I saw this Calum Ritchie shootout goal last night against the 67s and it was ridiculous

Calum Ritchie is a magician �

I sent this in and got the call. My last cartoon, I think, in the Chronicle Herald. It's not published yet.

People in Alabama who were on the verge of starting a family are now reeling because right-wing extremists have suddenly blocked access to IVF. It’s outrageous. And Donald Trump set the stage for this disaster by stacking the Supreme Court with radicals who’d overturn Roe.

Nex Benedict may very well be the victim of hateful rhetoric pushed by LibsofTiktok & OK Superintendent Ryan Walters.

What a wonderful post game interview by Terry Ryan. Take the 15 minutes, it's really something.

to those questioning Jerod Mayo’s lack of experience as a coordinator…

This is a great piece on how Aaron Rodgers, one of the greatest QBs I have ever seen, has become a scam artist, and how the Jets poisoned themselves by buying in. He really did sort of follow in Brett Favre's footsteps, as it turns out

"Blame a woman for a man's failure" is one of the oldest, most harmful misogynist tropes in our culture, and even if you're just "joking," it's stupid and I won't entertain it. And I definitely won't entertain it if you are being serious.

[Chris Towers is @cptowers.bsky.social @CPTowers]

I will entertain many inane, silly arguments, but "sports team is losing because one of its plays is dating a famous lady" is not one of them. It's so obviously stupid and bogus and I just do not have any patience for it anymore.

Logan Shaw opened the scoring yesterday as the Toronto Marlies lost 4-3 to the Belleville Senators in some AHL north division action.

Shaw is looking for back-to-back 20 goal campaigns and is off to a tremendous start, scoring 10 goals in only 22 games so far this season.

If you need proof that the minutiae of policy make a difference, look at the difference between Canada and UK here.

I was on this plane, present at both the aborted & final departures. No 🇮🇳 agent or dog set foot on board.
Postmedia did not send a reporter on this trip, instead relying on non-credible rumours.
This is a low for Cdn journalism. It’s embarrassing that it was published.

Watching the Pride debacle unfold last week with the NHL proves one thing: The NHL is that bully in the playground- Once you stand up to it, it capitulates. Now we have Senior NHL execs and their minions try and act like it was their doing, it wasn’t ! It was the public uproar and courage of 1 NHL player. Please pay attention to the hypocrisy & let’s continue to use our collective voices to push for what’s right.

[Paul Campbell @WayToGoPaul]

What really saddens me about the Pinto situation is that the league’s primary interest in stopping players from gambling isn’t to protect the integrity of the game for its fans. It’s to protect the integrity of the gambling industry it’s crawled into bed with.

[Sam @samanthacp_]

there is not a single nhl panellist that would ever do this and if anyone did, the replies would be full of the dumbest people in the world complaining about sticking to sports

[Sara @SaraCivian]

Mad respect to all the players putting $ where there mouths are when it comes to pride tape. As I've said, various players/coaches have expressed to me one on one that LGBTQ+ rights are an issue near and dear to them, but hockey culture makes it hard to speak up. Things changing

[Brian Burke @Burkie2020]

This decision has stripped clubs of a powerful community outreach tool and removed meaningful support for Special Initiatives, all to protect a select few who do not want to answer any questions about their choices. I hope the NHL reconsiders in order to remain a leader in DEI.
