In case you don't follow me or teenage girl hockey fans on Tumblr you may have missed the biggest news in hockey since [Erik Karlsson](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/71658/erik-karlsson?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) was drafted: [Erik Karlsson](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/244210/erik-karlsson?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) cut his hair.

[This was such big news that the CBC even made wrote a story about it](http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/erik-karlsson-senators-haircut-1.3260581?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) \- though it was really just a collection of tweets - and how lazy is that? I mean if I wanted to look at tweets I would use Twitter, **amirite Scott Wheeler!?**

So far Karlsson's lack of long locks hasn't left his team luckless. In their first game last Thursday the [Senators](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/ottawa-senators?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) defeated Jack "calculator error percent more goals than Connor McBust" Eichel, and the [Buffalo Sabres](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/buffalo-sabres?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), 3-1.

Tonight is the Senator's second game, and second on the road, because you know a conversation like this happened:

BETTMAN: We've scheduled all 29 home openers. Good work everyone.

DALY: Wait. Aren't there 30 teams in the league? Isn't there a second team in Ontario?

BETTMAN: A second team in Ontario? There can't be a second team in Ontario. If the Leafs ever won the cup that second team wouldn't exist.

##### Oh, wait. [That conversation did happen](http://www.thehockeynews.com/blog/gary-bettman-on-expansion-to-ontario-if-the-leafs-won-the-cup-that-second-team-wouldnt-exist/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com).
