I dissagre with exploitation of dead youth

How can you even say that? In what way are these youth being exploited? An immensely traumatic event happened and people are trying to support those affected and remember those who passed. It's an amazing act of coming together under terrible circumstances.

 

[PBandJ]

Camrud has a bunch of skill.

 

[Blitzkrug]

I don't see how it's exploitative when TSN went out ahead of time and said they wouldn't be airing any ads/commercials.

They're not making a dime off of this.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

how on earth does icing work in SJHL? do you not have to win a race for the puck as the defensive team?

 

[Filthy Dangles]

damnit

Most minor leagues and major junior use no touch icing.

 

[robertmac43]

They had so many chances for the tie! Camrud is actually sick

Junior hockey has no touch icing. At least that's the way it's done here in Ontario and I assume it's the same there.

I dissagre with exploitation of dead youth. Call me all the names you want. You guys are pure class.
I cant even stream in my area, the money from baseball matters enough to black it out. Weird eh?

You are so clueless and really shouldn't say anything about class.

 

[PBandJ]

Man, Hobbs came up big, that went right where the Broncos wanted it.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

It's also nice that TSN is covering it because the ceremonies will be nicely produced and easily found online when people need a moment to remember and "re-read" the last chapter of the book.

I still go back and read some of the Lokomotiv stories and watch the KHL tribute vids just in my own way to show they haven't been forgotten about.

 

[Inkling]

When you invite the league Champions to your home opener, you know you're going to have your hands full. They performed well.

Is that the case for CHL and OHL too?

 

[robertmac43]

Honour was ours sir.

 

[Inkling]

Is that the case for CHL and OHL too?

Yes for the OHL. It's pretty much only the NHL (and AHL?) that has the hybrid icing from what I know.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

He's a pretty good goalie.

 

[PBandJ]

WHL uses no touch icing.

His last sentence makes me uncertain he was being critical...

 

[Chris P Hundo]

I thought the awards ceremony in Vegas was a little much, but I dont see how you can have a problem with this. Its the first game since the crash man.

 

[PBandJ]

I can already tell I'm gonna get emotional during this ceremony.

 

[Inkling]

I wonder how they chose the broadcast crew. I specifically remember Gord Miller saying shortly after the accident that he would love to call a Broncos' game. That was way before people knew there would be a team this season. I wonder if he and Cuthbert flipped a coin as it would be something that any play-by-play guy would want to do. Ray is part of their A-team so makes sense that he was doing it.

 

[robertmac43]

Its impressive how this in arena announcer sounds so put together during all his talking.

Cuthbert was the play-by-play voice for the Yorkton Terriers of the SJHL in 1979-80.

 

[PBandJ]

Dammit... :'(

 

[robertmac43]

I don'y usually like Country but that song was actually really catchy

 

[snipes]

This feels as bad as the first day. Just sitting here with my wife both full on tears rolling down our face.
