San Jose Hockey Now: The NHL is going to the Czech Republic at the start of the season, but there’s a catch.

Trade Talk

Chicago Sun-Times: Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews say they’re committed to Chicago despite the NHL trade rumours.

Meanwhile, here’s a carry-over question from this past spring: Where will Jakob Chychrun end up? The big Arizona Coyotes defenceman confirmed to Arizona Sports that he wants to be traded to a contender.

“We talked about it at the end of last season, my desire to win in this league,” Chychrun told the media outlet.
