Can't think of anything meaner to say about Team Canada right now than "they kinda look like the Hawks"

Do the Hawks have a true "shutdown" D pairing in Vlasic and Crevier? I decided to take a glance at the numbers and see what they suggest.

Oh my God

If China took away the Stanley Cup, how would Canada even know?

Can confirm!

Anyone make a Drake Maye/Tony Eason joke yet?

Bears/Steelers '92? The Mike Singletary retirement game??

Boiling nuanced things down to a binary discussion isn't always the best strategy but when one side has Jack White and the other has Kid Rock, I know where I'm going.

A few weeks without Blackhawks hockey are upon us, so some thoughts on where we are now and what else we might need to see before this season ends:

The Reinsdorfs are slumlord owners of a poverty franchise. Adam Silver needs to step in and make them sell the Bulls, there is no other way to restore dignity to one of the league's great markets.

Jessie Diggins, Olympic cross-country skiing gold medalist, from the Twin Cities: “I want to make sure you know who I’m racing for…”

Finally blocked out the time to watch this whole thing & you should too. It's long. Go make some popcorn. Try not to throw it when you get excited (because hell yeah). Overwrites some outdated info that made me less optimistic than I should be about our future (& righteous ire re: what's in the way)

JUSTIFIED “FUCK ICE” CHANTS #AEWDynamite

New documents show a raid on a South Shore apartment complex was prompted by claims that immigrants were squatting in units — not that it had been taken over by Tren de Aragua — and was blessed by the complex's owner, @melissa-sanchez.bsky.social & @jodiscohen.bsky.social report for @propublica.org

Saw a few people sharing this over the last few days. Finally took the 90ish minutes to watch and it's so damn good.

The harmonica lollllll

Free post to kick off the week, a treatise on Artyom Levshunov's stalling out, and what it means for the Hawks, and why no one wants to see what's out on the ice instead of fantasies in their head. sam-fels-but-whos-buying.ghost.io/the-levshuno...

@realfansprogram.bsky.social I assume someone's sent this your way by now

The most jarring part about this is seeing all the NHL players (who are also pro athletes) sorta look like a team full of kickers when they put on NFL gear.

For @cnn.com, a story about gambling addiction, gambling sobriety and how that changes many young men’s relationships to friends, family, and sports fandom. www.cnn.com/2026/02/01/s...

PREVIEW: There's only one NHL game this evening and it's between two teams trending in opposite directions.

there are so many HORRIBLE people that need to go what the fuck is this shit

i have to say, Death is doing a horrible job lately. you're taking the wrong people! STOP IT

Pope Leo when he sees a Packers jersey

Holy shit minus-EIGHT?!

Didn't know Moby had taken over as the Penguins head coach.

Really thorough and interesting piece. As the story mentioned, Tillman was in the FBI for 8 years before resigning.

lmaooooooooo

Just noticed my work latop has a freaking CoPilot button on it and now I want to launch it into the nearest glacier (which is probably in my backyard at this point)

Maybe I'm just talking myself off the ledge here. Who knows?

Where's this team been?

One thing I found deeply moving about resistance in the Twin Cities was the universalism of loving your neighbor, the philosophy driving the opposition to the ICE/BP invasion. I couldn't help but notice the contrast with the blood and soil-ism of Miller and Vance. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

PREVIEW: It's the Blackhawks and the Wild up in St. Paul this evening.

Finished the fifth season of Game of Thrones this evening and might be too upset about it to go to sleep.

You know it's a life well lived that when a friend writes one of these about you, they find it easy for the words to just flow out. Goodbye, T.B. Diddler, it's been quite the ride. Free for everyone. sam-fels-but-whos-buying.ghost.io/one-last-by-...

Greg's just reporting here so it's not his fault but I see zero reason why Nick Lardis should be sent back to Rockford.

Canonically in the multiverse a bad timeline splits off when something that obviously was the proper thing to happen is wrongfully prevented from happening, so the only hope is to go back and do it right, oh, I see the Seahawks will be meeting the Patriots in the Super Bowl

Hot damn Wyatt Kaiser what a play

Already sick of the new Patriots. This sucks.

Friends don't let friends follow AltNPS

YES, THIS IS DOG FORT

Hell yeah Minnesota

RECAP: Oliver Moore's experiences on his 21st birthday were likely different than yours. All apologies to Billy Idol.

@allthreezones.bsky.social Have the Canes been feisty like this all season?

An extra two minutes for getting his ass kicked?

I'm enjoying the Nick Lardis experience this season.

Mikheyev trade value: soaring!
