Which NHL team started the tradition of hurling a dead octopus on ice before the home team’s playoff games?

I I think it's wrong to take something like an octopus and throw it on the ice we should be careful with him so they don't become endangered

It is very sad that people are so ignorant about the intelligence of the Octopus. It was a very cruel thing to do.

The plural of octopus = octopi.

There's another team where the fans throw stuffed teddy bears on the ice. They are collected and distributed to children's organizations.That makes more sense.

Susie, especially if it incites the fans to add to disregard for other creatures.
