I used to work for a hockey team and I used to live in Canada (not in that order). Now I do other stuff. benwrightatl .bsky. social

I've worked for a state government and a federal government. Both times I knew full well that meant my name, title, and salary were public records.

When Evander Kane, Zach Bogosian, and Ben Chiarot retire, leaving no Thrashers draft picks playing in the NHL, Jordan Samuels-Thomas will still be there as a referee.

Congratulations to Seattle Kraken assistant GM Alexandra Mandrycky, who was inducted into the Georgia Tech College of Engineering Council of Outstanding Young Engineering Alumni last night. She graduated from Georgia Tech in 2013 with a degree in industrial engineering.

$2 billion NHL expansion fee? That's going to hurt Atlanta's chances unless Arthur Blank or someone in that category is interested. I'm sure TNT pays well, but Anson Carter's going to have to round up some very wealthy friends.

Happy election day Canada. Get out there and vote if you haven't already. For what it's worth, I don't recommend living under a far-right gov't run by technobros. Vote wisely.

Hear me out... Get Warner Bros Discovery to be part of the ownership of Atlanta's new NHL team and call them... the Atlanta Dynamite. Brought to you by TNT of course.

The Montreal Canadiens have extra young defensemen and 4 goalies (Montembault, Dobes, Primeau and Fowler). What would it take for Edmonton to get Dobes and Arber Xhekaj? #oilers

The Stanley Cup is visiting Alpharetta for an hour next week. Why? I don't know. Hey- isn't that where Anson Carter's group is trying to build an NHL arena? Probably a coincidence, right?

Canadian customs officer in the Montreal airport- stoic, minimal questions, and then he asked where we're from. "Atlanta." "Oh. Are you guys getting another hockey team?" "We hope so." "Good luck, and have a good visit."

Bob Hartley was just hired as the head coach of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl. It would be amazing if he brought Slava on as an assistant. Surely there'd be a benefit to having a familiar face who knows the language on the bench.

Tom Cousins brought the Hawks and Flames to Atlanta. He had a gigantic impact on the city of Atlanta. wsbtv.com/news/local/atl…
