Masculinity and the National Hockey League: Hockey’S Gender Constructions
MASCULINITY AND THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE: HOCKEY’S GENDER CONSTRUCTIONS _______________________________________ A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri-Columbia _______________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts _______________________________________________________ by JONATHAN MCKAY Dr. Cristian Mislán, Thesis Supervisor DECEMBER 2017 © Copyright by Jonathan McKay 2017 All Rights Reserved The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled: MASCULINITY AND THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE: HOCKEY’S GENDER CONSTRUCTIONS presented by Jonathan McKay, a candidate for the degree of master of arts, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor Cristina Mislán Professor Sandy Davidson Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Becky Scott MASCULINITY AND THE NHL Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking my committee chair, Dr. Cristina Mislán, for her guidance and help throughout this project, and beyond. From the first class I took at Missouri, Mass Media Seminar, to the thesis itself, she encouraged me to see the world through different lenses and inspired a passion for cross-disciplined study. Her assistance was invaluable in completing this project. Next, I would like to thank my committee members: Dr. Sandy Davidson, Dr. Amanda Hinnant and Dr. Becky Scott. All three members provided insight and feedback into different portions of the project at its early stages and each one made the study stronger. Dr. Davidson’s tireless support and enthusiasm was infectious and her suggestion to explore the legal concerns the NHL might have about violence and head injuries led me to explore the commoditization of players. -
