The ESPN hockey panel has evolved greatly compared to what it was just a few years ago, with multiple NHL stars brought on, and even the 'GOAT' Wayne Gretzky has made his appearances at times.

As of late, PK Subban and Mark Messier, two retired players, have been signed onto the ESPN hockey panel and fans at home are sitting back with their popcorn enjoying it. Due to the fact that both Subban and Messier played in two completely eras, disagreements have been made at many times when analyzing certain plays.

The New York Rangers defenseman Ryan Lindgren was injured�Saturday during a game against�Washington Capitals,�as a result of a strong hit from the Capitals forward T.J.
