About NHL, History and Headquarters Information
History
NHL was founded in the year 1917. The organisation has been active for almost 101 years now. The organisation was a successor to the National Hockey Association. The founder of the organisation was Thomas Patrick Gorman. The organisation has its roots back in the year 1909 when the NHA began to play one year later with seven teams in Ontario and Quebec, Canada and was one of the first major leagues in professional ice hockey as well. During the NHA’s eighth season, a series of disputes with the Toronto Blueshirts owner, named Eddie Livingstone, had led team owners of the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators, Montreal Wanderers and Quebec Bulldogs to hold a meeting, in order to discuss the league’s future. During that time, the NHA constitution left them unable to force Livingstone out, and thus the four teams voted instead to suspend the NHA. Therefore, in the year 1917, the National Hockey League was created. Frank Calder was chosen as the organisation’s first president, serving until his death in the year 1943.
The first NHL All-Star Game was held in the year 1934, in order to benefit Ace Bailey, whose career ended on a vicious hit by another player named, Eddie Shore. The second game was held in the year 1937, in support of Howie Morenz’s family when he had died of a coronary embolism, after breaking his leg during a game. The league had almost doubled in size for the 1967 – 68 season, adding teams like the Los Angeles Kings, Pittsburgh Penguins, Minnesota North Stars, Philadelphia Flyers, St Louis Blues and California Seals. In the year 1974, the Washington Capitals and Kansas City Scouts were added to the league, bringing the league total up to 18 teams. There have also been significant labour issues during the operations of the organisations’ history. There have been almost four league-wide work stoppages in league history – all happening since the year 1992. The first was a strike by the National Hockey League Players’ Association in the year 1992 itself, which had lasted for ten days, but the strike was settled quickly, and all affected games were rescheduled as well too. From the year 1952 to the year 1955, Marguerite Norris had served as the president of the Detroit Red Wings – which was the first woman NHL executive and also the first woman to have her name engraved on the Stanley Cup as well. The headquarters of the company is based in 1185 6th Avenue. The name of the place is New York, while the name of the state is New York, USA. The pin code of the area is 10036.

I’ve been watching hockey for 45 years. Never seen the horrible ref calls, players disgracing the game by cheating, and fake calls when another team is down. What the heck is going on in today’s NHL. Teams like Boston and NJ have been getting lambasted with lousy calls…some costing them the game, for an example. I watch a lot of hockey…all the teams….never seen it like this.
BLACKOUTS why is a hockey game being played in Minnesota being blacked out in upstate New York ???? ESPN+ is the only channel telecasting and I am blacked out. How can you keep people interested in the game when you do this???
Hey Gary, the espn contract is terrible for the fans. I would love to hear from you or somebody in your ivory tower. Too many networks and this blackout crap. Unbelievably backward thinking.
I have the same issue as Lili, I assume the objective is to protect the tv markets. I live between Pitts (400 miles) and Philly (80) miles . Blackout is driven by zip code. Don’t worry too much, by the time you find which network that is carrying the game (given what, the 4, 5, 6 national networks plus local, it will be over.
Thanks for thinking of the fans!
In light of the NHL’s rules that ban support of pride tape, symbols. Representation of the lgbt community i felt compelled to voice my disdain for this overtly bigotted move to marginalize the lgbt community.
Gay people exist and no regulation will ever remove the gay men and women that play hockey. It will not serve the NHL to alienate allies and people who play or watch hockey.
The NHL officials that came to this decision are ignorant and hateful perhaps even fearfully unaware of their own biases and immature views.
Hockey (was) a sport, that (once) embraced leadership, athletisicism, fun, community support that (was) focussed on teaching youth to adults to better themselves regardless of sex , age , social status, ethnicity, religion, so if the NHL is going to enforce rules that disseminate not strengthen communities then why not do a full ban on aboriginals, blacks, religions , those with mental health issues and physical handicaps?
Do they not see how dangerous this roll back of human rights this is? Who chooses these antiquated regulations and why?
The message this sends is you better stay in the closet, it shames vulnerable youth and spits on the atbletes that just want to play a sport without some elitists telling them they have to “go away” because they hide behind their positions of power only to use it to further a personal agenda.
When i first heard of these new regulations i was dissappointed but not surprised because anyone with an education a heart and a mature brain can see this for what it is. It is another political motivated move. It is sending a message. It is not about sportsmanship, safety or to better the sport.
