NHL Thread Because There Isn't An NHL Thread

The NHL will reintroduce its "Reverse Retro" jersey series next season, according to The Athletic's Sean Shapiro.

The uniforms will feature new designs rather than recirculate last season's threads, Shapiro adds.

The NHL introduced the line of jerseys for the shortened 2020-21 campaign. It marked the first time the league had included every team for an alternate jersey rollout.


Each team's "Reverse Retro" sweater was a play on a throwback jersey while including a modern twist. They were worn multiple times throughout the campaign.

There is no confirmed date for when the jerseys will be revealed.
 

Lol that Toffoli pic with the falling oiler is perfect 😂
The Seattle Kraken have signed leading scorer Jared McCann to a five-year contract extension worth $5 million per season, the team announced Tuesday.

McCann was scheduled to hit restricted free agency at season's end.

More to come.
Not that we are playoff contenders anytime soon, but this is a smart move with who we have now. Hopefully Francis makes big moves during trade window to shore up on defense…😩
 
The St. Louis Blues and Carolina Hurricanes are apparently among the latest teams considered serious contenders to acquire Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun ahead of the March 21 trade deadline.

"At this point, eight teams are seriously in the chase for Jakob Chychrun," TSN's Darren Dreger reported on Tuesday's "Insider Trading."

"It's Florida, it's L.A., it's Boston, it's St. Louis, it's Carolina, it's Anaheim among the primary suitors."


The Panthers, Kings, Bruins, and Ducks were among six teams considered interested in Chychrun in a January report.

Chychrun finished 10th in Norris Trophy voting last campaign after leading all NHL defensemen with 18 goals. He's in the midst of a down season with 16 points in 44 games. However, his underlying numbers over a three-year sample size remain stellar:

The Coyotes are reportedly asking for a return similar to what the Buffalo Sabres received for Jack Eichel earlier this season. The Sabres traded Eichel and a 2023 third-round pick to the Vegas Golden Knights for Alex Tuch, Peyton Krebs, a 2022 first-round selection, and a conditional 2023 second-round pick.

Chychrun, 23, is signed for three more seasons at a $4.6-million cap hit, per CapFriendly. Arizona selected him 16th overall at the 2016 NHL Draft.
