NHL Power Rankings: Top 10 Players to Follow on Twitter

Jun 7, 2018

As the world changes, technology is slowly taking over.

Every day we get more and more players from the NHL who sign up for Twitter.

Some players do it to get followers while others voice their opinions.  These players are just people like you and I and they just want to connect with people.

The following list is of my ten favorite players to follow.  Follow me @WOLFGANGSports

@Matt9Duchene

Matt Duchene is a newcomer to twitter.

In his short time on the site, he has already figured out that people want tidbits of your life and they want to see how you live.

@Sullivan26

Steve Sullivan has less than 100 tweets but he is making up for lost time.

He likes to talk about the previous games and how the locker room feels.

That’s what people want from a pro athlete.