I support pride and equality. I do not support this. When these elitists get away with this what is the next move?
This is much bigger than sports, hockey or a thoughtful direction to support the league and the many leagues that lgbt and allies support.
I hope the decision makers understand fully the implications of their disasterous intentions and no matter what, the lgbt community is NOT going to dissappear.
Please use this letter in support of the lgbt community and the absolute rebuke of anyone who supports this nonsense.

Why not get the ahl teams in the nhl
I just wonder how much the refs get paid off for letting one team win over the other. because they sure dont call a game fair. Do they have bets on all the games. Im so done with hockey its net very fair anymore.
When will officials be held accountable for poor or missed calls? I’ve seen several games where a call isn’t made and if the player that received the hit/cross-check etc. does the same thing a penalty is called on them but not the first guy. Why isn’t there an official who watches the game from a higher viewpoint that can see the whole ice and can see everything and can relay information to the on-ice officials like a missed call or be the deciding voice if there is a disagreement between the officials?
Please …Go back to wood sticks asap ! Better stick handling and the sound of old fashion hockey too !
The officiating in the League is the worst I have seen in 50 years. The Linesman and referee’s make way too many mistakes.
I’m loosing interest in the game.
John D’Amico , Ray Scapinello , Ron Asselstine , Terry Gregson and Don Koharski were far superior than any of the guys today.
I was just in NYC -saw the headquarters/purchased at the store -2 hats for my grandsons- and saw the ice skating rink – TRULY – the rink needs help – The Franchise flags need to be placed around the rink so when tourists take pics they can be by their home team/. In our case -the TB LIGHTNING! Please put up some signs or flags !!
Just want to let you know the off side video review has taken a lot of the fun and the joy out of watching hockey at the NHL level. Hate it. Totally ruins the fan experience. Can no longer just celebrate a goal and cheer – now we have to sit and wait, as maybe, maybe – Oh lets see. Is it a goal or not – we’ll know in five minutes. Friends who watch hockey with me think this is crazy. If the call at the blue line is so close that 4 refs cannot get it exact – then it is not serious enough to influence the scoring experience. So why bother? Dump this stupid idea, please. From a life long fan and player – who no longer enjoys seeing his team score.
Referee Chris Lee has a long history of officiating Habs games horribly. Total disgrace. Not just a Canadiens fan whining. This is all over Canadian hockey media today (in reference to Habs vs. Wild game last night). NHL, please reprimand this disgraceful ref. I guess not as long as Colin Campbell is around.
Neil, I couldn’t agree with you more. No Russian players should be allowed the honor of playing in the NHL
I am so disappointed as I am told I can no longer get Center Ice. I am not from the streaming era and for years I have paid to watch my favourite teams. I look forward to hockey season every year and now I am told that’s the only way. I am heartbroken and find that shameful
9 years for B. Griner. Announce today that Russians will not be playing in NHL until Britney is home.
Disappointed that same has not already been done in response to Putin’s murder spree in Ukraine.
Show courage! Do something!
I agree with Neil, but it should be escalated that NO Russians should be able to come to North American, let alone play in the NHL, unless they have gone on record as denouncing the war in Ukraine and that their gov’t that has immorally and illegally invaded a free and sovereign Ukraine.
Screw you. He (Griner) doesn’t have a thing to do with hockey. Keep your disgusting politics OUT of hockey. Other sports have suffered enough from your madness. Leave the NHL alone. They are already FAR to woke as it is.
Perry belongs in the NBA not a real man’s league. He makes the NHL look bad. Deserves to have his head taken off.
Pride month? Really! What does that have to do with hockey? Makes me puke.
Russian-born players should not be enjoying the privilege afforded by Democracy and freedom when their government is assaulting it.
Agreed. Unless they have publicly denounced their Govt for the invasion of Ukraine they should not be allowed in the west!!
The NHL should seriously look into the quality and veracity of their On-ice officials!!!The officiating of the current NHL Playoffs is undoubtly the worst officiating I have witnessed in my 50 + years of viewing as an ex fan !!!
Did Anyone Watch The Colorado/Edmonton Playoff Game??? At The End Of The 1RST Period Colorado Was Clearly Offside, But The NHL Idiots In Toranna Said It Was Not Offside??? Are You All Stuck On STUPID???
