Many call on NHL to rename Lady Byng trophy to memorialize Johnny Gaudreau

Boston, MA

The Boston Bruins caught lightning in a bottle last season when they signed Danton Heinen to a professional tryout (PTO). This marked a return to the Bruins for Heinen, a fourth-round pick by the team in 2014. This PTO eventually led to a one-year contract for Heinen, who would outperform his $775,000 deal by just about every metric. He turned that one-year prove-it deal into a sizeable pay raise this offseason when signing a two-year, $4.5 million contract with the Vancouver Canucks. What many people don’t mention is that the Bruins also brought in Alex Chiasson on a PTO last offseason. Though the team didn’t sign him to a contract, it was still worth a spot in camp to see if there was a fit between player and organization.

Aurora, Colo. -- Angry Aurorans on social media poked fun at the local news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Mike Coffman, Aurora mayor, posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It contradicted comments made by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, who told the New York Post the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

The spring and summer of 2022 was a significant one for the Detroit Red Wings. Not only was that the first offseason where general manager (GM) Steve Yzerman invested significant money into improving the Red Wings in a meaningful way, but it was also the first time since 2014 that the organization hired a new head coach. Out went longtime head coach Jeff Blashill and in came Derek Lalonde, an assistant coach with the Tampa Bay Lightning who was originally hired by Yzerman during his time as GM of the Lightning.

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.
