All future drafts could probably be put on hold until further notice.

Is it really too much to ask for Gary to solve some geopolitical issues? It’s not like he’s busy.

The Department of Player Safety taking on this task would be quite the fustercluck. Wait, maybe they have taken it on already.

With a name like Nazem Khadri he'll probably be rounded up by ICE and sent to El Salvador before he plays a home game.

Vegas uses a pretty rare five forward power-play on their unit one, Shea Theodore and Hanifin are on unit two so powerplay time will be limited for Rasmus, at least to start. He did get an assist in his debut last night on an empty net goal by Stone. Still ended up with 21 minutes of ice time, just a minute behind the leaders Theodore and Stone.

Rasmus in the power play has always been a forced deployment in my opinion. He was only ever put there because we needed/wanted a right hand shot D on PP1 for the formation they were running with Johnny and Tkachuk. It’s not his strong suit.

Markstrom and Hanifin were more the issue than Andersson.
I’m all-in on cheering for Vegas for the remainder of this season. Thought what Kolesar did as they were skating on to the ice to rip that sell-out jersey out of the fans hand was great team stuff.
Go Knights Go.

Rasmus is going to wish he had considered that he'd just be paired with Hanifin again.

If not, then the question asks when it changed from a heap to a non-heap.

Yeah, whenever the Flames had a better option Rasmus was on the second unit (if that). But the point has never been a strong spot for the Flames power play. Even Giordano wasn’t that great at it.

There's forest green, emerald green, hunter green, olive green and if you're really special you get chartreuse.

You may want to check with your lawyer on that
Absence from the USA more than a year can be considered abandonment. Some people say you can’t leave the US more than 6 months to be safe
Green card is meant for intention to be resident