I meant to do this earlier. I plan to write to Commissioner Bettman to encourage a change to the best-of-7 playoff format to 1122211 instead of the current 1122121format starting with the next playoff round. This would decrease a teams air travel and thus help reduce greenhouse gases adding to global warming. No, it’s not the final solution but would help nonetheless. Newsflash: we’re running out of time.
Time to change to playoff format. Loses is just not enough after a 82 game season. No more series give each team that qualifies for playoffs 10 loses. After 10 loses you are eliminated. Format of best of 7 is outdated from a time when 4 teams out of 6 made the playoffs. (I would like my chances of winning the cup back than). There needs to be more objectivity in the playoffs.
I am a woman that frequently watches NHL hockey with my husband. I just want to say that the women commentators on TV are pretty bad….half of the time you can’t understand what they are saying, and I don’t believe they know what they are even talking about. Women should just but-out of a male dominated sport?
Send all Russian players back to Russia
I agree. Not to punish the players but to apply sanctions equally. Russian Citizens and Ukrainians have no choice and are affected by the Russian government’s actions and the sanctions against Russia.Russian athletes are no different and shouldn’t be excepted. No Russian citizen should enjoy the privilege afforded by democracy and freedom when their government is attacking it. They’re afraid to denounce Putin out of fear, so be it, go back to Russia and stand with him or join Russians in protest.
All who have not forcefully condemned Putin’s war.
👍👍
I collect tickets from NHL milestone games. Why were there no printed tickets from the 2022 Winter Classic and the 2022 Heritage Classic? I have tickets from all outdoor games up until 2022 when for some unknown reason you guys have decided to stop printing commemorative tickets. Please explain.
Tried to watch the Montreal/Kracken game made it as far as the political 🐂…. (BS)About the Ukraine and turned it off, if I want political propaganda will watch CNN.
Stopped watching the NFL when they started taking a knee during the anthem. Please don’t force me to do the same with hockey.
its high time NHL removes all Russian Born hockey players from the League.
Agreed. As fans we need to stand firm against this double standard. Americans, Ukrainians, and the citizens of the world are all paying a price for Putin’s actions. Why are Russian athletes getting a free pass. Some Russia-born players are Putin supporters. Not acceptable. Everyone who agrees should contact their member of congress to make this demand.
When can we see a woman’s NHL team. We need a woman’s hockey team in Canada. Let them play the same way as the men do. Let them play for the Stanley Cup
Because only a small few people are interested.
I now have 2 streaming services, so that I can watch my team on my regional network. Too bad tonight’s game is on ESPN+, which my regional service will black out! I was excited to have ESPN+ at the beginning of the year, when I had no regional service, but now that I have it, I wish there were no games on ESPN+. I guess the NHL doesn’t care about it’s fans, and I’m getting so frustrated, that I may forget about the NHL all together and start watching Corn Hole or Underwater basket weaving!!!
I realize that the “new TV deal” ESPN, TNT, represents more revenue for the NHL. However, with the NBC network, I was getting 3-5 games a week on TV. Now – 0. My streaming service, that carries my regional network, that carries my local team, does not offer TNT, or ESPN +, net, net, you are limiting TV Accessibility this great game, do really think this is going to help grow the game?
Apparently, it is more important to schedule NHL games to accommodate the players to participate in the Olympics 2022. There is nothing more frustrating to a fan then see your team struggle in back to back games against rested teams. I don’t believe this is fair, and could lead to injuries for players who are not rested for at least a day. It is exciting to have the best players participating in the Olympics, but not at the expense of losing players/games in this scheduling debacle.
Dear NHL,
The NHLPA has also been contacted with my concerns. I will also attempt to email each player representative with the following suggestion.
There are growing concerns regarding NHL players participating in the Olympics due to COVID-19 issues.
This is a time the NHLPA and NHL should take a stand together. With the disappearance of tennis player Peng Shuai, the NHL should boycott these Olympic Games until Peng Shuai is proven to be safe and free to express her opinions and leave the country if she so chooses.
In 1936, alternate games to the Olympics were held as a protest to Nazi rule in Germany. The NHL should take the initiative and host a World Cup of Hockey Championship in North America during the Games. The NHL already has scheduled time off and will have no shortage of empty stadiums to host this event. It is also a chance to invite the KHL and European hockey leagues to join in this protest and tournament.
