We understand that many of those who read this have applied in the past. If you have previously submitted an application for PHR and are still interested, please submit it again. Many will apply, so unfortunately, we cannot respond to every applicant.
I wish I fit the requirements
I meet four of the requirements, is that close enough?
We all know who is going to apply…
Hockey Trade Rumors is my go to site for information on the NHL. You all do an excellent job and you frequently scoop sites like the Athletic and ESPN. I hope you can find some good writers.
I would use this site more if you didn’t post spoilers. I’d like someone to explain what’s the point of saying “broke his leg in yesterday’s 5-4 OT win over the Rangers”? Do you really need to mention the score?
Maybe you are being paid by the number of words in the article. If not, you should add to your list “don’t post spoilers”.
If the game is already over, it’s not a spoiler lol. Your comment makes zero sense.
Ya you’re gonna have to stay off the internet if the game was yesterday
@paw
Agreed. I have to DVR a lot of games so I just “unplug” until I watch.
That’s what I do, hence don’t visit here. But if there were no spoilers, I would. And that’s the point.
So you have visited here multiple times to tell us that you don’t visit here along with the reason that you don’t? Please tell us more.
I don’t visit during the season. During the offseason there can be no spoilers so I do.
Pretty amazing that anyone could fail to figure that out.
You are undoubtedly here during the season using a different name. Chronic complainers like you need to find things that irritate them, even if it is something as inane as “spoilers”. You need your regular fix. You are not happy unless you are miserable. Spoilers!?! Are you kidding me? You’ve got a deep bag of tricks.
I am here during the season under MY OWN name. It happens when I have no recorded games.
Pretty amazing that anyone could fail to figure that out.
Before trolling, it makes sense to read the posts you are going to troll. You would come out less of an idiot than you actually are.
