@akaRCN Classic Oilers blunder, never play your young guys and then wonder why they pan out elsewhere.

"but im a white guy working on ai"

you can only fucking lol at something so incomprehensibly ignorant and out of touch

let me get this straight–

you were born and raised in quebec, and had the good fortune to study at mcgill - literally one of the world's best universities - for less than $5000 a year.

then you did graduate studies at waterloo - canada's top school for computer science, and earned a masters in maths and a phd there.

you then went on to move to America, work for Google, and later started your own ai company.

and the narrative you want to weave around your upbringing and training is that you ESCAPED canadian socialism?

so the socialism was good enough for you to grow up safe, have healthcare, receive a literal world-class education that helped you into one of the top technology firms in the world, but is also so bad that america has a moral imperative to ensure you, a technologist working there, should be granted permanent residency.

and if your lack of gratitude for your upbringing wasnt enough, you were promoting a presidential candidate who was vehemently opposed to immigration – while you, an immigrant, were staying in their country with a temporary visa.

i guess you can be smart enough to work on ai and quantum computing but still be dumb enough to not only think these things, but actually post them on twitter expecting sympathy

@IanCopeland5 Unfortunately…

@AzorcanGlobal Potential franchise altering trade for the team that gets him. Worth the swing anyways.

[Indianapolis Jones @BlakeYuill1]

@qauckenbush17 If you watch the draft day interview, the media asked Tyler Wright if they liked Wallstedt and he essentially scoffed and said no.

It’s been a while since I watched it, but I remember being annoyed by the clip.

[Indianapolis Jones @BlakeYuill1]

@jimmathesonnhl Yeah management is frequently bad at hiring and makes mistakes constantly. Doesn’t mean you need to keep the mistakes around.

[Eric Nuttall @ericnuttall]

You know things are bad when even Fatih Birol of the IEA is saying that Canada needs to get its act together and start developing more oil projects!

[Austin Hockey🍁🇨🇦 @AustinHockeyYT]

This isn't just one bad year. The PK has been brutal for two years now. 5v5 goal differential has plummeted every year since he took over. He shuffles lines far too often. Overplays his top players. Team has no defined identity. Role players don't know their roles. He stinks.

[Kevin McCurdy @KevinMcCurdy]

I think I know who "Bob" is talking about here.

Tyler Dellow is the most obvious one, and before him there was a guy who has won a ring in Washington, Tim Barnes. Both of these guys are smart AF, and are gridlocked in their current organization. Both have strong ties to Western Canada.

The key here is unearthing more Podkolzin's (or even better versions of him) for minimal $$$. It is possible. You can run back a big chunk of this team, you just have to make a couple clever moves, and have the vision to find those players.

[Shayna @shaynagoldman_]

There is no bullshit or hockey speak here — it’s a star player clearly addresssing the McDavid contract timeline and having a total grasp on the pressure of this situation. And even if management gets the message here from Draisaitl, I still don’t think Bowman can fix this.

[Don Blake @SportsThor]

Most important offseason moves:

(1) Fire Knob and Stuart
(2) Trade Nurse
(3) Replace Jarry
(4) Get an elite top 6F

Whit going for the ducks, 2 mutts retweet on my timeline, nightmare fuel.

The "all natural" "eat organic" antivax crowd doesn't have an answer for this.

If we don't need vaccines and medications, then why did humans die at 35 years of age for 99% of human history?

We now live to 75 years on average.

Could SCIENCE have anything to do with it?

[JFresh @JFreshHockey]

What a season for Evan Bouchard

[YIMBYLAND @YIMBYLAND]

I'm starting a list. What are some other examples of policies that cause wild abnormalities like this?

[Indianapolis Jones @BlakeYuill1]

@IcyVert Hell yeah