I have heard media members talk about the legacy of players and how they want their legacy to include an Olympic victory. Their legacy will held in much, much, higher esteem if they were to fall on the more honourable side of history by staging this protest, while simultaneously celebrating the greatest hockey players in the world and this amazing sport.
The NHL and NHL Players Association will, no doubt, receive an incredible amount of free promotion and good will around the world. And what corporate brands would not want to align with that sort of integrity? Imagine the shock waves that will occur when it is announced the best athletes in the premier Winter Olympic event will not be participating in support of Peng Shuai.
Finally, this is simply the right thing to do. Please bring this to your Association and discuss. To see Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr stand side by side and announce these measures will show a huge act of unity.
Thank you,
Concerned Hockey and Sports Fan.
Would like to see a point value change to the Winning of a game. RW regulation win, 3pts. OT overtime, 2pts. And SO shootout, 1pt.
Zero for a loss.
Would put more emphasis on Winning. Thanks!
Please convey to the Commissioner: the officiating in the Winnipeg-Toronto game was bad. The League has to improve its officiating standards. Only then can it justify a 6 game suspension to a 1200 game veteran who has never been suspended before.
Where are the hockey games on Monday ,Tuesday and Wednesday ? They certainly are not on tv. I am going to forget about this sport if I have to wait 4 or 5 days between games on tv.
Hey NHL you know why I don’t watch your game anymore? Because Just like the NBA you went full send PC and put women in the booth for NHL hockey that has how many women playing in the league? Oh that’s right! ZERO! I am not going to endure 3 hours of some broad talking out of her butt about a game she knows little to nothing about. It’s a horrible look and a horrible sound and it’s just so ESPN which is the worst move you ever made canceling NHLTV trying to force your audience into socialist brainwashing. BTW, why is it the US is the only place you did this? Quite a concerted effort to install communism in America your now a part of huh? Open your eyes and get off this political agenda your pushing before you totally destroy the most beautiful game on earth.
Agreed
Shea Weber intentionally slashes Kucherov WITHOUT THE PUCK on the unprotected part of calves RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE REFEREE! and there was no call. This is just ridiculous! HE’S THE LEADING SCORER IN THE NHL. His intent to injure the best player on the other team in the SCF is 100% evident!
I hope that the central league office is reviewing the attack on Gallagher during the third period. First, his helmet was removed and then he was slammed headfirst to the ice. That behavior should draw a game misconduct and a hefty fine. That sort of play has no place in hockey, especially the Stanley Cup finals.
Player Safety : Debris thrown on ice at end of ISLANDER game LAST NIGHT!
Just got home from Islander Game last night. It was a great game! The debris at the end of the game was dangerous to all players, a disgrace to all Islander fans, the Islander organization, and the NHL.
Why did it happen?
It happened because there are not enough bathrooms. At the end of the 3rd period (and 1st and 2nd) people went to the bathrooms and “HAD TO WAIT IN LINE FOR MORE THAN 20 MINUTES”, they missed the overtime goal. The lack of facilities is not new but the Islander Organization (not Nassau County) is responsible for not providing adequate services for this game. Coming from out of state to attend the game I was unaware of the lack of adequate facilities at the Coliseum. Why the Islanders and not the County?
The Islanders are the responsible party because they (not the County) are charging $400.00 (and then some) for each ticket, $15 for a beer, $25 for parking, etc. They are making enough money on the event that they should be able to provide porta-potty overflow to accommodate the between period rush of customers in need of a JOHN.
The NHL should mandate to the Islanders to clean up their act and shell out some money for the port-potties. If the Islanders loose tomorrow in game seven it is a moot point. But if there are more games at the Nassau Coliseum this will continue to be a problem, again!
Thanks for listening,
Tom Craven
Long Time Islander Fan!
DRIVE FOR FIVE CONTINUES IN 2021!
By the way missed calls was the same thing that resulted in Perry getting an injury last game. Again sloppy reffing guys Clean it up
Worst ever refereed game in Montreal when it comes to calls Nothing for getting slugged in the face. Wake up guys
Never in the 50 years of watching NHL playoff games have I witnessed such terrible and blatantly obvious one sided officiating display from game 2 of the Vegas vs Montreal 2021 series. Read attached article to see very clearly two very dirty plays that would most definitely warrant a penalty 99% of the time.
https://www.habseyesontheprize.com/2021/6/17/22538367/canadiens-vs-golden-knights-game-2-officiating-missed-calls-2021-nhl-playoffs-refs
The NHL Commissioner, Director of Operations and the Players Safety Board need to hold Officials accountable for deliberate non-calls as described in the article. This sends a very wrong message to the kids and parents watching these players go un-punished for their conduct on the ice.
