Saturday, June 11: Garth Brooks' Gordie Howe tribute

Share

Here are all the links from around the hockey world, and what I’m reading, while feeling like the Stanley Cup Final result gets decided this weekend.

*Good for Garth Brooks donning a Gordie Howe jersey during his concert in Saskatchewan on Friday night.

*Don Cherry and Ron McLean continue their road trip conversation with Grapes finding the real connection between Pittsburgh and San Jose.

*Wayne Gretzky remembers Gordie Howe as “the best player ever” after idolizing him from the time he was just a hockey-loving boy in Canada.

*PHT writer Cam Tucker has news of Marc Savard’s contract on the move to the New Jersey Devils as the Florida Panthers look like they’re clearing salary cap space for something.

*Matt Murray hopes to learn from the rough first period in Pittsburgh’s Game 5 loss to the San Jose Sharks, but it would appear the Sharks are starting to find the holes in his game.

*James Mirtle has NHL teams beginning to learn the guidelines for a likely expansion draft with a Las Vegas team ready to join the league.

*For something completely different: you had me at Skeletor dunking a basketball and then you somehow worked in the Thundercats as well.
