- Vegas Golden Knights owner Bill Foley has some of the loosest lips in the hockey world. Other than his previous newsworthy quotes, on Monday he let it slip that the Jan. 15 start date for next season isn’t so realistic, and will go beyond that a “week or two.” [Sportsnet]
- Some teams are letting players try on the new “Reverse Retro” jerseys on the ice during pre-training camp practice and some are looking much, much better on the actual athlete on the actual ice, like Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov.
