Clean hit, and certainly not an elbow. Didn’t launch himself. Hit him shoulder to shoulder. Was already going for the hit while Orpik still had the puck and contact made a split second after the shot. Looked worse than it was because of the careening into the boards, but guys shouldn’t have to fight in response to…

I went back and forth on this, but kerfluffle is increasingly used in the U.S. and is listed as an accepted variant of kerfuffle. So I’m sticking with what I’ve always said.

It will not receive property tax from the building itself, but it will see a monumental increase in income taxes from the employees (including the athletes themselves), as well as property taxes from the development the arena is hoping to generate.

I’m trying to picture rush hour in Canada and all I can see are drivers apologizing profusely and insisting that others go first.
