Yes, that led to the cancelation of all sports, including NHL for several months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yes and no. Obviously the Gobert thing and everything around it was the flash point for cancellations around North America, but cancellations in European sporting events was already happening (and had, on an exponentially increasing scale, been happening since the middle of February) and, if hadn't been Gobert, it would've been someone else in the NBA, NHL, or MLB, and was going to descend to that point eventually anyway. In hindsight, and even really in real-time, this was quickly becoming inevitable by that point in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if the subterfuge involved in getting the players to commit to a return ultimately results in labor strife and a work stoppage down the road, then maybe they shouldn't have resumed.

If labor strife and Lightning Cup wins are going to go hand-in-hand like has happened before, then, sorry but not sorry, I'm rooting for constant labor strife in the NHL.

ManillaToad Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 He's always been a shaky guy. It'll get more noticeable as he gets older Also the team crowding around him while he gave the Cup presentation speech was great, I hope it becomes the new tradition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old Dallas Stars were a Best Team Money Could Buy that was on ESPN whenever possible. Since the bankruptcy, they've become a cult phenomenon for hipsters who haven't moved to Austin yet and irony posters nationwide. I wonder if they've been allowed to do those hysterical jumbotron memes. Rent free. Bless your heart. oof Speaking of bomb shelters. Atleast now that hockey is relevant in Chicago again, winning a shootout won't necessarily mean that someone died. Hope you enjoyed seeing a warm weather team win the cup this year. That cabbie-beating rapist wasn't gonna win the Art Ross that year anyway. And put some respect on Pantera's name, jabroni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
