Remember how everyone was wondering if Bylsma's job security is in jeopardy when they got steamrolled by the Bruins?  I know he just got extended and all, but you've got to wonder why Martin (who has 17 years of experience as a head coach) is being brought in as an assistant.  

Fantastic hiring and really the only thing the Pens needed to do in order to improve. Great hiring. The Pens should be the Stanley Cup favorite if they weren't already. Nothing but good things can come from this.

The Preds fought back against the Red Wings’ incursion with a campaign called “Keep The Red Out” that allowed Detroit fans to turn in their jerseys at the Nashville Pro Shop and receive 50 percent off a new Predators sweater. Over 300 Red Wings jerseys were surrendered, according to the team.

With the Red Wings off to the Eastern Conference, the Predators are now focused on eliminating Chicago Blackhawks jerseys from their arena this season.

How?

By forcing Chicago fans to spend twice as much to see their team in Nashville.

According to Nashville Predators President and Chief Operating Officer Sean Henry, speaking with Section 303, the Preds will not allow single game ticket sales for their three home dates against Central Division rival Chicago on Nov. 16, Dec. 17 and April 12, 2014.

If you want tickets to those games, you’ll have to buy tickets to a second non-Blackhawks game too.

This. Means. War.

Now, why didn't Melnyk's Minions think of that?  Instant sellouts for those Jersey games.
