> The invitations could lead to a delicate issue for the American NHLers because they’re all expected to return to their NHL teams Tuesday, with eight games set for Wednesday involving 12 of the United States’ 25-player roster, including Hellebuyck (his Winnipeg Jets play in Vancouver) and OT hero Jack Hughes (his New Jersey Devils host Tage Thompson’s Buffalo Sabres), as the league’s regular season resumes.
> U.S. team GM Bill Guerin, also GM of the Wild, told The Athletic via text that he’s fine with Wild players Quinn Hughes, Matt Boldy and Brock Faber going to the State of Union and White House if they want to, and he’s not sure what other teams will decide. The Wild resume the season Thursday night at Colorado.
> NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told The Athletic that players can decide on an individual basis if they want accept the invitation and then it’ll be up to their individual teams whether or not to grant permission.
They SHOULD decline but somehow I doubt they will….
I hope they decline, saying they have to focus on hockey or something. Trump disrespecting the women’s team for winning gold is so fucking typical. Saying [he has to invite the women’s team too or he’ll get impeached](https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/s/NcyNE2SF3o) or something of that nature is so stupid.
Trump desperate to display a win so he steals another one he had absolutely nothing to do with.
He’s hell bent on ruining this for all of us
With the snowstorm I’m suprised they haven’t delayed it. A lot of travel in the NE probably won’t be encouraged until Wednesday at the earliest
Trump is every day about BS so this is not surprising but it still irks me that he invited the men and made fun of inviting the women.
They are absolutely dedicated to ruining this for us. I’m disappointed but not surprised that so many players on the Olympic team are such deplorables.
It would have been amazing if one of them would have had the stones to politely remind him that the women’s team should get the same treatment because they had the same accomplishment. Quinn and Jack’s mom would have especially appreciated that.
Everyone wants to shake hands with a child rapist, right? So proud.
It’s been my assumption that if the logistics work out they would go, TBH. But I can only hope whatever better angels told Quinn and Fabes to delete their story from last night carries them to this decision because it wasn’t Wild PR because Guerin is conservative and doesn’t care about it. But there’s a snowstorm, games and time changes, Wild dudes have to deal with Colorado elevation as well.
Ideally it should be they all go or none go so it’s a united decision either way.
I’m really ready to get on with the regular season honestly.
Let me preface this by saying that I cheered for team USA, and I love America.
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I hope they don’t attend but I know they will. Gross.
So glad boldy, faber and hughes partied with kash patel essentially slapping the entire state of Minnesota in the face with everything that has been going on…love that for them!!! I was happy to see them win gold, so proud of them, then I saw those videos and was so disappointed and disgusted I saw red!! I know most hockey guys blow that way but just come on…but seriously not cool to spit on us Minnesotans you claim to love!!! Just had to get that off my chest as a wild fan and as a Minnesotan!!
Ignoring the women’s accomplishments I see.
I fucking hate this
Were the women invited? No?
That’s surprising */s*
This is all so he can use them as pawns to try and take credit for their win, and these morons are going to let him do it. Honestly regret even rooting for this team at this point.
I really hope Matt, Brock, and Quinn don’t go, but I’m not holding my breath.
Boys should go, sounds fun! Very well earned win. The 1 NHL game out of 82 can wait. You don’t get invited to the state of the Union every day. Certainly not after winning gold for your country.
Boys are probably still blasted and/or hung over.
So proud of them

if your sense of happiness is tied to your favorite hockey players political opinions you are gonna have a bad time, just saying…
reddit hates the tkachucks yet loves hughes, ignoring the fact that they are all best friends and probably more alike than not.
