Reading Assignments

  • Sounds like a contract extension for Sebastian Aho is coming, perhaps before the start of training camp. (Good timing for an article today, too. Stay tuned around noon.) [NHL.com]
  • Petr Mrazek is looking sharp in his new team’s threads:
  • Former first-overall pick Bryan Berard is suing the NHL over brain injuries sustained during his career. [Yahoo Sports]
  • Bill Peters looooved his forechecking and puck possession, so it should come as no surprise that the Hurricanes were one of the best teams in the league in those categories. [The Athletic ($)]
  • Man...there’s really nothing going on. So...um...high school football starts tonight! Some good games too: Clayton at Garner, Wake Forest at Millbrook, Middle Creek at Rocky Mount (that one’s for Jamie), Knightdale at East Wake (that one’s for me since I’ll be calling it). If you’ve got nothing better to do, there are worse ways to enjoy your evening for $7 a ticket than supporting your local team!
