Elliotte Friedman: Re Jason Robertson negotiations/Stars: I do think he wants it to start with a 12; Rantanen got 12 million, I think at least wants 12 million; they might have to do some roster reconfiguration around that with some of the other salaries they have - NHL Now (5/1)

Manager Hinch on benches clearing, via @cmccosky:
"We play a really good brand of baseball here. That didn't feel like it. I'm not judging intent. But I know when you go out on the field in those confrontations, you usually feel like you are in your right. It didn't feel good being out there."

@joshawha @AlexLinsky4187 @MurphysLaw74 And they are keeping that same coach so not sure there. Really depends on Matthews for 2028 pic for the bruins. I don’t think this result changes the fact he’s 50/50
English
@AlexLinsky4187 @MurphysLaw74 How can you say that? Gimme some logic. Just about every leaf had a down year. Worst coach in the NHL and just got the #1 pick. Get a clue lol
English
#NHLBruins obviously would've loved to be picking at No. 6, but now have an unprotected first in 2028 from the #LeafsForever.

@TheMarkEvans94 @NHLRumourReport Hoping we get carels in the draft. But Robertson would make the bruins 10x better no matter how fast or slow he is
English
@chad_smith45 @NHLRumourReport Robertson is too slow. Bruins need speed.

Elliotte Friedman: Re Stars: When they add his [$12 million dollar extension] here, ish, that Jason Robertson's gonna sign for, it might be a problem for them to fit in other pieces, like Mavrik Bourque, so Dallas is gonna have some decisions to make - 32 Thoughts (5/1)

@Tyboy2387 @JakeButkowski If you tell me that then I sure must be. Wasn’t even going there told you to enjoy the second round bc you truly don’t know when u will be back. Ik u probably don’t watch as much hockey as I do. In fact I know u don’t but move on to Montreal or Tampa fans

What is with most NHL media downplaying McAvoy's lumberjack chop?
All they care about is a Benson slewfoot, which frankly, McAvoy deserved 😂 low hit on Malenstyn, slewfoot on Tage, elbow to Doans head... the list goes on
NHLMuse@NHL_Muse
What’d you guys think of this slew foot by Benson? Feels like he’s gotta get a few games.
English
@Tyboy2387 @JakeButkowski Ur an idiot. He didn’t follow through. That is a trip not a slewfoot. Benson took Mcavoy arm and kicked his legs out so he would hit his head. That’s the difference. But enjoy the second round man. Never know when u might be back.

David Pagnotta: Nashville, it sounds like anyway, that Tom Fitzgerald is a finalist for this [GM] position, frontrunner, however you wanna describe it; Scott White was tied to this as well; Brett Peterson; it sounds like they're getting there - Daily Faceoff Live (4/30)

Preseason counts with suspensions #NHLBruins
Joe Haggerty@HackswithHaggs
That’s not good news for the start of next season. Significant suspension may be incoming
English
@Savageboston @DougKyed He was developed my Joe Kim who spent a while with the patriots. I’m sure they got his approval before taking him. And he’s been with some great players so if Kim give the ok I’m excited for him
English
Patriots coaches are “ecstatic” with the Gabe Jacas draft selection.
Per: @DougKyed
“That’s why Patriots coaches, who spent a day with the 21-year-old pass rusher on a pre-draft visit, were “ecstatic” when the team’s front office traded up to select the four-year Illinois starter in the second round.”

Boston’s Charlie McAvoy has been offered an in-person hearing for slashing Buffalo’s Zach Benson. Date and time TBD.
English
@HockeyWatxcher @HackswithHaggs That’s if it happens in the preseason. I’m like 99% sure it has to be a regular season game
English
@HockeyWatxcher @HackswithHaggs Looking into it more I think it has to be regular season games unfortunately.
English
@chad_smith45 @HackswithHaggs Bingo, and McAvoy will not have to forfeit any salary for missing the games
English
@RealMattDolloff Think preseason counts but am trying to see if that’s true or not
English
Six or more games coming for McAvoy

@ConorRyan_93 Couldn’t it be served preseason. Not really sure and maybe you would know more. Kind of looking for an answer other then Google
English
Looks like Charlie McAvoy could be staring at a suspension to open next season.

@HockeyWatxcher @HackswithHaggs Gives the guy an extra rest. Now I’m not happy with Mcavoy bc of what he did all things considered but it’s all just a nothing burger. And player safety is making themselves look good without affecting their season.
English
@chad_smith45 @HackswithHaggs Correct. These reporters not nothing that is incredibly embarrassing
English
@Tyboy2387 @JakeButkowski Jeez man. I get being a homer but to not think there was anything wrong with that is crazy. He will get fined. And it was unnecessary.
English
@chad_smith45 @JakeButkowski Fine benson for what??? Lmao he literally isn’t going to get a fine he was already penalized for it mcavoy just decided to end that power play by acting like a complete fucking asshat
