The IOC’s decision to DQ the Ukrainian skeleton racer would have merit if they said look there’s a uniform and you can’t stray from that. But as you can see, that’s not the case. So they are ok with paying homage to a comic book character but not slain athletes. Absurd.

Ah man, this resonates. The Ambassador Hotel in Kingston: core memory. Don't know if they still have it, but there was a green patch of carpet on the way into the pool area with the slide. One year the staff left it open for us for a massive ministick game at like 11:30 at night

Feels like 2002 when Gretzky said he was “tired of people taking shots at Canadian hockey.”

Inside Mark Carney’s government, there’s a growing belief that if the big US automakers are slowly abandoning Canadian factories, there’s no longer any reason to do them favors. Fantastic reporting on Canada’s auto pivot by Nojoud Al Mallees bloomberg.com/news/features/… Bloomberg

Suzuki and Doughty struggled to sort out the 3-on-2 coverage on the goal that almost ended 🇨🇦’s Olympic tournament. Why? 🇨🇿 got away with having 6 players on the ice. Credit eagle eye Dimitri Filipovic for noticing, but this screen shot is from right after Harley’s shot got blocked.

Can we just appreciate for a moment how ridiculous of a deflection this was by Nick Suzuki? Guy reached out his entire wingspan, and brought that puck back from it going like 4 feet wide of the net. Insane.

Gotta say, big fan of Cheryl Pounder as a colour commentator 📈

Only way it could have gone. Another women’s Canada-USA gold medal OT moment coming up!

Honestly will say it again, 3 on 3 OT in gold medal game is such a brutal way to end it.

Only the geniuses atop the hockey establishment would spend a week gathered at a five-star resort to come up with the directive that 3-on-3 overtime should decide an Olympic gold medal. Perhaps we should let fifth graders run the IIHF rules committee. Improvement guaranteed.

Congratulations to the 3-on-3 Olympic ice hockey champions. The team that should have converted 5-on-5 just couldn't bury a good six or seven third period chances that should have won them gold. The IIHF should be ashamed.

Quite the call here on the Hughes goal: “The Americans steal the gold medal.”

This is one of the coolest social media clips I have ever seen Well done Milwaukee Brewers

Watching some spring training today with the kiddo. The best part about the new ABS system: the on-screen strike zone is finally gone 🙌
