Every player playing organized hockey must pay a fee to Hockey Canada. They are supposed to use the money to run the organization. The organization, Hockey Canada sets out rules, like age groups, equipment needed like helmets and visors and the younger players have to wear neck protectors. Hockey Canada sets out the hockey schedule and regulates the referees. Referees all have to be sanctioned. Coaches must be screened so no pedophile gets in the room. You need rules and this is all good.    

     This must be a lucrative business as hockey Canada had a slush fund for hush money when some junior team did a gang bang on some hooker. You took money from all the little kids in Canada to pay hush money to some hooker! Yikes!!! That’s some way to get a bad name!!!

      About ten days ago a hockey player in England, Adam Johnson, has died after getting his neck slashed by a skate while playing the game.

       Now Hockey Canada, this is where you can stand up and be counted for doing the right thing! Make it mandatory that all players in organized hockey must wear a neck protector!!!
