Common sense Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Hope Hockey Canada does something. Why would you ban the coach for a year and fine the team that much just for missing an opening ceremony? Jack Lee should use some common sense.

goalie13 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 This whole thing is nuts. Somebody has their priorities all screwed up here. Since when do you fine a kids' team for not attending a ceremony so they can study? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dittohead Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Can study After ceremony 1 year suspension is harsh though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnsey Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 so basically hockey is more important than an education. An education which will be hugely important and crucial to an individual's life when they don't make the NHL? Chances of anyone making the NHL is extremely hard. I love hockey but as far as I'm concerned education comes first. I don't really know how it works (UK fan) but the way it should be is you have to obtain and keep a certain grade to play hockey. For example, I would say(or assume) a C should be the mark that most people get. That mark should be kept with athlete's and if they ever get below that they get suspended (from games) until their mark goes up again. Ideally this would encourage students to focus more on their studies, and if they are good at hockey they will have a back-up option if something fails. (just my opinion of course).

ahzdeen Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Pretty much with everyone else. Unless you're going to the NHL and sticking there, you should probably have some sort of real world education Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sedin's 6th Sense Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 that's a load of bs right there. when has sports taken precedence over education? education is always the priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offensive Threat Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 One of the heads of Hockey Canada is Jim Travliving who of course owns Boston Pizza and Mr.Lube. He seems like a standup guy who would do the right thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
