Not surprising. They're scratching for every dollar they can find. I don't even want to know what the escrow percentage will be for this season.

They should just start selling pro jockstraps to make up for all the lost revenue. I imagine you could get a few billion for a mcdavid unwashed jock

I understand there's a cash flow problem with no arena ticket sales. I'm hoping it's temporary.

I did some FPV drone racing the other day, what a buzz. From that I wondered what would stop the NHL from going the next stage on from player tracking, fitting players helmets with miniature cameras and doing FPV live stream casts. Sell an intro package which includes goggles, any necessary software and subscription to the package then you buy per game for the player you want to follow. Get inside McDavid's head for a game, listen to everything he says and does, follow what he sees on the rink. Thanks NHL, send me a cheque for the royalties when it goes live 🤑

No different to Winter Classic sponsored by Bridgestone or anything else the TV companies sponsor, play of the night, penalty box cam whatever.

Helmet stickers aren't crazy so far. I would be bothered with a forehead sticker like they do in Europe.

Yeah, and for the most part, they are using the most minimalistic versions of their logo. It's fine honestly, and if it increases revenue for the lower income teams that's cool too.
