Simple advice for parents of kids going through rep hockey tryouts right now:
Stop checking out the competition. It’s not your job to pass judgment on someone else’s child.
Focus on your own son/daughter, and when they look up, the only thing they should see is your smile.

Miller said he almost got emotional when he stepped onto the ice and heard the crowd. Said after the birth of his kids and wedding it was one of the most special things he’s been a part of.
Myers also said he had to take a moment to take it all in.

Racism is awful. Racism in sport is awful. But what IF that’s not what happened here? What IF Panetta is being truthful & his actions were misinterpreted? I don’t know Jacob at all and maybe there is more info that has yet to come out… 1/2

this is the video I was referring to. You were not with South Carolina at the time and I was seen making the same gestures to non racialized players. Again my sincerest apologies to you and your family.

As Dregs notes, some

players have become very ill.
I’m also being told that in some cases team medical staff may have gone to the homes of players to administer IV treatments.
The Vancouver Canucks received more positive COVID-19 tests on Friday evening, adding to the already eight confirmed cases among their players. In addition to the new positive tests, a strain variant has been identified.

Tonight my 13-year-old son Lukas may have played in his last competitive hockey game. They lost in a Bantam A1 final four game with a chance to go to provincials. His other sports choices could push hockey to the side in the years ahead. If so, I’m very sad... /1
