Bored at work and figured it was time to hop on the tier list train. Very happy to confirm my suspicion that I have a general dislike for the majority of the NHL

Iran arrives at World Cup wearing pins of 168 schoolgirls killed by the United States

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Soccer would not exist without immigrants. Immigrants play and coach the game, work in the stadiums, fill the stands, and make celebrations like the World Cup possible. Six of the players on the US Men's National Team are immigrants.

We will not allow ICE or anyone else to sow fear in our communities — especially at this moment. As the world comes to our city, we will stand proudly with our immigrant neighbors and reject these attacks for what they are: an attempt to divide us.

[Akirano @Akirano02]

I assume OP is joking, but because there are some people out there who might actually think doing something similar to this is a viable option, just know that it would immediately make your franchise the least desirable location for every player on the planet

[blashdril @blashdril]

It would be funny if the Red Wings held onto Larkin and healthy scratched him every game until his contract expires in 2031

[Akirano @Akirano02]

His best shot at a cup might actually be to retire, become the Oilers GM, and build around 1C Draisaitl & 1D Bouchard

[Mike Bartner @MikeBartner]

Free Connor McDavid till it's backwards.

Whatta joke of a management group.

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Stan Bowman interested in hiring Mike Babock. Like attracts like.

[Akirano @Akirano02]

How the fuck does this guy still get jobs. McDavid better request a trade or refuse to play if they hire this jackass

[Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger]

Sources: The Edmtn Oilers are consulting with the NHLPA to see if there are objections that must be resolved before potentially hiring Mike Babcock. Amid allegations of invading players privacy, Babcock resigned in CBJ as Head Coach in 2023. Further investigation may be required.

@rosemoczulski1 @BombulieTrib The '26 draft class had some decent size to it, but yeah, the current crop of WBS kids leave some to be desired there. Most noticeable against a more "veteran" heavy team like the Marlies

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Every one of these players were ranked higher than #22 in my initial rankings, except Morozov who was #24. Four were in my top 15.

I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high, but I think there's a >50% chance the Pens move up at the draft.

[PensEmpire 🇨🇦 @PensNHLFan]

So based off of reports, I believe the Pens met with the following this weekend:

- Bjorck
- Lin
- Cullen
- Hermannson
- Morozov
- Novotny (I think)

Bjork is a pipe dream, Lin and Cullen I expect to be gone before 15. Would want Novotny, Hermannson, then Morozov

[Akirano @Akirano02]

What’s a foul at one end isn’t a foul at the other. Nothing is a yellow card. Despise this ref.

[Akirano @Akirano02]

I will stand by the fact that Tim Ream is still one of the USMNT's best 3 CBs. He should start. The question is just how early does he need to be subbed off every match

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Freese might as well stand behind the net

[Akirano @Akirano02]

@Encyclia_7411 @pwhl__detroit She is, unfortunately, very good at hockey. Which it seems is too enticing too pass on in the face of literally anything else. In both the men's and the women's game, apparently.

Yzerman and Larkin relationship as told by Sufjan Stevens "Michigan" song titles:

[Akirano @Akirano02]

@MikeBartner No Red Wings? You dont think they should trade Edvinsson for him?

[Akirano @Akirano02]

@WJCrankings I'm like 80% confident that the height thing has never come up with Mckenna because he skates so upright to the point that he looks a inch or two taller

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Is Braxton Ashcroft the only pitcher on the Pirates roster? What is wrong with this team

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Pirates are going to make me kill myself

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Uh oh. It looks like the Pirates of old have returned for a night.

[Akirano @Akirano02]

Not what I wanted to see today

Wishing you all the best in the #StanleyCupFinal 🏆

@JFreshHockey @rutsburgh Was there any reason for Seattle to do most of what they've done in the past?
