A question I have to ask…
I’ve been watching a bit of the NHL pre-season and the new hockey rules. No crosschecking in the crease. No holding or pinning to the boards on the cycle. No waterskiing in pursuit. It’s all about speed and positioning now.
I like it. I love the speed, the openness for the offense, forcing defensemen to play defense instead of a carpet or a lumberjack.
But I gotta ask: why did Chris Chelios bother to come back? Or Bryan Marchment? Do either of those guys stand a chance to do anything but take penalties this season?
update: talked to someone at the sharks game over the weekend who knows Marchment, and they told me Toronto took a look and sent him home. So it looks like Bryan’s days in the NHL are over.