This poor officiating makes most fans wonder if the Vegas Knights corporate sponsors paid the officials to call a very one sided game? The league needs to make better efforts at ensuring fair calls are made every game, the league also needs to restore trust that they have the fans best interest at heart.
Last night was another example of how these referees are incompetent. Not only was the Brayden Point penalty not a penalty according to the rule book that allowed the NYI to score and could have decided the game. But then shortly after 4 linesmen and referees miss 7 players on the ice? Come on! The officiating is getting worse every playoff game as the refs continue to ignore penalties that would have been called in the reg season and linesmen subjectively call icing whenever they want. Its just a joke!
The officiating in the playoffs is absolutely ridiculous! So inconsistent! What’s called in the reg season by the refs is not called in the playoffs. Why? Shouldn’t be! Or what are textbook/rulebook penalties are completely ignored both in the reg season and the playoffs! Referees ignore 50 cross checks a game but then randomly penalize a team when they feel like calling one. It’s a joke!
And the icing issue is brutal! Linesman are so inconsistent that players, coaches and fans have no idea when an icing will be caked correctly. Also a joke!
Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to consider the following.
Any human being on the planet with any common sense knows the difference between going after the puck and going after the player. Even pretending to go after the puck but intending to go after the player stinks to anyone with a nose.
The NHL as supervising body has both authority and responsibility to assure proper discipline for a restoration of humanity to hockey. In this most recent instance of intentional injury, Scheifele should not return to play before the end of his 4-day suspension or when Evans can return to play fully healthy and recovered, whichever occurs latest. Give the aggressor reason to become concerned for the recovery of his victim, at least for his own benefit if he is incapable of having any sympathy or compassion for his victim.
There have been and will be cases when criminal charges are brought against a player, his coaching staff, and even the League for their respective parts of responsibility in causing, allowing, or encouraging criminal injury to be inflicted.
This clear case of wilful and intentional serious injury is an opportunity for the NHL to do the right thing and see to it that a clear message is given and proper discipline put in place; so that from now on, any player who has the temerity or lack of judgement to wilfully or neglectfully inflict serious injury will know that there will be serious consequences to himself as well as to his intended victim. The coaching staff and referees also need to take full responsibility for their own part in tolerating, allowing, or even encouraging such violence.
Thank you.
NHL refs are the worse, getting worse each game, and it’s just not one game or series it’s all of them, must be Gary’s new rules
Forget the players, let’s watch the refs, and the NHL front office allows such terrible acts without punishment to these refs
I’m not a Toronto or Montreal fan, but I watched the 6th game and
So many missed or ignored calls, over time win for montreal was a total joke, Montreal player does a complete open head shot and no call nothing, almost knocked the player out, he barely got up after a few attempts and ref did nothing
I’m all for ruff and tuff playing, but come on, rules for one not the other, games become a joke
Worse thing Montreal goes down and scores in overtime due to the toronto player being taken out
Gary Bettman, You and your staff should be ashamed for the handling of the Tom Wilson situation
the other night against several New York Rangers players. The $5,000 fine he received is joke.
He is out of control and just a thug. By not doing a severe punishment on him is the wrong message
to send out there. A couple of the Rangers could have been severely injured and how would that have
looked for your precious NHL. Tom Wilson should not be the image of the NHL.
Fire George Parros! He is incapable to do his main job of enforcing the NHL security rules on the ice. This 2021 season, too many hit on the head were unpunished. The few that were, were so weak that it seemed like an encorragement to continue. Fire George Parros!
Fire Parros!
looking to connect with Dan Craig to talk about portable ice systems. Can i get an email or contact info
Been a Hockey Fan most of my life! Very disappointed in the officiating of the playoff Game last night September 01/20 between Las Vegas and the Vancouver Canucks, so one sided, seams the Canucks have to win against two teams,
Not the first time in these playoffs.
NHL has to do better. Please.
