Should the league ban Canadian players for this? And Americans for their support of Israel? And Russians for their support of Putin?

This is not at all what happened. No doubt Nicholson is a piece of poo poo and did a lot of dodgy poo poo as part of Hockey Canada but he never resigned in disgrace. Dude was feted for leaving Hockey Canada at a great place (cause noone outside him and the board knew of the slush funds). The Oilers never gave him a "second chance".

Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a boring movie
On a PK you could probably strategically stack all 4 players and goalie like that in such a way so as to prevent any one from scoring.

On the power play though, what the gently caress man.

Yeah I've been trying to get into hockey casually the last three years and between the black hawk stuff and this and God knows what else I've missed it doesn't give me a lot of confidence to keep getting into the sport. I don't even want to be a fan of any individual player now lol

Post-2005 lockout fan here. I miss when I'd binge hockey and playing EA NHL games to manage rosters because I'm one of the weirdos for which being GM was almost more fun than playing the games. There were times, especially in the late 2000s, where I'd watch the NHL from Noon until Midnight, but the combination of my team reverting to being poo poo, the seemingly unending ineptitude of the league, and the ugly stuff that has come out has my interest about as low as it's been.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

A have a lot to tell you about Canadian justice but the short version is its slow, underfunded ( not the cops but everything else ) and unevenly applied.

Serious criminal charges are routinely thrown out of our courts because there's a rule that says if the government can't make their case within 18 months of being charged then charges should be dropped. It's a joke.

Said yesterday morning:

quote:

“It sucks to see first Oliver and now Dillon. You’ve got to try and support them any way you can,” Andersson said during a scrum this morning. “I think if you’re struggling on the ice or off the ice, I think it’s a good wakeup call for a lot of Twitter monsters out there too, that we’re humans too. Maybe think before you write. That comes with being a professional athlete, but it’s never easy seeing someone struggle and then reading about it too. It sucks.”

As a defence lawyer I think that rule is very good, and if the Crown can’t get something to trial within 18 months (excluding defence delay and unavoidable delay) then they’ve seriously dropped the ball. Maybe they shouldn’t schedule so many spurious cases for trial, or should stop taking ridiculously punitive positions on guilty pleas and joint submissions in docket court, if they’re worried about overbooked trial courts.

e: to make this hockey related, go Sens go, and gently caress Batherson. As stated earlier in this thread, if he was in the hotel that night and was aware of these issues then he is, at best, a complicit bystander, and the lack of charges doesn’t mean that he didn’t do something morally objectionable.
