Day 5 without hockey. We’ve forgotten the sound of skates on ice. How many teams even are there in the NHL? What’s goalie interference? Oh wait, we never knew that.
Well folks, they cancelled sports. This week we talk about the news on everyone’s mind: the coronavirus. But don’t worry, it’s not all pandemic talk! We also talk the forgotten Leaf to Leaf, weird NHL wedding traditions, and how we imagine the Leafs are handling quarantine.
Finally, we cast the NHL into different TV Tropes because what are we if not a bunch of tried and true archetypes.
