How does Thanksgiving on Thursday affect Friday night's hockey games?

Again, Americans ruin everything.

I know it's not Thanksgiving there. The game isn't there.

I suspect it's at 4:00, so people can waste their money and time in the morning and early afternoon, buying poop they don't need, only because it's cheap.

Wood pallets fire sale.

Is it still called Black Friday??

The Friday after Thanksgiving is an unofficial shopping holiday in the states. Stores have huge sales.

Yea I know about black Friday. I just don't see why the game is at 4pm instead of 7pm like usual. People rather shop in the evening than in the afternoon?

God damn Nazi.

The earliest evidence of the phrase Black Friday applied to the day after Thanksgiving in a shopping context suggests that the term originated in Philadelphia, where it was used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic that would occur on the day after Thanksgiving. This usage dates to at least 1961. More than twenty years later, as the phrase became more widespread, a popular explanation became that this day represented the point in the year when retailers begin to turn a profit, thus going from being "in the red" to being "in the black"

Of course they did!
