    USA Tariffs and influence on NHL and Canadian players response

    Recognizing the one attribute of sports is to avoid politics, nevertheless it would be interesting and insightful to hear what the Canadian players think about the 25% tariff imposed on Canada by Trump.

    Knowing players do their utmost best at keeping personal feelings out of the locker room and from influencing the team and their performance on the ice, being a former college coach and having several Canadian friends that were NHL players, I know, at the core, people are people and they have feelings and emotions. It is often very difficult to separate being a person from being a player. 

    As the NHL is still made up of roughly 43% Canadians, even if "off the record", it might be a question that a reporter would ask a player(s), "what is your thoughts and response to Trump's tariffs". 

    Thank you.
