As a general rule of thumb for writing, whether it's crafting NHL articles or simply composing an email for your supervisor, it's always important to check your spelling and grammar to ensure that you don't embarrass yourself in front of the world.
This principle applies to everyone, especially when dealing with proper names, such as NHL players on calendars. Connor McDavid, the current superstar of the NHL and the face of the league, experienced an embarrassing labelling issue when an NHL calendar misspelled his name for the year 2024.
Once the error was discovered, the calendar's price was reduced by 30%, and a promotional code for the Beauty website was shared.
Likely, the individual responsible for the final edit of this calendar is no longer employed with the company. Depending on how many units were sold, this calendar might become a collector's item, as such mistakes are unlikely to recur in the future.
With McDavid sidelined due to an upper-body injury, the Oilers will be on the road, facing the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday, October 24th. The game is scheduled for 9:00 PM Eastern Time.
