Mark Stones Spleen
So apart from that this is NHL and the NHL makes no sense, why is the NHL 2019 Thanksgiving Showdown NOT on Thanksgiving?

THANKSGIVING SHOWDOWN ON NBC HIGHLIGHTS 12-GAME SLATE
A total of 24 teams are in action across a 12-game slate Friday, highlighted by the 2019 NHL Thanksgiving Showdown between the Bruins and Rangers at TD Garden.
* Bruins forwards Brad Marchand (18-25—43 in 25 GP) and David Pastrnak (23-16—39 in 25 GP) rank third and fourth place among all players in points this season, respectively, behind the Oilers tandem of Leon Draisaitl (16-32—48 in 27 GP) and Connor McDavid (18-29—47 in 27 GP).
* A point by Pastrnak Friday would make 2019-20 the first season in 45 years to feature multiple Boston players each with 40 or more points through the team’s first 26 games and fifth in franchise history overall.
* Two tallies by Marchand would mark the third season to feature multiple Bruins players each with 20 or more goals through 26 team games, following 1929-30 (Cooney Weiland: 24 G; Dit Clapper: 22 G) and 1973-74 (Phil Esposito: 30 G; Ken Hodge: 21 G).
* Boston owns a 9-0-4 (22 points) record at TD Garden, its second-longest season-opening home point streak in franchise history behind a 21-game run in 1973-74 (19-0-2, 40 points). The Bruins are the only team without a regulation loss at home in 2019-20, with goaltenders Tuukka Rask (7-0-2) and Jaroslav Halak (2-0-2) manning the crease for nine and four of their games at TD Garden, respectively.
* Rangers forward Artemi Panarin (12-20—32 in 23 GP) leads the team in points this season and has found the score sheet multiple times in nine of his last 11 games dating to Nov. 6 (6-14—20). He can become the first New York player to record multiple points 10 times in a span of 12 team games since Jean Ratelle from Nov. 13 – Dec. 9, 1971 (9-19—28).
* Panarin has collected 22 of his 32 points since Nov. 1 (7-15—22 in 13 GP), trailing only McDavid (12-12—24 in 13 GP) and Draisaitl (4-19—23 in 13 GP) for the most among all players over that span. Panarin can establish a franchise record for most points in a single month of November; he would eclipse the previous high of 22 set by Ratelle in 1971 (8-14—22 in 11 GP).
* The undrafted native of Korkino, Russia can become just the third different Rangers player over the last 23 years to record 23 or more points in any month.
* Tony DeAngelo (7-11—18 in 23 GP), who shares the third-most points among Rangers players this season, can become the first New York defenseman to reach the 20-point mark in 24 games or less since Brian Leetch in 2001-02 (6-14—20 in 24 GP).

They probably just don't want to compete with the NFL since watching Football on Thanksgiving became a tradition.

Not a fan of afternoon games on a day when many people are working and/or shopping.

Oh the horror. One game during the day.
I work nights when 81 games get played.
Cry me a river.

Start times for NHL are so dumb lol
Almost 30mins past the scheduled start time
Could learn a thing or two from the MLB.

How many times has the Thanksgiving Showdown been between the Bruins and Rangers or involved one of those two teams?

If the mods could give me a list of pre approved messages for the Peters thread that would help. Getting posts pulled for being political and not sure why.
So maybe just close the thread if its going to be modded like that.

I don't have his splits in front of me but pretty sure Lundqvist has some of his best career numbers in Boston. If we can pull this win out then you really have to feel good about the direction of this team.
