Remember how great Hockey Night In Canada was? Little boys could watch their favorite players, see their favorite uniforms, and in the intermission play mini sticks and dream of being those players someday. You miss that?

Now imagine the same thing, but for little girls.

I’m the guy at NHL HQ who’s in charge of making sure all of our major events get overshadowed by things in other sports, they gave me a huge raise for putting the season opener at 5 pm on a weekday at the same time as Game 1 of the MLB playoffs

I am embarrassed for hockey fans responding poorly to the news. The PWHL being on HNIC should be nothing but gratitude and excitement.
These women are the bedrock of Canadian sport. Fantastic athletes and brilliant women.
We are so lucky to witness their greatness.

[Ryan Lund @Ryan_Lund]

A reporter who doesn’t regularly cover the conference is the perfect person to ask important questions without fear of reprisal. It doesn’t matter if Powers declines to answer. That’s an answer.

[PaulShaheen @PaulShaheen]

Per a reliable ROI source who has spoken to someone very close to the ASU hockey program:

~An ASU player has said that the August 20 workout was as brutal a workout as he has ever experienced, and that after the first (previously reported) 20 minute water break, players (in fact) were told that any future water that day had to be “earned.”

~The situation is beyond difficult for the players because they are so afraid to say anything negative about the coaching staff or potentially lose ice-time or even their scholarship.

Like I said, here we have a company creating viruses and malware but gets to market it’s products as machine gods and redirect the narrative away from accountability and being held criminally liable to making themselves sound like concerned citizens, with everyone parroting their CEOs 🙄

“But in general, take my advice, when you meet anything that is going to be Human and isn’t yet, or used to be Human once and isn’t now, or ought to be Human and isn’t, you keep your eyes on it and feel for your hatchet.” - C. S. Lewis
