Not much has happened with the Ducks since...well, yesterday. Today's links will focus on happenings around the league.

AROUND THE NHL

  • Reflections on a season of growing discontent. [Backhand Shelf]
  • A brief history of the Canucks-Blackhawks rivalry. To me, this rivalry is the most interesting in the NHL right now. [Nucks Misconduct]
  • Veteran defenseman Jaroslav Spacek retired from professional hockey yesterday. It is thought that he would still be playing professional hockey had their not been a lockout. I hope his retirement isn't the first in a wave of many to come. [Canes Country]
  • Read Gary Bettman's interview with the Winnipeg Free Press. [Winnipeg Free Press]
  • Oilers prospect Oscar Klefbom suffered a shoulder injury a month ago, and may require surgery (which would be accompanied by six months of recovery). [Edmonton Journal]
