Quick Hits: The Henrik Heartbreak Edition
In Red Wings Land
The #NHLBlues now find themselves in a very interesting situation with regards to their salary cap
— CapFriendly (@CapFriendly) December 17, 2020
They are currently projected at $1.175M over the ceiling with a roster of 21 (19S + 2G). However, they also have RFA Vince Dunn who is still unsigned.
We’ve been talking about helping the Lightning with their cap crunch for a few weeks. What do you all have to help the Blues instead?

This sucks. I was looking forward to seeing how Lundqvist would fare in his new town and I always enjoyed tracking his career. If this is the way it ends, I’ll be bummed.
NHL Likely To Approve Helmet Ads Soon
Sources said that the helmet ads for the upcoming season are primarily designed as a make good for naming rights sponsors and founding-level type partners, subject to league approval. The sticker placement of sponsors would be located on both sides of a player’s helmet, sources said, and only one brand would be allowed at a time on the helmet.
We’ve had a couple ideas. What are yours?
