Agreed, I've met him and Edzo several times during NBC broadcasts because they sat directly behind us and Doc was always so friendly and welcoming, such a great guy and great play by play guy
Well, with the controversy and magnifying glass on the Yotes for drafting Miller super scorching now, they decide to renounce their rights to the racist bully: https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/...racism-surface
@ Miller...have fun with your career ruined you racist @$$!

It has to suck being a ticket holder right now but honestly, I am not sure it matters. It isn't like they are going to give you money back and you obviously don't want to give up your seats. There is also no way the season resumes with fans in attendance with things getting worst. The best the teams can hope for at this point is that the travel roster size is allowed to increase and they play in their own arenas with no fans.

NHL consider a realignment with the following divisions:
Toronto-Ottawa-Winnipeg-Vancouver-Calgary-Montreal-Edmonton
Boston-Buffalo-NYI-NYR-NJ-Philly-Pittsburgh-Wash
Tampa-Florida-Nashville-Carolina-Columbus-Detroit-Chicago-Minnesota
San Jose-LA-Anaheim-Vegas-Colorado-Arizona-Dallas-St. Louis

Never really been a basketball fan. Watch the NCAA Tournament cause it is cool being single elimination anything can happen. Never had interest in the NBA.

Toews out indefinitely with a medical issue. It doesn't sound like COVID...so, it may be a concussion given the way he is describing it. Hope the captain returns soon...the game needs him.
Hawks' season is ...Dach is done and now Toews out indefinitely.

Don't know if anyone else watched them but watched a bunch of the WJC 2021 tournament the past few days including all the US and Canada single elimination games. I needed some hockey. Some super exciting games followed by the US defeating Canada last night for the gold medal.

Forgot to post this...Corey Crawford hangs up his skates: https://www.tsn.ca/goaltender-corey-...sons-1.1574941
Underrated goaltender. Wish him all the best.
I wonder if Hawks will retire his number? I think probably yeah?

Not one to bring up political things in any thread and I don't consider it political in the first place. What Trump did was stupid but having big tech censor speech by banning him I think sets a bad precedent for the future. I don't like it regardless of who the poster was because it riled up some stupid sheep that came out of the woods. The government should have been the one to censor him long ago from using Twitter.
Now back to hockey. Game begin on Wednesday!!!!!!

It's happening today! NHL is back!
Yeah going to be interesting to see how this plays out the first week or two. Hopefully, this is just something that got messed up going into the start of the season and not a sign of what is to come. Needs to be a wakeup to the players that might not be taking it as seriously that if they want to be able to complete the season they need to take it seriously. Staff included in that as well since I believe the Stars positive tests were pin pointed to a trainer or team staff member and not a player.
