Hockey

Before we say goodbye to one of the strangest, most eventful (or event-less) years we've had to experience, let's take some time to reflect back on what happened in sports during 2020.

Mike "Doc" Emrick announced that he will be retiring from the broadcast booth after 50 years in hockey and nearly 40 of them calling play by play for NHL games.

The Vegas Golden Knights unveiled a new metallic gold jersey, the first of its kind in the history of the NHL. It will be the third jersey worn by the team.

After winning Kraft Hockeyville, the renovations to the Events Center roof are underway for the El Paso Rhinos and new LED lights will also be installed.

Believe it or not, El Paso, Texas, is Kraft Hockeyville USA. Officially named and congratulated by NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and everything.

El Paso is in the Final Four of the Kraft Hockeyville contest, with the grand prize winner receiving a $150,000 rink upgrade and the city will host an NHL game.

The Rhinos remain two-time defending Thorne Cup champions. But they're setting their sights on some new surname silverware beginning this fall: cups named Fraser and Robertson.

As more states return to normal activity, positive cases of COVID-19 continue to rise making it more of a challenge for professional sports to make its return.

The El Paso Rhinos announced they will be playing hockey this season as a member of the North American 3 Hockey League and in 2021 they will move to the NAHL.

We could be looking at a fall sports season that includes the NBA playoffs, NHL playoffs, MLB regular season and playoffs, NFL's season start, golf's resumption and college sports returning amid the coronavirus pandemic.
