@Jake_Atsby left out the part where these two guys were teammates in SJ until the 21-22 season! 😞

@theMattMarr I just recently watched St Elmo’s fire. It doesn’t really hold up, it’s seriously weird, dated and cringey AF! Rob Lowe is gorgeous but his character is NOT 😳😬
Such a Bettman-era garbage response to controversy and criticism. His idea of leadership is to ignore and bury serious issues: transphobia, sexual abuse and subsequent coverups, player safety, etc. This clown can’t retire fast enough.
The NHL's ban on players wearing specialty warmup jerseys has a direct impact on charities who benefitted from game-worn auctions and artists from marginalized communities who designed these sweaters.
How some of them reacted to the ban, in their words:

@RyanHockeyGuy I really wonder how fans in other divisions would feel if two teams if two expansion teams were added in such a short period of time, with such a huge leg-up in terms of their rosters? They'd be pissed too, and want the NHL's cap rules to apply to everyone the same way.
@RyanHockeyGuy I think fans in the Pacific Division have every right to be bitter. We had two expansion teams added to our division in five years, both of whom got to benefit from a type of draft that no other previous expansion teams had ever had benefit of using in the NHL's history.
@RyanHockeyGuy But I think it's no coincidence that since 2016, Vancouver, SJ, LA and Anaheim have all been struggling and haven't been able to recover in the standings, and while it cannot be blamed 100% on the expansion teams, it's very much a factor.
@RyanHockeyGuy Fortunately I think owners learned their lesson after the Vegas expansion draft when it came time for the Seattle draft (when Eastern Conference owners realized that there could be an actual threat during the playoffs), because their thinking was short-sighted.
@RyanHockeyGuy Ownership in other divisions exposed players with the caliber and experience that expansion teams don't normally get, and as a result it has been a huge disadvantage for teams that are dealing with rebuilds, aging rosters and working under the salary cap limits.
@thevanishedpod Olivia’s story is heartbreaking. She and her family deserve our empathy. Her story is a terrible reminder of how end-stage capitalism has destroyed communities. Abject poverty is why cases like hers remain unsolved.
@Sunny_sf@SanJoseSharks@sjbarracuda@jbecher The tactic we used for getting our rep to respond to our questions was calling the general line and attempting to talk another rep to buy our next ticket pack. The original rep called back immediately 😆
@NBCSSharks Anyone working for this team over a prolonged period would lose their cool at some point. Totally understandable and human reaction. It’s beyond frustrating and demoralizing.
@jbecher I’m really curious why the SAP center is now using ticket scanning machines at the doors. Staff cuts? The machines are not working well and causing so much backup and fan frustration at the entrances. What can be done?
@DanRusanowsky@NBCSSharks please stop following this hate-spewing monster. He’s not part of our SJS community and this kind of rhetoric has no place in our sport.
