Getting ready for the 2026-27 NHL regular season with a jam-packed episode this week:

  • Zegras gets a penalty for tucking his jersey -- the first time it's been called in 13 years!
  • Canucks' Chytil injured after run-in with ref
  • Kraken's Ottavainen gets his revenge on the Flames' Othmann, picking up 2, 5, and 10, including an instigator penalty
  • Caps' Cristall gets the first fine of the preseason for a crosscheck to the face
  • Three suspensions to start the season as McAvoy and Grieg carry over, and Hellebuyck is a no-show
  • Soucy's controversial hit takes out Zellweger
  • Sens' Blais hits Leafs' Blankenberg, then Brisson steps in but avoids an instigator penalty
  • Blackhawks' Spellacy gets tossed for a headbutt, but no fine or suspension
  • Refs rack up the miles last season - 3.1 million of 'em
