In today’s game in Ottawa between the Senators and Blackhawks, there have been 3 coach’s challenges after 2 periods - all claiming goaltender interference. Comforting to know that the NHL ‘s replay centre uses the scientific approach to decide…i.e. heads it’s a goal, tails it’s not. 🤡

Remember when the ads during a hockey game were for beer? Now it’s betting apps, ad nauseum.🙄

During the 2nd period of tonight’s Sens-Habs telecast, TSN colour commentator Frankie Corrado…”just drop the puck”. Exactly! Nobody pays exorbitant prices at an NHL game to watch some power-hungry linesman lecture the pros on how to take a face-off.🙄🙄

Not a unique take, but: Sports gambling has broken our brains. It's the least interesting lens through which to analyze sports, putting so much focus on the "what will happen/is happening" over "why will it happen/is it happening." It makes our conversations worse and less curious.

Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG) is trying to convince the Ottawa Charge of the PWHL that a new smaller arena will help them out somehow. When the team leaves town, they’ll wonder why…🙄🙄🙄

I like the music on Sportsnet at the end of the 7th inning of World Series

I’m relieved to see that someone at CNN was paying attention…after an earlier headline stating a settlement had been reached in the labour dispute at Air Canada, they corrected that mistake. No settlement was reached. Rather the federal government ordered flight attendants back to work. 1/2

Perhaps the most depressing part about the last couple of months is that every awful shitty thing that’s happening to this country is self-induced. People asked for this. None of it had to happen.

Did you know David Gilmour once sold his £3 million London mansion and donated every penny to a homeless charity called Crisis? He said, "I don't need all this luxury while others are fighting for a roof."
No media catwalk, no rockstar egos-just pure generosity.
He quietly changed lives❤️
