NHL Conditioning Assignment Rules

 

13.8 Conditioning Loan. Unless a Player consents, he shall not be Loaned on a Conditioning Loan to a minor league club. Such Conditioning Loan shall not extend for more than fourteen (14) consecutive days. The Commissioner may take whatever steps he deems necessary to investigate the circumstances under which a Player is Loaned on a Conditioning Loan. If the Commissioner has reason to believe or determines that the Club has used the Conditioning Loan to evade the Re-Entry Waivers, or otherwise Circumvent any provision of this Agreement, he may take such disciplinary action against the Club, as he deems appropriate. The Player shall continue, during the period of such Conditioning Loan, to receive the same Paragraph 1 NHL Salary, and be entitled to the same benefits, that he would have received had he continued to play with the Club.

Very interesting, he's definitely on the block now. It's even tougher he said he wanted the play while the Hawks are in their best stretch of hockey in over a year.

The Blackhawks have officially activated Patrick Sharp, and assigned Joakim Nordstrom.

Maple Leafs’ Bernier calls Nelson Mandela ‘one of the most known athletes’

 

Oops.

They should have never let Toews back on the ice after that hit.

Would that be NHL concussion #4 for the captain? Hope not

Sure seemed like it.

Not that we will ever find out, just another upper-body injury I'm sure.

Bruins coach Julien on Seidenberg's hit on Toews: "We need to start educating our players to protect themselves better." #Blackhawks

 

So, yeah, Bruins coach Claude Julien basically blamed #Blackhawks' Jonathan Toews for hit by Dennis Seidenberg.

Hahaha. They are the worst.

#Blackhawks trade Jeremy Morin to Columbus, acquire defenseman Tim Erixon from Blue Jackets. Erixon will report to the Blackhawks.

What a waste. Thanks, Q.

No big surprise there.

Congrats Coach Q, you win, you get to keep your meathead on the roster. It's not like young, cheap talent can help with future salary cap problems.

#Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said he didn't know if Duncan Keith's illness is mumps-related.

Nice try Minnesota, one of these years you will learn how to win on the road.

 

Can we start the playoffs next week? This team is on a roll.

This has been a fantastic run the Hawks are on. Keep it rolling, boys. Stack up those points.

If you got 18 minutes to kill, go watch the Capitals/Panthers shootout on NHL.com. It went 20 rounds, longest shootout in NHL history, very entertaining. Although I am disappointed the goalies didn't get a chance in round 19.

I had to watch the Wild feed, the announcers were b****ing about the hooking penalty that led to Kane's goal late in the 3rd.

Did Kane say whether he was trying to make a pass, or was just going to throw it against all of them?
