Neal replaces Ovechkin as an All-Star

It looks like the Real Deal finally gets to be an All-Star thanks to Ovechkin choosing not to go.

Neal has more goals, assists and points. Kudos to Ovechkin for clearing the path for a real all-star.

I’m not sure why, but I actually laughed out load at that comment.

Neal is not a cheap shot artist AND proud of it.

He does lead the league in shots.

JStaal to LTIR

anyone know why the Pens moved Staal to LTIR?

i’ve heard it was to bank some cap space
and also heard that LTIR doesn’t permit any cap relief
and i’m leery of this injury already

I’m guessing maybe they decided he needs surgery on it?

If on ltir they are allowed to go over cap the same amount as Staals cap hit…so it helps with call ups,etc…I wouldn’t read too much into it

Agreed. He qualifies for it and should be able to have his previous time injured be retroactive. Just some wiggle room for call ups.
