This is absolute garbage. I - wrote more about it, but needless to say, the NHL are trash for making this decision. Inclusion is incredibly important and all this does is tell an already marginalized community that they aren’t welcome. Hockey is for everyone. Everyone regardless of who they are should be able to lace up their skates and play.

There’s been a lot of talk about owning your purchases. This is the perfect example why.

For some shows it might not matter. There have been plenty of shows I’ve been luke warm on and maybe don’t care if it disappears. But there are plenty of go-to shows that would be nice to always have access to. This is why I’ve been buying the DVD/Bluray sets of various shows over the last few years. It’s also why I’ve been buying more music. It’s nice to know that movies, shows, & music I like can’t be pulled out from under me.

Streaming might have it’s place, but it also has its downsides.
