• Hockey's "Moonlight" Graham?

There's a phrase that people use that reads "Life imitates art" when real-life events either resemble or are inspired by fictional writing or art. In the Hollywood film Field of Dreams, Burt Lancaster played the older role of Archibald "Moonlight" Graham who, which may be a surprise, was an actual baseball player. His story is told in the movie fairly accurately, and it occurred to me that hockey ...2025

It's hard to imagine that the NHL would ever find a home in Europe simply due to the NHL needing billionaires to fund teams and fans to fill arenas on a nightly basis where the sport is mildly popular in specific cities across that continent.
