Exactly. Can't believe the NHL lets this happen. It's not only on opening nights either. HNIC as well. The puck should drop 5 minutes after the advertised start time max.

Still have the anthem.

This game will start over 20 minutes late.

Completely embarrassing.

Or drop the puck at 8:00

understatement of the year!! I have never heard of them before, and if I never hear them again, it'll be too soon.
