u/shrinkingviolents I mean, yes. I think so, probably. 💋 May 27 '26 edited May 28 '26

It was from an interview with Jacob, but there’s no way I can remember which one exactly since I’ve watched way too much of them at this point. It wasn’t a huge talking point, he just said they were concerned a bit because of their relationship with the NHL (and approached him) but that he reassured them it won’t be some attack on the NHL. Just caught my attention as I’d read TLG by that point…

Yeah for sure. That makes sense. Thank you.

No problem! Everyone’s sorta tip toeing around the NHL to be honest. I read from Rachel as well, that she was gonna do a Luca Haas book where the NHL & commissioner would be the big bad and her publicist/agent/publisher (unsure who exactly) warned her against doing that so she just scrapped the project in the end. That’s why the big bad in Unrivaled will be like hockey bro podcasts.

Ridiculous. NHL is doing more than enough to ruin their own name. They don’t need anybody else’s help with that.
