There's no way cleaning staff and busboys and waiters and cooks will be under 2 month quarantine.

This is suppose to be part of the deal . Everyone tested daily . Staff can go out but can't get back in without being tested.

I wish I could remember who wrote the article.

I saw one Canucks game at the old PNE and I have this weird memory where you had to drink beer in between periods in some low-ceiling room, where you could also smoke, and you basically couldn't see a franking thing.

Am I correct on this??!

It was over 25 years ago, and I was drunk.

I had been to PNE only to see Van Halen and Barenaked Ladies. I have been here for 35 years only and I was an Oilers and Kings fan back then


So I don't know

Wow.

I guess being the only native person, that i know of, posting on here makes me a bit sensitive to some of the content. Like when i see a post like “sports teams named after indigenous people dont offend my native friends” it seems ignorant. Because growing up with that, having the knowledge that people see you as an adversary is not pleasant. And frankly, you’re quite wrong.

Anyway I apologize to you folks all, but i also encourage you to try to appreciate my perspective. I deal with racist poop in rl all the time, whether me or family. I kinda would just not like to have it on here where i like to talk puck. Anyway, that’s my piece and im taking a small break.

I am sorry you got offended by me stating that many 1st Nations, that I know, aren't offended by most of the team logos that were mentioned earlier.
Your struggles, with racism has gone on for far to long and anyone not seeing that is an ignorant fool, but, do you think it is right to fight racism with comments like, heehawnkey, which is a fairly racist comment.

Do they all have pro shops if a guy needs his skates sharpened or forgot his junk tape?

It's funny - there's the natural assumption that you need one in the east and one in the west, but in reality, it wouldn't matter.

- Atomic Wedgie

Most i mentioned do.

I agree TZ is not a big deal for hubs. All that matters is start times.

Apparently ol' Wedgie's joke about NHL players running into the pro shop to buy junk tape fell flat.

Thanks for taking a risk and sharing. Most of us are trying to get better at understanding and living along side all our neighbors.

Is there any reason why they couldn't do West and East at both sites? It would help them fit in the logjam of games for audiences within different time zones.
