Yes we had a VERY good conversation and TOGETHER we’ll continue to work on making our game better on AND off the ice.

This afternoon,
@AnsonCarterLA
, somebody I do have great respect for, and I had a good, healthy conversation. We apologized to each other and are ready to move on.
It’s time to tone down the rhetoric and put the focus back on the game in a respectful and inclusive manner (1/3)
Watching the
@NHLBruins
game and I heard the
@Canucks
game analyst say he “hated Brad Marchand” and Canadian hockey fans wonder why
@nhl
players don’t want to play in Canada. It’s because it’s not just about the game. It’s always personal with some of the media coverage there.
An all female
@Nhl
broadcast on International Women’s Day is cool. However when it comes to increasing diversity in our game I don’t think we should limit our efforts to increase minority or female participation to JUST one month or one day!

I grew up watching Hockey Night In Canada listening to Bob Cole so my standards might be higher than most hockey fans. Now I’m in the business I’ve had the pleasure of working with two of the best ever to call an NHL game. The late Dave ‘The Voice’ Strader and Mike Doc Emrick.
We all know Willie O’Ree is a trailblazer and a living legend. Did you know that he’s also a candidate for the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal? It’s the highest civilian honor that congress can give
I don’t think I’ve EVER EVER anticipated a prospect getting called up more than Shesterkin after watching him play and post

hosted a clinic at our training center with T.E.A.M. Hockey and Ice Hockey in Harlem.
So grateful to these programs for providing kids access to equipment, ice time + instruction so they can get acquainted with the game we love.
The Willie O’Ree Congressional Gold Medal Act would honor Willie for his extraordinary contributions and commitment to hockey, inclusion, and recreational opportunity. Since 2019, momentum’s been building on both sides of the aisle. Let’s get it passed!!
Annnnnnd this is what I was talking about with my comments last night!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@ArizonaCoyotes
There’s a lot of performative activists out there faking it until they make it 👀 but I’ll always salute those actually WORKING on CHANGE!!!
CALL TO THE HALL? Willie O'Ree is crossing his fingers for Tuesday. An incredible life dedicated to hockey is deserving of the game's ultimate honour:
#TSN
Willie’s accomplishments as the NHL’s first Black player and the leader of ‘Hockey is for Everyone’ programs for diverse kids changed hockey and American history forever. Share why you think Willie deserves the Medal using

sounder. There’s zero correlation between how hard you crank it and the noise because Luke Kuechly almost ripped that thing off last game and it made the same exact sound 😂😂😂😂😂
College hockey is about learning in the classroom but more importantly constantly learning and growing off the ice away from the classroom with professors like
