Hockey Canada has announced another record-setting year for women's and girls hockey in the country, with over 121,000 players registered for the 2025-26 season.
I don't think enough was made of the impact of Nik Ehlers.
He was tied for tops on Winnipeg with 3.5 Pts/60. He leaves and the Jets goes from three players above 3.0 to two.
His linemates go from 2.4 to 1.8 (Perfetti) and 1.9 to 1.0 (Namestnikov). Secondary scoring disappears. The team falls out of the playoffs.
And the team Ehlers joins wins the Stanley Cup
