Norris upper body injury, will miss a significant amount of time. Where have I heard this story before?

 C'mon…it's **entirely** possible it's something other than his shoulder.

I bet the NHLPA is not happy with McDavid right now.

4 year extension of the CBA today, with the announcement of an expanded 84 game season. In a world where pretty much everyone agrees the season is already too long, this makes perfect sense.

Two less preseason games, and I think it helps the scheduling math to guarantee home/away games between all 32 teams.  I'm surprised it took that long to get to this.

I'm okay with this as long as it doesn't lead to the 'loaf management' crap the NBA is known for.
