If CuJo were GM...

Article from the Globe and Mail, talking about Pogge getting the start tonight. CuJo makes some interesting comments.
Also, Van Ryn didn't wear a mouth guard? Is this common in the NHL, for players to not wear proper protective equipment?

Yes

Yes it is. (see the lengthy discussion about fighting we had a couple days ago about all that)

Yes

As ridiculous as it sounds, Matt Stajan is one of the few Leafs to wear a tiny piece of equipment that plays a massive role in preventing concussions.

I always liked how after Mats would score a goal his hand would goto his mouth to get his mouthguard out before celebrating.

But yeah it seems like a lot of guys don’t wear them.

Helmets are mandatory, right?
And there’s been all this discussion about visors becoming mandatory.
But mouth guards are not?
This seems rediculous to me.
