That was pretty fun to watch. Too bad it's too much of a gimmick and they won't ever do it again, I don't even care though I want Olympics not that bs

It was worth the 24 mins

Datsyuk getting beat by McDavid.
Datsyuk running the screen on tarasenko spin shot.
Malkin and his mates passing to each other.
5 on 3s
NA almost tieing at 4-4.
Bobrovsky 44 saves.

Great game

Bush league imo. Season needs to be scrapped so 20-21 can be played normally (assuming we recover by then).

Shortened playoff series in neutral locations with no fans cheapens the Stanley Cup.

Furthermore the health of those involved can not be guaranteed. I don't see how it would be financially viable either.

These ideas just reek of desperation and lack common sense in my opinion.

Shutting this season down wont allow next season to be played normally. It will only be played normally when they create a vaccine, which should at least take a year at earliest. So looking at early 2021.

Bigger picture here boys.

After covid does anyone believe current seating capacities will stay the same?
All arenas are going to have to change. Social distancing is here to stay for the indefinite future. Gone are the days of being shoulder to shoulder and your head at the same height as the ppls asses in the row behind ya.

Think kids will be attending schools with classrooms pushing 30+ students? Think again.
