After running a NHL team in Florida, @thatcamlawrence & I led a deep tech venture fund in Brooklyn as CEO & GC where we did a lot of work optimizing cutting edge AI models.

Talked here w @ethan_sears about how some of that thinking could help NHL teams leverage AI tools 🏒💻

[Ethan Sears @ethan_sears]

All year, I kept reading stories about AI and wondering how it would impact hockey. So I asked some people about it who are much smarter than me.

If Connor Hellebuyck returns to Winnipeg, the Jets should invoke Article 15.13(c)(ii) & (v) of the NHL CBA to do the following:

1. Delay paying him until THEY deem him fit and ready to play

and then

2. Impose a disciplinary suspension of reasonable length b/c he skipped camp

@benyamen Agree. Historic season. Best story. If not now, a WR will never win this over their QB.

@RyanPaganetti @CoachDanCasey A CFL game ended today when Toronto ran a QB sneak 3x in a row from the 1 and didn’t get across…update that model eh

@RyanPaganetti Have you checked CFL data? So much more motion pre-snap + wider field…..

I believe Steve is 100% correct that teams are thinking this way.

@PierreVLeBrun @domluszczyszyn What about a 1-year 12-14M ish deal to punt the cap problem to 27-28, followed by a 15M++ AAV max term extension on 1/1/27?

Jalen: "When Josh honestly missed the layup. I'm not even trying to be funny. Usually I joke about that. Josh is on the floor kind of like holding his face and like me KAT and Jose just ran up to him and said get up, next play. I think that play really embodies this team"

@EJHradek_NHL 1000%. Maybe Rod can coach the Blazers too now? 🏆🏆

Breen is so good. Ditto, Brunson. #Knicks

[Fullcourtpass @Fullcourtpass]

Carmelo Anthony was yelling out instructions and observations to the Knicks players during game 4 and told them the offensive rebound would be there right before OG Anunoby game winner, per @ramonashelburne

"Coming out of that timeout, I made eye contact with them and was yelling 'The offensive rebound is there! Somebody go!'
"I didn't know who was going to go. But I just kept yelling, somebody go!"
