When Eric Trump congratulates NHL players for standing through the Star Spangled Banner, then it’s clear the NHL’s social justice messaging so far is either lost, or simply not strong enough. That said, there is more to come on the NHL’s social justice front, in particular with Black Lives Matter. To the Mailbag: We deal with questions about watching hockey in an empty arena, watching hockey on TV and who might the Leafs lose to the Kraken? And as a US citizen, I can't believe the special access to Canada afforded to hockey players! Though it does depend on your cable package, or how you’ve set up your TV watching.
