Jeremy Laura: Wings vs. Isles,possible interesting tweak to CBA for AHL and CHL

With more prospects going to the NCAA, it seems inevitable that the CHL agreement will have to amend their standards on 19 year olds or else they will lose elite prospects to the NCAA who will have more control over the start of their careers. The PIT 2023 pick Brayden Yager is an example of a player that would likely benefit in the AHL instead of getting 2 pts./game in the WHL.

I was just touching base with my hockey bud, and apparently the Spittin’ Chiclets guys forwarded a quote (attributed to Brooks) that Wing may be talking to coach Q

I think that’s already heading in that direction. As soon as the NIL and revenue were settled by the courts, a few agents opened the complaint to the CHL. The rules aren’t new, but once $ was available in college Agents were all over it. That made way for other doors to be opened. The “Q” is already concerned with a lack of 1st round representation, now the CHL sees a shift coming. What I’m really interested to see is if players are shifted out of the NCAA with an influx from the CHL, will they choose the CHL or Europe? This is fascinating stuff, a lot of which is long overdue

Brooks again.......hmmm..... A click bait monster.

Well in that case, maybe I will make an exception.

And Bally' Sports is now officially FanDuel Sports Network

They approved Bowman so I can't see an issue with Quenneville coming back. Guys a fantastic coach, but his character is still in question.

Reading some news off of X today, someone mentioned 14 players were taken ahead of Mike Bossy in 1977, jeez it's just such an important part of the game, even more-so now in the cap era. They took John Tonelli in the second round too, guess who the top two points players from the 1977 draft? You guessed it, Bossy and Tonelli.

Yep, yesterday was the big “flip”. Trying to figure out how ESPN Bet feels about the change…

After the start of the season last year they cleared the rest of the crew. He’s available for sure. Some truly horrible things happen in pro sports and with celebrities that stay hidden. It’s heart breaking

It for sure is, but I think free agents and trades factor in huge too. You get your core and then build around it. I think Eichel said of Vegas, “there is no loyalty, but you know the goal.” LTIR needs to be addressed for sure
