Sounds like they are trying to get out of a high priced sponsorship.

Dunno.

To be sure hockey is bitchin’ dangerous and violent. But so is college football and every other sport.

But it can’t be any worse than what Tiger Woods went through with his wife beating him with a golf club through a vehicle.

You know golf, a passive sport.

Read this story earlier and while it may be ‘real’ hockey; seems the level of violence has upped the ante on those injured. . .big time. Not sure that makes this game ‘more real’ or something else.
