NHL Kindness

With the NHL season coming soon, I was thinking that there can be a series of specials on how Kindness needs to be applied to the Hockey Community. These specials will feature important lessons that would be really helpful for times like these. Here are some of these lessons:

Whether you are from the Atlantic,

the Northeast,

the Central

or Pacific, Every team, athlete or fan needs an equal amount of respect.

Cities without a current NHL team, as well as original incarnations of each city's current team, deserve a chance to be recognized. Retro NHL games need to be televised more than ever to show a good Hockey history lesson.

Whether it be the NHL-WHA (World Hockey Association) Merger era,

the Wayne Gretzky era,

the "Mighty Ducks" era,

or the Millennium era, All decades need the same respect as the current era.

NHL Mascots & Cheer and Dance Squads are just as important as the Athletes & Fans. Invite them to Charities, Community Events, etc. NHL All Star Games & Championships also deserve more recognition because it wouldn't be NHL without some historical trick shots.

International Hockey Teams from around the world (both Men & Women), as well as developmental Hockey Leagues (such as the AHL), would also have a chance to be recognized. Maybe the National Women's Hockey League can also have more recognition with these specials.

Airing on the Major Sports Networks, these specials will showcase various Hockey players working together to bring Kindness to others. Whether it be helping out Communities & Recreational areas in need, taking care of the Environment, Working with Special Needs Children, Plants & Animals and Donating to the Needy, Hockey can really help bring Kindness from the Ice.
