Before you sign off for the weekend, consider checking out the Workrate Hockey newsletter. Mikko Rantanen gets more enemies, the Canes dodge a bullet that drills the Rangers in the forehead, and a Song of the Day you probably haven’t thought of in 30 years. workrate-hockey.ghost.io/workrate-hoc...

This is awesome; watching Hyan in DPW I thought she deserved a bigger spotlight. I’m glad AEW is paying attention (and cheers to Nixon Newell and Miranda Alize for opening that door)

I mean, of course. Player safety is an illusion.
No further discipline is expected to come Rantanen's way for boarding Romanov.

Also speaking of tickets-this offer for tomorrow is still good. Lowers/Club Seats for $100. Uppers for $37. The uppers are almost out. Again the Hockey Fights Cancer game, always a special one. If Saturday is too expensive then maybe this is your best bet hurricanes.spinzo.com/carolina-hur...

Brooksie was annoying as hell as a Canes fan (“Candy Canes” 🙄) but there’s no question he was passionate about the sport and was incredibly important for hockey media in New York. I popped when he slipped into my DMs once to talk about CBA during the pandemic. A major loss.

It still boggles my mind that AEW is giving this card away on free TV. I mean, I’m appreciative, but holy shit, man.

A Kendall Windham/Steve Casey 25 minute match just seems like a glitch you’d have running TNM with too many plug-ins.

No shit. I understand there’s a literal transaction. The “automatic” meant that there wasn’t another waiver process needed. There’s no need to be pedantic, which you are awesome at and have been doing for *years*, searching out people talking about the CBA to insert yourself where you weren’t asked

If you’re curious why the Canes din’t go hard after Marco Rossi (#23) this offseason, this might be a hint as to why. Brind’Amour would have put him on the 5th line after that - dude should have been charged admission the way he watched Blake coast past him.

In hindsight, Staal punished Pitlick because they knew the NHL wouldn’t.
I keep thinking of that game 3 in FLA where Tkachuk went after Aho late in the game and national press (Biz esply) was shocked how there was no reaction from the Hurricanes, questioned the team's culture?
I think maybe they chewed on that all summer.

Would Mamdani's platform do as well everywhere in the country? Probably not. But you know what I think would? How clearly he did not care what Republicans and conservative media thought of him. He knows he'll be called a Commie by virtue of being a Democrat so he just does his thing.
