Morning Skate: Gostisbehere honors Stoneman Douglas hockey team

Share

Here are all the links from around the hockey world, and what I’m reading while enjoying the Runaways series on Hulu right now.

-- Pro Hockey Talk has the details on an extremely successful season ticket drive in Seattle, where it looks like we'll have NHL hockey next.

-- Stoneman Douglas High School alum Shayne Gostisbehere has invited the school's hockey team to a Flyers game after they won a state championship. Cool gesture by the Philly D-man.

-- So Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk has written an open letter to the fans where he vowed the Sens will once again be a Stanley Cup contender. I’ll believe it when I see it, is probably what Senators fans are saying right now. Boy, is it getting ugly up there.

-- Congrats to legendary hockey reporter Stan Fischler, one of the last links back to the Bobby Orr era of the NHL, who is retiring. The Hockey Maven will absolutely be missed all around the hockey world, and especially in the New York area.

-- The Corey Crawford injury is opening the door for some Blackhawks backup goalies to really show what they can do at the NHL level.

-- For something completely different: Cool story from Lester Holt about Adrian Dantley,  a big Celtics foe during his NBA career, giving back to the community.
