Hawks are going to sneak in and win the whole thing. And then, instead of having an asterisk next to the championship, it will be considered an especially great and big and historical and important achievement to win a Cup in these difficult times. Legendary heroes will be made and stories will be told... Miracle on Ice II? ... just letting you know the narrative the networks will try to sell to advertisers. And monkeys might fly out of.................... |

Any lustre associated with awarding the 2020 Stanley Cup is now erased.
This proposal us a fucking joke.
Shitty hockey played in the heat of summer, in front of no fans is already unwatchable.

Unless the Hawks win, of course. Then it's amazing and awesome.

I agree, and it’s not nearly as much of an accomplishment playing in neutral sites without fans. Is it “better than nothing”? I guess. It’ll be the dead of summer and interest in hockey at that point will be pretty low, especially considering the shit storm of a reality we’re all currently living in. |

Given circumstances I don't think 24 teams is some huge joke. I do like their suggestion of bringing familys rather than sequestering players alone for a month or whatever.
Some of the rule proposals are asinine. no scrums or spiting? if you can push or check a guy but whistle blows and then? It's as silly as not being allowed out at night.
Bottom line is this is solely to satisfy tv/advertising contracts. Not some huge push for awarding the cup. Lets not fool ourselves.

No gimmicks...Unless they want to play 3 on 3, with a mandatory shootout. |
