My latest for THN. Ovie was never supposed to do this, and he did. But here are five NHL records that will actually never be broken.

There are some NHL records that are so preposterous, so incredible and so freakish that they will never fall. @Ken_Campbell27 has the details: https://t.co/Io9vZpfq3d

The Islanders win Twitter for eternity with this one.

New York Islanders @NYIslanders

WSH goal. 2-1 #Isles.

At the risk of sounding like a cranky old man, I pay for a cable package that includes Rogers Sportsnet and TSN and I also pay for the Centre Ice Package. My subscription doesn't include Sportsnet 360, so I don't get today's Wash-NYI game. That's dumb.

Is Pavel Dorofeyev the most anonymous 30-goal scorer in NHL history?

The day after Ovie ties Wayne Gretzky's all-time goal record, Sid gets a hat trick. Man, these guys.

Alex Ovechkin missed the net six times tonight. What a stiff.

For what it's worth, an agent of a Caps player told me that his client told him that Ovie said he will not break the record with an empty-net goal.

Niko Mikkola gets fined $5,000 for shooting the puck during play. Jalen Chatfield gets nothing for an MMA takedown that could have turned out very badly. I agree with the New York Rangers. George 'The Violent Gentleman' Parros is unfit to perform his duties and should be fired.

Just a reminder after that Chatfield-McMichael scrap: Somebody is going to die from a head injury sustained in a hockey fight someday. I've been saying it for years now. Might be 10 years from now, might be tomorrow night. But it will happen. It's inevitable.

Niko Mikkola of the Florida Panthers being fined $5,000 for shooting a puck with time on the clock is the most NHL thing ever. If I'm Mikkola and the NHLPA I appeal this to the Supreme Court if necessary.

I will never, ever get used to seeing this. https://t.co/pCrnb3MWxq

There’s no conspiracy against the Habs or any other team, but Gallagher is bang-on with his incompetence comment. It will never change if the stakeholders don’t speak up. Good on him for having the courage to do so.

@BGALLY17 Brendan Gallagher was fuming ! And rightfully so at the inconsistency in nhl calls. « It seems to go against us every single time, it’s incompetence. We need someone in there who can show consistency » #habs #MontrealCanadiens #nhl https://t.co/lWPZ1amv4B

My latest for THN. The Bruins aren’t this bad, are they? But they’re not good enough to rebuild on the fly. That likely means an extended stay in the NHL’s worst place - the mushy middle.

My latest for THN.

The Hockey News @TheHockeyNews

A slow burn and a burning desire have allowed the Maple Leafs' Bobby McMann to excel where so many other undrafted college free agents have stalled, says @Ken_Campbell27: https://t.co/ynPM53MufJ

Goalie interference is rapidly becoming the biggest embarrassment in the NHL. This is ridiculous.

Try it again. My latest for THN. When expansion franchises are being sold for $15 million, isn't it about time to start paying the players a living wage? https://t.co/bHF3U7aO0s

This game has all the feel of a Maple Leafs-Flyers game on a Tuesday night.
