Live Qs at 5: Molinari’s answers on the Penguins

Well, if nothing else, we're a week closer to the NHL getting back into business, whether that happens next month, next fall or next year.

Should the league get clearance from medical and political authorities to open training camps in, say, mid-June, will you pay attention to what follows with the same vigor that you would in a normal season (remember those?) or would your interest in hockey drop as the temperature rises?

The idea of some team conducting a Stanley Cup parade on Labor Day -- or Labour Day, if it would be a Canadian club for the first time since 1993 -- seems flat-out weird, but these are strange times, so perhaps that fits perfectly.

Anyway, even without games, there is plenty of hockey-related fodder -- past, present and future -- for discussion, and this is the place to do it.

Post questions and observations about any of the above issues -- or anything else pertaining to hockey, for that matter -- at your convenience, and I'll respond over the course of the day.

If you’re new: Enter one question (at a time) in the comments below. When it’s done, all that will be left are the questions, my replies and any follow-ups by the original questioner. Please don’t use this the way you would an ordinary commenting thread, and please scroll through the questions already submitted to make sure your question hasn't been asked.
