The NHL world is still reeling after the news that the St. Louis Blues tendered offer sheets to Edmonton Oilers’ restricted free agents Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway. Offer sheets can be a tricky way for general managers to benefit from another team’s desperation. The Oilers are pressed against the salary cap, so the short-term, multi-million dollar offers have forced general manager (GM) Stan Bowman to reallocate funds. Cody Ceci’s $3.25 million cap hit has already been shipped to San Jose, giving the Oilers some breathing room. Bowman has until Aug. 20 to match the offers.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.

When the Arizona Coyotes entered the 2022 NHL Draft, there was an agenda: find a franchise player. Of course, the unpredictability of the draft lottery blazed bright as general manager Bill Armstrong and the scouts had to adjust from drafting to what would’ve been two and then fell back to three. They then took Pittsburgh native Logan Cooley, who thus far has shown why he was worth every ounce of that pick.
