After raising more than $10,000 over the past few weeks through hundreds of GoFundMe contributions, Spencer Callaghan’s four #MelnykOut billboards went up across the city this past Monday and with another slated to hit the streets next week, they served their purpose of driving the conversation past the conventional channels here in Ottawa to reach the national audience and have outsiders discuss the impact Eugene Melnyk’s actions and words are having on this city’s hockey fans.
Whether it’s Elliotte Friedman appearing on Calgary radio, Spencer Callaghan appearing on TSN 1200‘s ‘The Drive’ for a full hour yesterday or yours truly talking to JD Bunkis and Ben Ennis on Fan 590‘s ‘Good Show’ (shameless plug, listen here) in Toronto, every NHL market in this country has had a conversation about the #MelnykOut movement.
