2022-2023 Around The League

I genuinely can't tell if this is real.

I'm getting my seven chuckles. This was bound to happen eventually. It's a good thing that the NHL is hiring women, but it also means women are gonna end up fired. It's the nature of the beast.

I legit read this as "nature of the breast" the first time. I dunno why.

The "diversity" woman hired by the Canucks got fired.

Didnt last long...she was hired in early 2022. Not sure what she did but she deleted her twitter account (30k followers) and the team is refusing to comment.

Diversity Beacon Rachel Doerrie Apparently Fired by Canucks

One of the Vancouver Canucks symbols of diversity, Rachel Doerrie, hired by President of Hockey Operations Jim Rutherford early in 2022, has moved on from the hockey club. The reason for her apparent dismissal are not clear. It’s believed the decision was made at the highest levels of the...

"Diversity woman" as if she's not one of the most intelligent and quite well connected people in the hockey world. Her credentials at the age of 26 are incredible. If the Canucks upper management can't handle someone who doesn't abide by the old boys hockey culture then I hope they enjoy toiling in the Calgary zone. These guys just can't take being told "that's a bad idea" as if Rutherford didn't tank the Penguins after their back-to-back Cups.

Do you know something that we don't?

There it is! The classic you hate women response. Lol. It's funny cause the Canucks and media made a production out of announcing these hirings, for the Twitter clout, and now they're quietly letting her go while giving no details, likely to hide any blowback on her or the team. That's funny to people who aren't all hung up on the weird socio political parts of this stuff.

But you do seem hung up on it.

Since it's bigger news when a women gets hired for these roles it will be bigger news when they get fired as well.

I guess when these events are met with equal indifference as when men get hired or fired, we have inched closer to equality.

They labeled her that. Not sure why people are offended by it.

Apparently something happened also at old job with the NJD in 2017.

“There was a long long time where I thought I was not going to get another chance to work for an NHL team again after what happened in New Jersey,”

I guess they expect a lot of booing and now they can just say people love their mascot.

Seattle was the saddest metro area in the nation last month, survey shows

In the warmer months, we could easily socialize and exercise outdoors, where the risk of virus transmission is much lower. Those things aren't nearly so pleasant in the cold and damp. We're spending more time inside now, and more time...

Subban seems like a safe choice if the Avs really wanted to fill JoJo's role.

Avs can't really claim anyone and send them down to the A

I must be missing something. Why are we unable to do that? Do you think he'll get claimed before he reaches us? I could see that happening.
