@kristen_shilton Berube broke him. Different coach, different result.

@hailey_salvian Love him. The NHL makes it really hard to love the NHL sometimes.

@dstaples Men are afraid women will laugh at them, and women are afraid men will kill them.

@MarkLazerus @AvsBernie Are you sure, though?

Kelly Pannek, part two, on how much this has been talked about in the Minnesota Frost locker room:

[Theodore Tollefson @TheodoreTollef1]

Frost assistant captain Kelly Pannek and forward Taylor Heise opened up their postgame interviews after their 6-2 win, with statements on the recent ICE activity within Minnesota.

Here’s what they said.

Pretty clear message from @PWHL_Minnesota fans prior to today’s game in St. Paul.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley: "The last 2 weeks we as a law enforcement community have been receiving endless complaints about civil rights violations in our streets from US citizens. What we're hearing is they're being stopped in traffic stops or on the street with no cause and being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they are here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints as they fell victim to this while off duty. Every one of these individuals is a person of color ... it has to stop"

[LongTime🤓FirstTime👨‍💻 @LongTimeHistory]

ICE illegally detain Minnesota city worker—a snow plow driver.

"He had every federal authorization," said boss. "We do a criminal background check of all federal documents."

He's still locked up—and has serious medical condition that requires strict medication and special diet.

"This is someone who should be here, who had every right to be here, was helping to take care of St. Paul streets, and was illegally detained."

The worker has now been sent 1,000 miles away from his family in St. Paul—to a detention facility in El Paso, Texas.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Jake Lang and his crew showed up in Minneapolis trying to march into a Somali neighborhood, screaming that “natural born citizens” should be deported to “preserve the white race.”

They didn’t make it.

And the part that’ll live forever: a self-proclaimed white supremacist clinging to a Black man for protection and survival.

You can’t script that level of irony.

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

The Minneapolis Star Tribune compiled a chilling recap of multiple incidents showing ICE agents escalating aggression toward innocent bystanders including detainments, threats of violence, and physical abuse.

This isn’t law and order. It’s state violence.

"No work, no school, no shopping." Minnesota faith, union and community leaders are planning an economic blackout on Jan. 23. https://t.co/VJN2WMhxsU

[BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom]

Is Minnesota headed for a general strike? Community groups, faith leaders, and labor unions have called for a "Day of Truth and Freedom" on Jan. 23, urging Minnesotans to refuse to go to work, school or shop in response to the Trump administration's ICE surge in the state.

[Minnesota State College Faculty @MSCFMN]

Spending on administration is up 38% since 2013. MSCF faculty? Only 5%. This isn’t a funding issue—it’s a priorities issue. Invest in the people who teach Minnesota’s workforce. #FundFaculty #MSCFStrong #mnleg @MinnStateEdu

[Minnesota State College Faculty @MSCFMN]

Minnesota State has already spent $300 million with millions still to come for the Workday system.
The result? Missed paychecks, benefit disruption, confusion, and added burdens on the people educating Minnesota’s future workforce.

[Minnesota State College Faculty @MSCFMN]

Our colleges train Minnesota’s future workforce and fuel the state’s economy. Strong faculty = strong communities. A fair contract isn’t unreasonable—it’s essential.

Contrast this with how Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand reacted to Mitchell Miller being brought into their locker room.

Leadership vs Cowardice

[Gretchen Long @grlong301]

@wyshynski @shaynagoldman_ Does anyone remember what happened when Boston tried to sign Mitchell Miller? Seems relevant.
