In normal times, we'd be between Games 1 and 2 of the Penguins' first-round playoff series, discussing how they're about to get swept out of the postseason for the second year in a row (and why everyone associated with the franchise should be traded/fired/deported) or how they clearly are destined to be the first team to go 16-0 during the playoffs.
Alas, these aren't normal times, so talk of actual games will have to wait a whole longer. Until then, there is plenty of hockey-related fodder -- past, present and future -- for discussion, and this is the place to do it.
Post questions and observations about any of the above issues -- or anything else pertaining to hockey, for that matter -- at your convenience, and I'll respond over the course of the day.
If you’re new: Enter one question (at a time) in the comments below. When it’s done, all that will be left are the questions, my replies and any follow-ups by the original questioner. Please don’t use this the way you would an ordinary commenting thread, and please scroll through the questions already submitted to make sure your question hasn't been asked.
