Good luck with that then NHL. They won't be starting until like February.

The NHL doesn't have to play in Canada anyway.

Don't tell me the Canadian teams are going to play the same 6 teams 82 times is the plan.

Oh another after the fact edit of the post I see. Funny how many of those you make.

Nobody has ever said this but if you would actually read the articles / listen to the podcasts / watch the videos you might actually know what they are saying than assume after you read a freebie Twitter headline.

7 out of 31 teams shouldn't dictate the entire leagues schedule. If the Canadain govt doesn't want to be flexible start the Canadian teams in the US.

Its not a big deal.

It’s not a big deal...lol.

Tell that to the owners whose teams generate a large proportion of revenue this league relies on.

Do you work for the Athletic or something? Why do you care so much if someone subscribes to some dumb sports site.

With empty arenas exactly what revenue are they generating? You can play the same game in Bakersfield for whatever that's worth.

I’m referring to -any- article including the one I just posted which you didn’t read but felt compelled to comment (incorrectly) on it anyway.

Must be nice to be Kreskin.

You're the one repeatedly posting/shilling for one paid site and then getting angry and insisting that people pay for their content. Sorry but nope.

It’s called clout. Canadian owners will not agree to exposing their players to a 20 + game road trip and the Covid shit show that the US is not footing the additional costs.

TSN isn’t a paid site. But had to comment on something that was free that you didn’t read. As usual. Your just another social media loudmouth f***ing know it all who knows nothing at all.

I don't think Canadian owners care. Also lets see where Canada is come January, the regular flu spreads like wild fire up here every winter.

Yeah except I called Edmonton and Toronto as the summer hub cities before practically everyone on this board, lol. But ok, I couldn't give one fart about social media, lol.

OK while 5 Mins wrestles with his conspiracy theories, US hubs make the most sense to start the season for the winter.

Otherwise to start in Canada with a "regular" 82 game schedule is likely going to mean Feb/March start for the season which will suck.

I'd rather start in December even if it means the games start in the US. Hope by for the last 62 games or so you can move teams back to their home markets and play with crowds around March/April.

You can have the 4 Western Canadian teams in LA/Vegas, and the 3 Eastern ones in Florida to start.
