Colorado Avalanche: Coronavirus Making Hockey Sticks Scarce

After the Colorado Avalanche beat the LA Kings last weekend, Kings goalie Jonathan smashed his stick over the net. It exploded. Obviously, he won’t be using that stick again.

In the normal order of things, that’s no big deal. NHL players are rich, and they don’t have to pay for their equipment anyway.

However, when I watched Quick smash his stick, I blurted, “What if you can’t get anymore?!”

Right now, you can’t turn on the news or visit social media without hearing about the coronavirus. The virus that started in China is threatening to become a pandemic.
