FWIW, I’m watching too. Some good hockey and one of the BLM dopes, Ryan Reaves, got tossed, so that was fun.

That was flagrant...he leaned in to shoulder-check Motte's head. Back in the day, regardless of color, Reaves would have been pummeled.

Indeed, I truly believe hockey fans just don't care about color...or national origin...or anything. It's probably because of that melting pot component to hockey (which I believe is greater than any other sport...it may not be racially diverse but it is nationally diverse). The Bullies of 1974 & 1975 were all Canadians but nobody in Philly cared. We had Wayne Simmonds for years, and he was a fan favorite because he was a scrappy guy and a fighter - that he was black never figured into that equation.

That Vegas goal hurt. Demko deserves a better support system.