Darrell Ralph
We went from LGBTxyz colors on the NHL emblem which was disgusting enough, to postponing playoff games because the “soy boy” players are having a HISSY FIT about the black criminals who are perpetually committing crime and fighting with law enforcement???? Really boys??? Hockey is NOT THE PLATFORM for personal, political grievances!! The League is going down the crapper like the other sports leagues….congratulations!! I’m done with the BS. Sports are “actually” entertainment, not a freakin’ reminder of idiots in our godless society!! I’ve been a hockey fan for 50 years, but now, I will only watch college hockey. I’m done with the Negro Hissy-fit League!!
What the heck?…I posted a comment yesterday…and I got a notice saying “waiting for moderation”…..now it’s no longer here and as yet I’ve not received any explanation….
Canceling thurs and fridays playoff games is the final nail…Iam done…I will not give nbcsn any neilsen ratings, nor the nhl network…nor by a single ticket too another sharks game..and id like too let the decision makers know youve just lost a die hard purchaser of nhl center ice for 6 straight years a premium 140.00 dollar cable package..Done…black lives matter is a political organization..It is controversial..It is not settled science in regards too “social justice”…its just not…You have lost me…Keep going nhl, lets see how big of a hole your going too dig yourselves…You play a stupid fuking game..Thats. It….A stupid little game…And make boatloads of $…..get your asses out there and play your stupid little game for me…Entertain me…thats what your there for…And thats all your there for…I think your losing focus….Im sure there are tons of graveyard shift clerk postions at 7-11 waiting for the players and front office people…Keep it up
Boy you guys really screwed the pooch..Imagine my shock at the beginning of the Lightening/Bruins game last night when I was subjected to a sermon about supporting a false narrative about racism and social justice?….especially since an investigation of the situation at hand had not been completed……
Did you know the man in question had a rap sheet as long as Ron Jeremy’s winky?…and he was being arrested on outstanding warrants?..he resisted arrest and refused to comply with officers demands?..then he reached into his vehicle for a weapon?..what about the officer involved..is he supposed to wait until he gets shot/stabbed before he reacts?..WHO THE HELL IS IN CHARGE HERE?..ARE YOU ALL MORONS?..
What about all of the police officers that have been assaulted and shot at/murdered?…Do you support them as well?….if you do then why not announce it before any of the games?
We the fans control your destiny…sooner or later the money from the TV contracts is gonna run out…then what?..if no one watches that means your advertising dollars aren’t worth as much and then your next TV contract is gonna be less than you need…How then are you going to pay your bills?
without fan support, ultimately you are nothing…..NFL, MLB, NBA…you guys have all gone down this road..
I feel really sorry for the players….you have given them NO choice….I hope you choke on your Social Justice decision
Nice job–nothing like having Evander Kane running the NHL. You failed your fans. Now I know why Matthew DUMBA is not pronounced that way it is DUMB A. You guys suck–nothing like following the NBA–the kneeling A holes that they are. We WERE season ticket holders until tonight.
BLM. Your position on this matter really bothers me. Why are you getting involve with this. No needs.
If players wants to contribute and help on their free time; that is what they should do. But to use the NHL to get involve on this can of worms is a huge mistake. This is the Blind following the Blind into a Brick wall. I thought you were going to be the only sport coming out of this smelling like a rose.
Wake up!
Please don’t make the same mistake as NBA and MLB! We want to watch a game and escape the politics! We don’t need to be lectured. Plus are you going to be racist only towards blacks? What about a Jewish national anthem? There are a lot of Russian players, shouldn’t they get their nar’l anthem played? And should we kneel for the Japanese internment camps and concentration camps of Poland? What about the Muslims being abused today by the Chinese?
This is getting ridiculous. You will not gain fans only lose your current ones.
You insult all our vets when you bend your spines to this garbage.
NHL Executives,
Black Lives Matter Banner at your games? Are you F..ing kidding me? The organization BLM is a Marxist and terrorist group that is causing enormous damage, death and destruction in cities where you have teams.
Im a life long NHL fan. I play hockey today at 55 yrs old. You cant afford to lose my demographic as a fan base. NHL execs get your heads out of your asses before you get boycotted like the NBA.
We were the understanding that the NHL was not going to tolerate players to kneeling during the National Anthem, but they have. I’m a retired combat fighter pilot and have lost many good men who gave everything for our country and freedom, and now your league supports a Marxist organization, Black Lives Matter.
