Funny Hockey
Pretty funny to me how they try and dub the fan sound in. Guess to the only TV fan it sounds great. GO TEAM GO. Listen to the back ground. Does it not sound like they are there.  Good job to the play by play commentators They make it real.
It is real time sports. This is your new normal. How much you gonna pay for your multi mil dollar player you can't see live. HMMMMM
Guess some will at home not have to wear a mask...... unless your team is out and you have to go get more frozen pizza 
Oh ya if your even watching and listening!!!!

It’s as good as it can be.
Even home team goals/ chances cheers are louder than visiting team.
Fox MLB games even have E fans in the stands.

What should be an exciting spectacle, it’s not. It’s lack lustre with no exciting atmosphere. I guarantee you that if Rask has fans cheering for him going nuts after a huge save his head would be more in the game and he wouldn’t be heading home at this point.
Quite the world we are dealing with now.
It will be nice to be out in the field come September where this whole situation won’t be front and center. Having sports back and the lame way it’s being presented currently is just a reminder. It’s not an escape at all from this gong show...

your perspective... I am enjoying seeing sports on tv even being modified etc is better than nothing...as for Rask leaving its personal and the team supports him....you and I don't have that privilidge of knowing the reason and rightfully so...there will be many adjustments in everything we do going forward...

I find it's completely ridiculous!
The only thing more ridiculous is idiots watching it?
I have ZERO interest in watching sports except maybe the RoughRiders.
I really hope Covid kills NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL.
Bunch over over-paid primadonnas.

I can totally respect your opinion and I’m glad you get some enjoyment from it. We all need something nowadays for sure.

Yikes. I wouldn’t call anyone that finds entertainment in it an idiot. That’s pretty harsh...

Watching NHL with no fans in stands? It's ridiculous.
Yes idiot might have been a little harsh...

You never watch hockey at a pub when there's no sound? Same thing really.

Yup. Just tuned into the canuck game and I really can’t get into it. Switched to a good movie Silence of the Lambs.

Without fans in the stands there is no energy, no atmosphere.....
It's millionaire players and Billionaire owners trying to "save" their gravy train.
I hope it(NBA,NHL, NFL, MLB) never comes back and fades into history....

That point, I won't argue, this version of playoffs is all about the league and the owners, not about the fans.
