The Daily: Slafkovsky Apologizes, Red Wings Luff Accepts; Grier Willing to Listen to Karlsson Trade Offers – DetHockeyNow

“I reached out to him,” Slafkovsky told reporters. “It sucks what happened with him and (the) injury. He texted back and said thanks for reaching out. I think that’s all I can do after that incident. I cannot change what happened.”

This is a couple days old, but I hadn’t seen it mentioned in the comments yet.  I’m glad the kid took the right step and seemed to have the right attitude about the situation.

Dye by the Blade: Alex Tuch Tells His Story Through Tattoos – DbtB

Tuch’s tattoos are already helping to tell his life story, from memories in the Thousand Islands to his relationship with his great-grandmother. As he mentioned, he’s still got plenty of open space on his right arm – and then a whole other arm, if he chooses to utilize it! Who knows, maybe he’ll even include an homage to Rick Jeanneret or a Buffalo Bills-related tattoo someday.

This is a cool idea and the title is very good.

I hope the stretcher was just an abundance of caution for a back injury because that could be disastrous for Wedgewood.
