Welcome back to THE DROP PASS, your week in review of everything Offside News Co. Every edition will recap hockey news, from our team-focused columns to podcasts and everything in between.

It’s getting down to the nitty gritty in Olympic ice hockey with women’s semifinals today (Monday) and men’s quarterfinals beginning Tuesday. We’re sure Hockey Twitter will be well-behaved through the knockout rounds…

THIS WEEK IN HOCKEY…

Thank you to our lovely staff for these headlines!

February is Black History Month and we wanted to highlight past articles throughout the month that offer Black perspectives on the sport and/or highlight the efforts and achievements of Black hockey players both past and present.

STICK TAPS

At Offside News Co, it is our core belief that those with a voice or platform should use said platform to support those in need. Our hearts are with the community of Tumbler Ridge, B.C. as they come together in grief and healing following the recent shooting.

See You Next Week!
