I’ve been a lifelong hockey fan and this is the final nail in the coffin for me for the NHL as a league. Between this, the Kyle Beach coverup, the spotty officiating, lack of concern for player safety, ads on jerseys and helmets, the moving ads on the board and non stop gambling promotions…I’ve had enough. It’s an amazing sport but an absolute embarrassment of a league.

So glad that I'm not the only one who reacted this way. When I say that I'm done caring about the NHL, I don't mean it as an angry protest. I mean that this news broke what was left of my ability to care.

I hope that the things you replace hockey with are more fulfilling!

Thank you, you as well! Do you have any suggestions or are there other interests taking up your time?

I'm not sure! I love a good opportunity to reconsider what I care about and how I spend my time. Sports is mental junkfood for me, and I'm gradually replacing it with junkfood from my other niche hobbies. There's so much cool stuff to learn about and explore!
