If you aren't rooting for Erling Braut Haaland and the Norwegian soccer team in the World Cup, you really should be. This dude is everything that is good. www.time.kommune.no/aktuelt/engl...

It is an easy question: The House that Heaven Built by the Japandroids. Easy to sing in any range, has a fucking magical nonverbal shouty hook

Now that the government’s persecution of trans people has gone beyond sports and medicine for teens, where are all the people who insisted they weren’t "anti-trans" but just had some “reasonable concerns"? www.readtpa.com/p/reasonable...

Canucks sign defenceman Luke Schenn to a one-year, $2.25M contract

Seems appropriate for a team that has spent their entire history watching others score.

Canucks have signed Paul Cotter (FWD) to a 1y/2.15m contract.

The Round of 16 is only reserved for true footballing nations like Canada and not mid-tier casual expanded-tournament merchants like Germany and the Netherlands

I've got a live blog going for day two of the NHL draft, which you would already know if you subscribed to PITB. So, subscribe! passittobulis.substack.com/p/canucks-at...

Cosentino and Bukala ragging on teens who don't wear suits and who wear backwards caps speaks volumes about what a never-ending disaster this sport's culture is.

So cool we had to throw to an AI gambling ad instead of seeing the Calgary Flames draft Jarome Iginla's kid.

I really like the Novotny pick at 24th overall. Everything about his game screams "long NHL career." passittobulis.substack.com/p/vancouver-...

Love this pick for Vancouver. Didn’t even think he’d be available in this range. Real hard skill forward with an absolute howitzer for a shot. I’m a little bearish on the offensive feel for the game and that places a cap on the upside but good bet to play, perhaps even be an impact middle-six winger

The San Jose Sharks are showing exactly why it's important to stock up on draft picks.

The San Jose Sharks are going to be a problem.

Cobey Smulders knows how to get to the point. Wastes no time selecting Caleb Malhotra. Get her in the #Canucks front office.

"...and after Laila Edwards announces San Jose's pick, she will, you guess it, interview Gavin McKenna."

Excited to see if the NHL can wrap up the first round of the draft before the second round starts tomorrow morning.

Auston Matthews: "I am being treated very well. I have ample food and water. I do not wish to be traded, I promise you. Here is today's newspaper."

What you don't know is that Justin Bieber was stalling for time while they frantically made up the McKenna Leafs jersey backstage.

Zellweger for Wahlberg? What is this, me losing an argument with the damn wife over what movie to watch tonight? Folks,

I wish this was my name instead

I hope Arvid Bäck gets drafted by New Jersey so we can have a custom version of their alternate "Jersey" jersey with "Bäck" on the back.

you know you might have a generational year on your hands when Koy Funk and Rockston Ror-Chow are honorable mentions

Should the #Canucks draft Caleb Malhotra?

Vancouver is ready. So are the geese. 🇨🇦 #FIFAWorldCup

Should the #Canucks draft Chase Reid?

I guess it *was* the Corsi Hockey League

lil jon at warped tour:

Getting their first point in the World Cup is something, but that was a winnable game. Not enough finish in the box.

Sublime turn and control by Larin. Wonderful goal. Now go get another one.

If they don't draft her I'm gonna make like Sultan Mehmet II and tear this place to the ground

The 18 best names available in the 2026 PWHL Draft

27 years ago, the #Canucks changed their fortunes by drafting a pair of twins. Will they do it again this year with the Ruck twins?

What a stupid way for that game to end.

Why Daniel Sedin scouting the World Championship could matter

Friedman: Canucks have interest in ex-Kraken assistant coach Jessica Campbell

Why Manny Malhotra is the right head coach for the rebuilding #Canucks.

*in my best Strong Bad impression* There are two of them. open.substack.com/pub/passitto...

How a kid from a Caribbean island without a hockey rink became a top #2026NHLDraft prospect. I spent the year tracing Jaxon Cover’s incredible true story for @TheAthletic.com. My feature, free to read 🎁 www.nytimes.com/athletic/698...

Firing Adam Foote was the only choice for Ryan Johnson and the #Canucks.

saw someone on HFboards saying the Sedins had "too much culture and community pride talk. that should be table stakes" & I don't think it is. Whatever promise that previous era had was directly ruptured because the organization was full of assholes & mercenaries with no connection to the community.

We all owe @harrisonmooney.bsky.social from @passittobulis.bsky.social an apology: He correctly predicted the Sedins as co-presidents (I believe he first said co-head coaches and co-GMs) on the April 2, 2018 episode of the Pass it to Bulis Podcast.

Of course, I’m the one fifth-place vote for Linus Karlsson for the Calder. Of course.

Me in the fall when it's time to rake
