From Katya

Good morning everyone, I have some news for you that isn't good news. As you may have seen on Twitter, Vox media, the parent company of SBNation has laid off a great many paid employees today.

Also today, they have taken the decision to "stop supporting" most (possibly all, I'm not privy to that) NHL sites. Including this one. That means they aren't paying any of us after the end of February.

This news is new, we don't know exactly what the future may hold, but I have one request to make, if any of you are so considerate that you've been viewing this site without an ad blocker because you want to support our work, please, for your own sake, turn it on!

You may see changes in our coverage of things before the end of February, but I will try my best to keep you all updated on what our future will be.

It's not quite so long and thanks for all the fish, but we might get there.

5 weeks from now, they either go dark or some other outlet/platform scoops some of it up

Meh. I liked Fulemin's articles, but they've become pretty rare, and the rest of the content on PPP feels like its been going downhill.
