Coaches debated!
Managers blamed!
Ownership doubted!
Changes Suggested!
Clouds yelled at!
Dad Jokes told!
Food crushed!

Still no solutions found, but fear not, we'll keep at it!

#AmIDoingThisRight?

New inspirational sports movie:

One man. One bad idea. Zero lessons learned.

Title: Coach Me If You Can

Critics are saying:
"It’s the classic underdog story, except the underdog is accountability and it gets benched in the first act."

[OILERSLIVE 🇨🇦 @oilerslive]

Coming this fall:

A heartwarming story about one man who ignored every red flag and hired the guy everyone agreed should not be hired.

Critics are calling it, “Wait, he did what?”

The Suspension Redemption

[OILERSLIVE 🇨🇦 @oilerslive]

I'm pitching an idea for a new movie:

Everyone said hiring the coach who got suspended for being awful was a bad idea.

But one brave man looked past the facts, the warnings, the history, and basic common sense.

Title: Against All Advice

[x - Lotsy @lotsryan]

I don't often speak like this, but if this is true then everyone involved in the decision making process needs to be fired. He's not coaching anymore for a reason. Stop defaulting to the biggest brand names available based on what they did 5-10+ years ago.

I can’t stress this enough - please check your dog after walks - especially if they’ve been in tall grass or wooded areas.
Check their ears, belly, “armpits” - all the crevices.

As May wraps up, this is a reminder that June is Men’s Health Month - which strongly includes men’s mental health.

Men have been told their whole lives to “suck it up”, “boys dont cry”, “be a man”…and thats a load of shit.
All humans have emotions.

20 years later and this time I'm cheering for the Hurricanes. How the world has changed.

[WeBelieve @WeBelieveEM]

Carter Hart is about to play in the Stanley Cup Final. He was acquitted of sexual assault charges this past summer, but there is a lot more to the story. With the brightest lights now shining on him, it is important to understand the nuance of the controversial case.

“We Believe E.M” does not mean we believe every detail of her testimony. It does not mean we believe she did not make any mistakes that night. It simply means we believe she was sexually assaulted. And the evidence supports that belief.

I will leave you with some facts. This is all available if you research (tw // sa):

- There is ZERO evidence or testimony that EM ever asked Michael McLeod to invite additional men to that hotel room. McLeod never testified, and all we have is a video interview with police where he never made that claim, meanwhile LYING when he denied sending a text invite to ALL his teammates. On the otherhand, there is text evidence the following day of EM telling McLeod she did not expect more partners, and it was not disputed by McLeod.

- There is ZERO evidence or testimony that EM ever asked (or was asked) for Cal Foote to do the splits over her. Even if you believe the men’s story that she was saying “have sex with me”, she never said “teabag me”. The judge actually agreed in her report there was no consent, instead she dismissed it saying it was non-sexual based on Carter Hart’s testimony that Foote was not naked.

- In 2022, Alex Formenton & Dillon Dube BOTH CONFESSED to Hockey Canada that Cal Foote was naked during the splits. This was ruled inadmissible on a technicality. Other than Hart, no other witness dared to say Foote was clothed; they all pretended to not remember.

With this information, at the very least, McLeod and Foote are guilty:

- Foote performed a sexual act without consent. It does not make him a rapist, but it is a crime

- McLeod is an accessory to that sexual assault

If these two men were given the guilty verdict I strongly believe they deserved (even if it was a proverbial slap on the wrist; i.e. a 6-month house arrest), it would have been an amazing teaching moment for our nation while setting a modern standard for consent.

The conduct of the others, including Hart, may not have been illegal. There was certainly not enough evidence to prove it was. But that does not mean what they did wasn’t morally reprehensible. The NHL and Hockey Canada both agreed.

The NHL kept the players out of the league for months PAST the ruling, citing their own private investigation. Hockey Canada stood in the House of Commons and said “harm was caused” after paying out a civil settlement.

But what Hart did was more than morally wrong. He lied under oath to protect his teammates. This is actually perjury. The judge by law is not privy to those 2022 confessions, but we as a public are. We are allowed to pass judgement in the court of public opinion.

Hart is not a conquering hero who overcame adversity. He is a liar who abused his privilege and legal protection to obstruct justice. He is allowed to continue his career, and we are allowed to remind him of his abhorrent behaviour.

@J_Swish24 So…if that’s the measuring stick - Malkin would be considered a better player than Ovechkin cuz he has 3 cups and Ovi has 1?

What a dumb fucking comment 😂
…you know it’s a team sport right?

Connor McDavid has three 30-point playoff years in his career (one of only three players in NHL history to do this).

Nathan MacKinnon has none.

Championships are a team accomplishment.

But when you compare their playoff performances, it's not even close.
