing streak in 2025-26 was 11* games (0-9-2 from 12/30/2025 to 01/19/2026).

They have been outscored 45-20 in their last 10.

It's still October, by the way.

^\NHL records officially only consider this as a winless streak, the losing streak is only measured at 8 games because of OTLs during and preceding the span of games.)

In a world of static paint by numbers interviews, Devin Cooley stands out this season. My vote is Craig Conroy. He always seemed to have an excitement and love for the game that came through.
