Quick Hits: The No No. 1 Not Yet Edition
In Red Wings Land
Detroit Red Wings’ Jonathan Bernier not counting on No. 1 spot in goal yet - Freep
“When you’re in situation like we were as a team, nobody’s safe,” he said. “At the end of the day, if the trade is good for the organization and they feel they’re getting better, they will do it. I don’t think anyone was really safe. There was definitely a chance (he could have been dealt).”
I like Bernier and his attitude. I also like that later he says he hopes to play until he's 40 or 38. I like to think that's because 39 belongs to Dominik Hasek.
The @NHLdotcom writers have chosen Steve Yzerman as the best ever to wear No. 19! What do you think?

Tough call, but I think Ivan Boldirev would agree.

Report: NHL not considering delaying training camps
The current phase allows teams to host voluntary on- and off-ice training sessions at their home facilities for a maximum of six players. The opening of training camps for the 24 teams that qualified for the expanded playoffs will mark the start of Phase 3.
Not even considering.
