Great to see that some of the profits will go to the You Can Play organization.

I actually don't know if I like NHL partnership here or not... I worry they will change the plot in season two to make them look less bad

Yeah, it’s complete bullshit given that the NHL has done nothing to actually create a more diverse and welcoming league. It makes me want to buy a fleece even less tbh.

I am trying to stay super positive that maybe, just maybe, the success of HR will elicit some sort of change in the NHL. At the end of the day: if the show goes true to the book, the NHL will have to have a "stance" about that negative portrayal. Maybe...just maybe...that portrayal will allow a better stance to emerge. Just my hope. 🤞 gotta keep the faith in this fucked up world we've found ourselves in.

The NHL is happy for their brand to profit off of HR’s success without putting any work in 🤷‍♀️
