@RussoHockey The NHL’s handling of this draft is embarrassing.

Good friend of the show Max Plante was on a different level in Albany and it wasn’t close 🔥

I kept texting my ex-coworker after she quit. Just memes. Funny stuff from the office. “You’re missing this chaos.” She’d reply with laughing emojis. We did this for months. Then she stopped responding. I figured she moved on. Made new friends. Forgot about our inside jokes.
Kept sending memes anyway. Once a week. No responses. Just kept going. Felt stupid but couldn’t stop. She’d been my work best friend. Only person who got my humor.
Six months of silence. Then one day. “I’m so sorry I haven’t replied. I’ve been in treatment. Depression got really bad after I left that job. Your memes were the only thing that made me smile some days. I’d read them in group therapy. Saved every single one. They kept me going”
I sat at my desk crying. Had no idea she was struggling. No idea those stupid memes mattered. “Why didn’t you tell me?” She replied. “I couldn’t tell anyone. But knowing you were still thinking of me. Still trying to make me laugh. It helped more than you know”
We meet for coffee now. Once a month. She’s doing better. Showed me her phone. Folder labeled “Hope.” Every meme I sent. Hundreds of them. “On bad days I scroll through these. Remind myself someone cared enough to keep trying.”
I still send memes. But now she responds. And now I know they matter more than I thought.

Tonight is the beginning of our playoff journey, a chance to etch your names into the lore of this proud franchise.

You wear the Viking horn not just on your helmet, but in your heart. Remember, Vikings were not just warriors; they were explorers, trailblazers. They ventured into unknown waters, faced storms with courage, and always, always they fought with honor. Tonight, you are those Vikings.

Tonight is about what's inside each of you—the heart, the grit, the unyielding spirit of Minnesota. Channel the strength of the Vikings of old, the resilience of this community, the passion of this state. Leave no doubt. Leave no regrets. Leave Arizona 1-0.

@RussoHockey I know this is a big ask, but can you maybe RT this and help me get some eyes on it for a dear friend of mine. She needs all the support she can get right now.
