It is Wednesday, my dudes.
Yesterday was a surprisingly news-y day in the hockey world, with Pekka Rinne retiring, the Predators possibly leaving Mat Duchene exposed during the Expansion Draft, Gabriel Landeskog and the Avalanche supposedly far apart on an extension, and the Minnesota Wild’s buy-out fever.
The latter was probably the biggest news in terms of unexpected things, and it led to the sharing of a surprising stat (or surprising to me, at least).
I can’t remember where I saw it, but I read on Twitter that Zach Parise was extremely high up on the list of highest career earners in the NHL, which caught me off guard.
