In order to fill the void left by no live hockey, the NHL invented the NHL Player Gaming Challenge which will see the Vegas Golden Knights and the rest of the league compete against each other on NHL 20.
The tournament has been going on for a few weeks now with mixed results. These aren’t live contests, rather pre-recorded and edited versions and it isn’t the most captivating TV.
Granted, the most entertaining game so far has been the Seattle franchise against the Edmonton Oilers, with Seattle Seahawks Tight-End Luke Wilson proving to be comedy gold.
However, outside of that the Gaming Challenge hasn’t been that compelling, especially for Golden Knights fans.
