Here are all the links from around the hockey world, and what I’m reading, while looking forward to seeing “Thor: Ragnarok.”

*Anytime you get a chance to post pictures of Brent Burns with Chewbacca, and the San Jose Sharks Twitter account proves they know Wookiees are from Kashyyk, you really have to appreciate that with a link.

*The NHL and NHLPA could face a marijuana discussion, according to FOH (Friend of Haggs) Darren Dreger, because Canada is facing full-scale legalization this summer.

*The Maple Leafs defense is to blame in another loss, and Toronto’s team weakness is finally beginning to get exposed after more exposure.

*Frank Seravalli details 13 potential NHL head coaching candidates who have mostly gone through the recycling bin and are now ready for another look behind the bench.

*More info on the Kyle Turris/Matt Duchene trade that eventually fell through and how it leaves possibilities for other teams to swoop in and pick up the momentum.

*Cool gesture from the Tampa Bay Lightning to get together the Cup winning team with Marty St. Louis showing a little behind-the-scenes look on his Twitter account.

*For something completely different: Wegman’s continues their takeover of Massachusetts by opening up another supermarket in Medford.
