New Brattle report: Europe could get much farther pivoting to "clean flexibility" than it will trying to find alternative gas suppliers.

Venues and men's teams tout their support for women and women's hockey each March, but the rest of the year they wipe the slate, and in the PWHL's case, the ice clear.
