Given that there’s so many fake NHL-related accounts out there (as entertaining as they might be) here’s the start of a legit list of mainstream hockey media Twitterers that people might like to add to their accounts:
- Cassie Campbell—(CBC)
- Elliotte Friedman—(CBC)
- Jeff Marek—(CBC)
- Scott Morrison—(CBC)
- Scott Oake—(CBC)
- Kelly Hrudey—(CBC)
- Hosea Cheung—(24 Hours)
- Jason Botchford—(Vancouver Province)
- George Richards—(Miami Herald)
This list is only a starting point from a quick glance at my own account. Can you suggest some others? Surely someone at TSN is twittering hockey talk! Or at Versus? Or NBC? Beat reporters at other city newspapers?
Updates: Suggestions from the comments and from (who else?) other Twitterers --
- Bob McCown—(Fan 590)
- Aaron Portzline—(Columbus Dispatch)
- Tom Reed—(Columbus Dispatch)
- Carrie Milbank—(NHL.com The Hockey Show)
- Damien Cox—(Toronto Star)

Wait, there are fake NHL twitter accounts? This is an outrage! I hope some brave hockey blogger fraud takes a stand against this.
The Star’s Damien Cox is on now: http://twitter.com/DamoSpin
