I’m sorry to the Panthers fans today…but we must be at odds, because…

“Core Values” is such a BS statement.

Where are they? Because they’re certainly not here when this decision was made.

My mom is a Special Ed Teacher, and I’m a Music Therapist that works with Individuals who have Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.

This is absolutely devastating.
Another devastating blow for the disability community as this administration cuts almost every employee responsible for administering funding & oversight for IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act).

Education should be a basic human right..and disabled kids are just as deserving.

Freida Parton, sister of Dolly Parton, asks for prayers for Dolly’s health. She says with prayers she know Dolly is going to be just fine.

I am taking this as "The Hurricanes would like the Caniacs to keep the pressure up, and to continue contacting them and their partners to make sure they don't "change direction" again"

So let's keep it going.
Regarding reports the Hurricanes have decided not to sign Michael McLeod … my understanding is the team has reversed course and backed off signing McLeod for now. Could yet change. But as of last night, anyway, no deal is imminent.

Let’s help out Vegas now!
I am a Vegas Golden Knights fan, and I signed this petition. I dont want Hart on my team. Not guilty ≠ Innocent. Please join me in signing this petition. Also share this petition so that we can pressure the team to make the right choice.

Of note

“Rod Brind'Amour's discussing Nadeau being assigned to AHL:

"It's tough because, yeah, we'd love to keep him here, but we also have to figure out what makes sense. You can see we have lots of forwards, so it wouldn't really make sense at this point with the way the schedule worked out.
If the Hurricanes do sign Michael McLeod, it will be because they don’t think fans will, in the end, actually stop coming.

They may be right. But it also feels like they’re playing with fire — and for what? A bottom-six center?

The Carolina Hurricanes may sign Michael McLeod, no matter what you think
The Carolina Hurricanes are considering signing a player acquitted of sexual-assault charges (but suspended by the NHL). Fans will have a decision to make.

You know another way to really voice your concerns besides here? Organize a protest. They are empowering. Inform media. Make signs expressing your valid concerns that you express here. Show up at Lenovo. Especially team/exec entrances. Get in the faces of players, coaches, executives, and owner.

If there’s any question as to why these players have been given a second look, it starts at the top. Once again, patriarchy ruins the party.
Following their acquittal, the return to the NHL of Carter Hart and Michael McLeod seems imminent.

I visited Carolina and Vegas — the two likeliest landing spots — to see how the teams are handling the possibility.

The two trips went... differently.

My story:

As Hockey Canada players’ NHL return nears, how will they be embraced by their new teams?
The players carry significant baggage, and signing them could come at a cost for teams that goes beyond finances.

If you haven’t already, please take 2 minutes to sign this petition.

This means a lot to a lot of good people. Whether it has an effect or not, it’s the only thing most of us can do right now. And it takes no effort at all.

If you’re not signing it, why not?
With the Canes news swirling around, for those who feel as desperate and hopeless as I do, I highly recommend signing this petition.

Make your voice heard to this organization.

PLEASE keep putting the pressure on the Canes.

Not guilty does NOT mean innocent. Innocent does NOT mean acceptable. Period. Point blank.

Just sending a message into the void to @erictulsky.bsky.social begging him not to tarnish his reputation with a signing that everyone will remember him for.

All the work you've done to empower women in hockey and tech, and strengthen the Raleigh community will be overshadowed with one move.

Hey @erictulsky.bsky.social, you should shut the door on all 5 of these players as well.

These are not people I can support in any capacity simply from reading their own testimonies and lawyer’s statements.
Briere said that Carter Hart's agent has reached out to the Flyers and told them that Hart wants a fresh start. So that door appears shut.
