Interesting. Really.
The NHL has officially called off its schedule, and to celebrate, the New Jersey Devils released a very comical video featuring their defenseman. Dougie Hamilton As a professor.
The NFL has gone all out when it comes to schedule announcement videos, creating a thoroughbred-like competition between all 32 teams in the league to see who can create the best video that will take sports blogs by storm. The NHL doesn't have the same vibe, but who's to say it won't happen one day? (Related: Nashville Predators go full nuclear after acquiring Stamkos, Marchessault and Skay on first day of free agency)
Insert New Jersey Devils.
The iconic hockey franchise decided to take Dougie, give him a fun mustache and eyebrows, and have him do a bit of acting as Professor Dougie Hamilton.
Yeah, and he's not such a bad actor.

LOL…the Florida Panthers vs Carolina Hurricanes segment blew me away.
Speaking of hurricanes, follow me on Twitter @AndrewPow3ll as I'll be covering hurricane season in its entirety. *Shameless advertising*
It's unfortunate for Jamaica considering what's happening in the Dominican Republic right now. A direct hit would be terrifying! https://t.co/KGZvkSAzvv pic.twitter.com/QgeXvUeqT1

Now, back to hockey, specifically my Florida Panthers…I would like to declare South Florida the Hockey Town, USA.
” Panthers Over the team's long history, it has had an impact on the local economy of at least $110 million over the past two seasons. @NHL Make the playoffs.”
Hockey Town USA 🇺🇸 https://t.co/S88iLdy3g8

I still can't get over how crazy that is… but can they release a schedule reveal video like the Devils did? *LOL*
