Well I deleted the Sportsnet app off my devices.

Nearly 40 years of watching hockey. All down the drain.

He can offer this because sadly how many players will actually defy the ban? Happy to eat crow on this later but until then I don't think Burkie needs to be heading to the ATM yet.

What a nerd. That comment alone tells me he is not a leader, but just a follower.

Down Goes Brown has a bit that he repeats pretty often on Puck Soup, which goes something like, "Hockey players are promoted as the toughest of the tough, they'll do anything to prove how tough they are...unless it's their feelings that are being hurt."

I can't believe the NHL keeps tripping on its own d*ck when it comes to this stuff.

Our players have taken the bold stance of "we'll follow the rules".

Kel is going to use his money that was allocated for the NHL to buy a upgrade to his gaming rig.

Not a bad idea though.

Before you spend all your money, I am accepting donations to 'The Human Fund.'

We are going great charitable work. Probably...
