Another sports columnist is wrong about the NHL, what else is new?

Four years ago, newspaper sports editors were in a joyous mode. There was no need to even think about the National Hockey League Stanley Cup playoffs. The league's 30 owners had locked out their players and as far as the sports editors were concerned, the NHL fell off a cliff and thankfully would never be seen again.

Hockey in the United States was a dead sport and nothing would revive it. Of course the sports editors, most of whom have little understanding of the business of sports, were incorrect. There is global interest in hockey and hockey is a multinational business beyond the United States and Canada.

Newspaper sports editors have never liked hockey and a good many sports editors showed their distain for the sport by assigning women and minorities to cover the games. It is no coincidence in the 1980s that the NHL was celebrating diversity among the press reporting on games. There were women assigned to games as reporters.

But the truth of the matter and there should not be any ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
