Clown world.
Hasnt reached TSN yet but RDS is reporting.
It will be hard to ever watch hockey again. Strongly considering quitting on all pro sports and focusing on the WHL and other minor leagues.

Sports is done, it's supposed to unite people and all the major leagues are making big mistakes running on cultural BLM shit. Shutting down sports because some rapist fuckhead got shot, civil society is over, nothing but morally degenerate lying corrupt frauds.
Great comment. What a sad state of affairs.
First Logan Couture gets sucker punched for supporting Trump, and now the league goes and does this. I know for a fact that most NHL players arent cucks and many are Trump supporters. Yet the league focuses on douchebags like Matt Dumba and Evander Kane as the face of the league and spokesmen for all this woke bullshit.
And the cucks on TSN, Sportsnet, etc, who are too afraid to go against the mob and will continue repeating fake and gay shit thats been debunked over and over again.
Agreed, except TSN/Sportsnet are not 'afraid', this is intentional. They know what they are doing, they know the ratings have/will go down. They serve powerful people !
Now the NHL is the same as the NBA. Bye bitches.
the NHL is just a product like Frosted Flakes or Oreos.
If they want to endorse domestic terror groups, they can do that.
I used to watch one or two games live every season. I bought their streaming package. I won't ever give them a penny ever again.
I used to be a big fan back in the day, but the game has fallen so far. This is the last straw.
And the NHL video games are especially shit. Plus you have teams lkke Toronto who have idiot GM's who build a team based on what works in NHL 19 rather than in real life. And many players being addicted to video games and loving seeing their own names in a video game doesnt help.
They've been cucking all season but this is beyond the pale.
First they fired Don Cherry, and replaced him with a multicultural, gender-equal panel and they fucking suck.
Watching the playoffs this year was dogshit without Coach's Corner.
Now they're doing their best to hop on the BLM trend, with the idea that it will somehow gain them more fans?
There's only so many times one can be flipped off by the league. There's no enforcers, very little fighting, tons of cheap shots and stickwork and a free-flowing, high scoring game where two-line passes are allowed because the league thought that Americans would like it if there was more goals for the highlight reels.
It's time to take the Cup back home and give it to an amateur league the way Lord Stanley specified.
The NHL is ruining hockey.
Woe great comment. Glad Im not the only one who hates the direction the game has taken post the 2004 lockout. Getting rid of the two line pass rule was a huge mistake, and none of these changes acrually brought about an increase in goals per game. It did for a few years but eventually the number of goals per game dropped back to pre-2004 levels, which were the lowest in history. Yet people still shit on me on reddit for suggesting that we should bring back the two line pass.
I fucking hate 3 on 3 OT and the shootout as well. They have turned the regular season into a totally different sport than the playoffs. I dont think its a coincidence that both 12th place seeds were able to knock off the 5th place seeds in the qualifying round. The regular season rewards shitty top-heavy teams. Montreap is actually a very good 5-on-5 team but they get raped in the regular season due to OT being 3 on 3. The 12th place teams were clearly not as bad as people thought, and its not only because of parity, but because the playoffs are a different beast altogether.
When the two line pass existed, made the neutral zone important and it also made for stylistic differences in attacks. Once they got rid of that, it just became end-to-end hockey which makes for less of a build-up to a goal and less of an emotional experience when one gets scored.
Don't get me started on 3 on 3 OT and shootouts. They're fucking bullshit, even more crap that makes for better highlights while ruining the game itself.
Yep, and all of these rules punish defensive teams and defensive defensemen, as well as teams that invested large portions of their salary cap to defense and goalies. Even the way they structured the Vegas expansion draft, the rules around how many forwards and how many defensemen you could protect also punished teams that had 3-4 defensive superstars, instead of just 1-2. The entire thing is always about increasing goals and encouraging highlight reel moments, with complete disrespect or even outright contempt for old school hockey.
I agree completely.
This is the side of effect of media and telecommunication companies sucking the liberal dick and taking ropes of cash down the throat. We all lose.
Support your local Junior A team, if we're allowed to watch them play in person this year.
All of this because of fucking garbage humans were "wronged"
I'm saving so much money buy boycotting so many things. Really it's a double win for us and a double loss for all these paste eating companies.
Western Media in all forms is garbage, I highly suggest you stop indulging in it
If you still know sports fans be sure to remind them of the faggotry they are supporting. Mock them. Remember when pogs were taking over schools then they banned them for 3 days and the kids never played with them again? With the Holocough shutting down a full season for sports then they come back and start doing this woke crap, maybe it'll have the same effect.
Thats what I dont understand. The sports leagues are already losing a ton of revenue due to Covid, so why pull super risky moves that alienate half your fan base? Now when the people dont return to the stands, the league will wonder if it was covid or all this woke shit that turned them off.
Everything is worse now and no, it's not because you're getting old.
Movies? Remember when you could see gripping films like Se7en and The Usual Suspects in theaters? Not anymore. Enjoy your commercialized Marvel and Disney spam.
Wrestling? Entertaining people on the mic and storylines? Not anymore. Enjoy your indie manlets doing flips and performance center nerds acting like they're the top dogs when they would have been thrown around like a piece of wood on Sunday Night Heat 20 years ago.
Hockey? Remember when Scott Stevens would fuck you up if you tried to be cute with the puck? Pretty soon checking will be banned and replaced with flags on uniforms.
The PGA is based.
Always has been.
And idiot sports fans will continue en masse to support these fucktards. Drop these assholes and start supporting only organizations that don't pander to this BLM/Marxist/SJW Globalist bullshit.
Oh yeah, there aren't any.
Literally endorsing terrorism. Nice one, NHL.
Feel free to tune in to Formula 1. Free practice 2, Qualifying, and the race start at 9am Eastern time Friday, Saturday, and Sunday respectively. This weekend the race is @ Spa, one of the fans' and drivers' favourite tracks.
There is a 2 minute kneeling ceremony before the race, about half the drivers don't kneel. Basically it's an international sport and America's problems don't affect much.

Local hockey at least we still have some control over.
That's pretty much every team, especially the adults. We love to fight each other in the stands too, I'd post youtube videos but don't wanna dox myself.
Ontario boooooo
