Do we know if the league is going stream games or are they getting broadcast rights?

Toronto was able to draft Canadian Olympian Natalie Spooner who had used the compassionate clause to ensure she could land in Toronto with her young family.

Is this really a thing? If so, I see this as already being a slippery slope

Did this board just travel back in time to the prehistoric era? So many Neanderthals in here, and we wonder why the world is going to sh*t...

It is, but not everyone who applied got it, i think there are some pretty strict guidelines. Spooner revealed she used it, but no one else said they used it as far as I know

Rumours seems to indicate it will be outside of the city, some event went as far as saying that New York area could be Connecticut. More to come as Ek would say…

Hey, you do an amazing job here! I'm really disappointed I'm in Sherbrooke since July, it will be much harder to go to a game. We still have hockey friends in Montréal, we will probably organize something, but being able to go whenever we want would have been so much better, their play level is something to behold!

Please name Ottawa's team the Ottawa Bootleggers an accompanying bad ass logo and tie ins with local breweries and distilleries would be awesome.

Good luck ladies!!
