NHL Thread Because There Isn't An NHL Thread

Today would of been the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

On the other hand, the season got cut off about two weeks after I stopped paying attention to my Habs.... so I'm watching as much hockey as I would have been?

Hey, look on the bright side, the Sens didn't miss them again this year.

It will be interesting to see what the NHL decides to do.

I don't believe that the NHL or NBA will finish their seasons either TBH.

Agreed...although I want my cbj back...I just don’t see it being possible.

So that would mean no playoffs either? No Stanley Cup Champions in 2020??

I just don't think it is feasible. Nascar is coming back next week, that will be an interesting case study for sure.

UGH....I'm missing sports.

Specifically Baseball and Hockey.


But at least the Blues are still the Champs!!

A surprising number of players have put out really good statements of solidarity. Toews and Seguin come to mind. Sadly a lot of the teams' statements have been pathetic and some downright insulting (e.g. the Islanders). I suppose that's to be expected considering most teams are owned by billionaires who bankrolled Trump's campaigns and several have had Blue Lives Matter nights as recently as this season. My own team honours a member of the armed forces every home game but not once have I seen them honour a social worker, a teacher, etc. There's a long way to go but considering the makeup and economic backgrounds of most of these players I've been impressed with them.

For a very, very, very white sport it’s fantastic!

Although to be fair to the Islanders, it’s no excuse, but they’re probably toeing a line because Long Island is racist as shit. Their ownership may be racists too, I have no idea.
