    THG is the best. He took me from a Ducks fan to a Hockey fan. His channel is a great way to keep up with the whole league while only really watching ducks games.

      Between him and the SDPN guys I went from being just a Devils fan to a fan of the league in general. I also blame him for my jersey collection of 1 from all 32 teams lol.

      Perfect explanation of THG Channel! Hey took me from a Carolina fan and made me a hockey fan. I've always been a hockey fan obviously. But THG made me follow other teams much more closely and actually become a fan of other teams. THG helps you look at the league's bigger picture. I watch him daily during breakfast.

    Here's an idea for Bettman: THG Roadtrip. 32 cities, 32 games, get him a press pass for the booth. Could have him drop in for a quick chat or help call the game, there's a lot of options.
    I don't know how many new fans he's brought in but he's definitely helped the fan base grow

      ​@@jfayiiiFrom what I remember, Buble had been following THG for a while and reached out to the channel. Shannon initially didn't believe that it was truly Michael Buble who was trying to get in touch with him. I recall a snippet of a meetup video where Buble was taking a break on the sideline and chatting with Yvonne. He has been referred to sometimes as Shannon's "friend who shall not be named."

    The man, the myth, the legend himself. He's a stark contrast to a lot of CZcams hockey fans who wear their fandom for their teams on their foreheads 24/7. He's a hockey fan first, and a Canucks, Bruins and Stars fan second. You might remember a guy named Paul Kariya. He was from Vancouver, too. But we're going to have to have a talk after his buddy's fungi admission. Is that where THG gets all his ideas from? Oh, and shoutout to TEG for holding the fort while THG got some well deserved time out. He seems to be getting better with the career videos.
