Loving this, but tearing my allegiances - a daughter working for the @PWHL_Ottawa and a team in Hamilton.

BREAKING: The Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) is finalizing a deal to expand to Hamilton, Ontario, becoming the latest city to receive an expansion franchise after Detroit was announced on Wednesday morning.

Five-and-two-thirds games into this EDMvsANA series, and my main takeaway is the #Oilers are lacking the kind of grit and sandpaper that a Corey Perry or an Evander Kane bring to the playoffs. If only they had players like that …..

📘 The Spring Economic Update is here.

We broke down what is in it and what it signals about the Carney government’s priorities heading into the summer recess.

Take a read through our key takeaways. 👇

In the midst of Maul: Shadow Lord and with Mandalorian and Grogu coming up, sat down to watch Phantom Menace (for who knows how many times). For as much of this movie that just isn’t that good, Duel of the Fates makes up for all of it and then some. #StarWars #StarWarsGeek

My love letter to 80s cinema—A Sting Original.
Thank you for a decade of unforgettable films.

LOL - funny because it's true.

@ThatEricAlper That the lead singer of EMF built a solid career as a songwriter - including penning songs for Beyoncé. It is simply … Unbelievable. (I’ll show myself out)

Nine years ago, there were egregious calls - or non calls - that benefitted the Ducks. Don’t want any of that this year, for either team. Win fair and square.

[Sportsnet @Sportsnet]

Nine years ago, the upstart Oilers met the grizzled Ducks in the playoffs. Now, the two franchises will meet again — but this time, the roles are reversed. (@SportsnetSpec) https://t.co/LvH53GtbgY

I'm onboard for this.

Now that Artemis II has launched we have 10 days to get everyone on Earth a Planet of the Apes costume so we can do something hilarious when the astronauts return 😁

[Kalvin Reid @KalReid]

@VinnysCorner1 True - 5 just with my fave NHL team. Plus 2 Super Bowls and two World Series. Could probably also count an NBA, but that’s more geographic proximity. Don’t really have a favourite team in BBall.

[Montreal Expos @Montreal_Expos]

Bring back the Expos

Very much worth the time to read. #LetsGoBlueJays

[The Players’ Tribune @PlayersTribune]

Hey guys, it’s Ernie. Before the season starts, I had some thoughts for @BlueJays fans I wanted to share. Thanks for reading https://t.co/aDajNK1kJL

[Kalvin Reid @KalReid]

I wholeheartedly second this.

I've used em-dashes my whole life — they add rhythm and grace to writing. But now they're an AI tell.
Can we get a grandfather clause for those of us who were fluent in em-dashes before ChatGPT launched in November 2022?

Post-game jersey swap 😯🏈 #LetsGoOilers

Whoa.

[Siobhan Morris @siomoCTV]

WOW.

Bob Gale has resigned as Niagara Regional Chair, appointed by the Ford Government in December, Gale has faced pushback for proposing amalgamation.

@1986Mustangs Scorching. Watched both recently. The hockey in both is terrible. (One of the best things about the Shoresy TV show is they got people who can actually play the game, making the hockey scenes more realistic than anything that came before) But Slap Shot wins for being funnier.
