Of course they didn’t. The NHL doesn’t do anything smart. Too men out of touch old men running these big sports companies (Gary Bettman and Roger Goodell for the NFL). They mess everything up. They’re terrible marketers. And the only thing they make money from is marketing to broadcasting markets through sales of right and advertising, and guess who they sell to…you guessed it MORE out of touch old men. These guys have to go.
Thank you for uploading this. So great to watch Joe get his praise. Makes me really miss this era of Sharks hockey. It was such a great core and were honored to be fans of such a great team.
Joe is the most humble hockey player and watching him thank everyone and so attentive to details per player is amazing. Shows so much class and his speech was so entertaining. The emotions are so rare and he puts his heart on his sleeves and he is undoubtedly one of the best passers and teammates of all time.
Thank you so much Joe, what you did for the great game of hockey is unmatched!! Us here in Canada absolutely love you!!!! A hockey legend forever, and a Canadian legend forever!!
Finally!! Been waiting for this!! So proud of our Canadian greats to have his jersey lifted to the rafters. One of the best passers and teammates. Bruins screwed up big time trading him. Congrats Jumbo Joe Thornton
Patty and Joe, good ol’ Canadian boys eh I miss that era of hockey. Not too long ago in Calgary we finally sent Iggy and Kipper’s jerseys to the rafters. Patty and Joe were worthy adversaries in the Chel, and invaluable teammates on Team Canada!
You have to be joking? Man, people like you are the worst. You’ll end up sad and alone thinking and talking like that. You think I’m joking but it’s just a fact.
@AshtrayAnnie what do you mean people like me,I have an opinion you do not agree with..Go get some warm milk and your # 19 pajamas and stop the sniffles.....Have a good day....
@ It’s not an opinion my guy. He brought a franchise that has never been to the finals, to the finals. He also is one of the highest scorers of all time. And clearly you didn’t listen to any of these speeches. Do you know how many young players he inspired to play on top of that all? A lot of them wouldn’t be in the NHL if it wasn’t for him. Opinions have no place against facts. You said he did nothing for hockey. You’re as wrong as you could ever be. The fact you think that’s an opinion and not a statement is hilarious. Why are Boston fans always the worst types of people? You’re keeping that name alive, congrats. You probably never even listened far enough in to when Joe and his wife got a homeless mother of 2 off the streets and got her an apartment. Yes, if you’re wondering why you feel like crap now. It’s because your cynical approach to life and view on people has turned you into scum.
Weird how the NHL didn't upload the ceremony. Me being Canadian, this means so much to me. Thank you for uploading

I'm fkn crying. Joe made San Jose. And he's a beaut.
I remember always trading him to the Leafs from the Bruins in NHL 99 when I was a kid lol
Great ceremony. Great speaches!
Patty and Joe, good ol’ Canadian boys eh

I was in a penthouse to the left of you. I keep hearing a guy yelling now I know who it was lol
@@Chickennuggz02 If it was during the game, I think I know who you were hearing too. Someone was raging a row behind us. 😅
What a legend 🙏 what a player 🙏
He became a rabbi? Cool!
Could anyone tell me at what part does his friend/teamate tell the story of Joe and the homeless mother???
