Impressive to see how quickly Twitter lost the context in which Jack Edwards called the Polak injury bad hockey karma. That comment was made long before it became evident how serious the injury was. This is how Twitter works though. There's no context. Just viral outrage

The photos in this thread are remarkable. My grandfather, the son of Jewish immigrants, also fought in WWII. After my grandmother died, we discovered boxes of photos he took when he liberated a concentration camp. He never spoke about the war. We had no idea.

Today is the 80th anniversary of #Kristallnacht . A personal story: My grandfather fought in WWII. He never spoke about it, so we didnt know much about his time in the service, but based on the patches on his uniform, we think he did something in intel.

Sam Reinhart scored his 50th goal of the season the other night. He comes from a wealthy background--dad works in the stock market AND was an NHL player before that. We didn't get a video about Reinhart getting an unfair advantage because of his privilege. Why Hyman?

If my great-grandparents had never fled from the pogroms to America, my grandfather would have been one of the skeletal bodies in his photos, not a liberating soldier. My father never would have been born. I would not exist.

Adding that I absolutely think Jack Edwards should apologize today. But I don't think he made this comment maliciously nor should he be crucified over it. Hockey is a fast game. Live commentary is a tough business. Sometimes it takes a few moments to realize how bad an injury is
