It is another day without any sports or the Vegas Golden Knights to keep us entertained, and it is fair to suggest that a few of us may well be starting to climb the walls.

With the sports world and a large portion of the population in lockdown in order to combat the coronavirus crisis, we have had to get used to the Vegas Golden Knights being on hiatus.

It hasn’t been easy with many of us clinging to sports for comfort, but we will get through this together one day at a time.

Let’s delve in…

TV

nhl.com – The NHL launched a fantastic service last week called ‘Pause Binge,’ which features a plethora of highlights and memorable moments from both the recent past and from the league’s vintage years.

Being a New York Rangers fan, I’ve watched Mark Messier‘s 500th goal a few times already, while there is a load of classic Stanley Cup Final games to sink your teeth into.

Also on nhl.com is a load of mic’d up content coupled with some fascinating GoPro features, while you can also watch full-length recaps of any Golden Knights game this year.

NHL On NBC – With no games at the moment, NBC is doing a stellar job of keeping the hockey coverage coming.

Today, and as part of NBC’s Hockey Week In America celebration, they are showing some classic Playoff Rivals contests, including Game 3 between the Penguins and the Flyers in 2012.

Wednesday we will be treated to classic outdoor games, cup clinchers will be shown on Thursday, Playoff Heroes will get their moment in the spotlight on Friday, you can feast on classic battles between Sid and Ovi on Saturday and then on Sunday NBC will show Game 7 OT games.

NBC is also doing a fantastic job of reliving each moment on Twitter, and you can follow them here in order to satisfy your hockey cravings.