Where is the Blue Lives Matter signs ?!?!? You assholes know blm is a hate group that advocates the Murder of Police Officers ??? Are you fucking kidding me with this shite !!!
Reading in my July 17 One year Bible Isaiah was pointing out the woes of Babylon. The overview said that GOD is Sovereign over HIS Nations. No Empire, tribe, Nation or Multibillion dollar business is exempt from the judgement of GOD when wickedness replaces righteousness. Supporting the LGBTQ agenda/society has caused me to write this. Read Revelation 22:14-16 in the New Testament. There’s a message waiting for you there.
AMEN!! The “elites” in the NHL have joined the other schmucks in the other sports leagues!!
Fuck the fixed, bullshit, fuck weasels that ran this sport into the ground.
I think the Nhl should shut down now for the safety of the players and family,s If I had a son playing in the Nhl and my son would die what would MR. puppet Bettman would say I know what I would do I,d sue him for all the money is got this man is a idiot to put the Nhl in front of the players health,so Mr puppet shut it down and also to have 24 teams in the play off is a joke the 16 teams work so hard to make the play off why the 7 other teams are in
The Gwinnett Arena North of Atlanta would be the perfect location for the condensed 2020 Playoff format. The Ice Forum (The Thrashers practice facility) has 3 rinks in it for practices and it’s not far from the arena.The population density is fairly low and there isn’t much of a fan base here. There are plenty of hotels in the area for the players and Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport is 40 minutes away.
Refund ticket holders for games that absolutely will not be rescheduled. This is total BS.
Proposal for return.
1) have a week “training” camp
2)Finish regular season and do the awards
3) Division winners make playoff. Best of 5 winners get conference trophies
4) Remaining two teams play for the O’Brien Cup. No Stanley cup.
5) Draft takes place between End of RS & Playoff
6) FA period start 8/1 (or a week after playoffs)
7) 20-21 season starts mid Oct

a trip to Boston April 3-6 for my birthday weekend to see 4 games in 3 days, 2 Celtics 1 Red Sox and 1 Bruins , with everything going on the NBA,NHL SUSPENDED the season and because of the terms SUSPENDED I cannot receive a refund until you guys figure out what’s going on which is a crock of BS personally because of moving the game to the future I will never get to go and with not being paid I will never get the opportunity to go now, it’s a shame you havent done the right thing to put our money back in our pockets and now I begin to earn interest on what I charged to go see your product and spent almost 2 thousand dollars in total to see your product, it’s just shameful on your end…end of rant
I need my tickets refunded for the 3/15/20 game in Anaheim, Ducks vs Canadians. Ticketmaster won’t refund as long as the league classifies the game as “postponed” instead of canceled. Do the right thing. Many people are complaining. Read the USA Today article published today. The league, teams and ticketmaster look very bad in these tough times. Quit holding peoples money. The games aren’t getting rescheduled
What is going to be done to the Ref during the Montreal Dallas Game told Gallagher to go Fuck Himself. Is this is what we want in the NHL, There has been calls that have not been call. Max domi had a cut to his lip and was bleeding but the ref, did not call that. There was a tripping not called. I love Hockey but when the Ref’s can change the outcome of a game that is wrong. I have been seeing this more and more. It needs to stop.
Regarding Pride Month.
Saving souls with the truth is a little more important than being PC.
What good are we doing people by condoning the thing that could cost them their soul?
Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? Galatians 4:16
The God of the universe defined marriage as a union between a man and woman, no one has the authority to change that definition. “And He (Jesus) answered and said to them, ‘Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’“ —Matthew 19:4
Our Warning
26 For this reason God ((( gave them up))) to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. Romans 1: 25-27 (This is our concern for country and the world. Has God given up on us?)
Our Hope
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Psalm 103:10-12
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. John 4:10 16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
Forgiveness, love, and truth.
Careful going against almighty God. This is a fight you will surely lose. And most importantly time is running out. Israel 1948 and Jerusalem 1967 are profound signs of the Lords return.
Stand for what is right, God has the last word and will judge everyone on what he did while he was alive. Romans talks about this. a Reprobated mind is wicked. So God allowed them to turn to a wicked mind, what’s right is wrong, what’s wrong is right.
Amen, brother!! We are in the last “hours”!! I hope there is hockey in eternity!! No more insanity once we get there….HALLELUJAH!!
