John Shorthouse on the loss of John Garrett: “Next to my dad, he’s the most selfless person I’ve ever met.” Thanks to Shorty, Ed Willes and Stan Smyl for speaking with me about Cheech. theprovince.com/sports/hocke...

Here's my full story on the latest with @mls.bsky.social and @whitecapsfc.com www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/sports/major... #MLS #VWFC

I've heard back from @mls.bsky.social re: the @whitecapsfc.com situation. Going to share it in full, but it will take a few posts: "The Whitecaps’ ownership group has played a significant role in growing the game in Vancouver and across Canada. (continued ...) #MLS #VWFC

Caps up to 25 goals in 9 MLS games, which is 2.77 goals/game. Over their entire 2025-26 season, the Canucks managed just 2.63 goals per game

Many, many folks holding “Save the Caps” signs as both teams walk out into the field. Some even brought their own homemade signs. #vwfc #mls #savethecaps

“Save the Caps” signs have been placed on seats in about seven sections at B.C. Place ahead of tonight’s Whitecaps-Rapids game. #VWFC #MLS

The #NSL kicks off season two today with reigning champs Vancouver Rise hosting AFC Toronto. www.cbc.ca/sports/socce...

Speaking of milestones, the Northern Super League kicks off its second season tomorrow. I spoke with founder Diana Matheson and president Christina Litz about lessons learned from the inaugural campaign. www.timescolonist.com/national-spo... #NSL

One year ago today, we learned Vancouver would get the first PWHL expansion team. What a year it’s been. www.tsn.ca/pwhl/article... #PWHL

Anyway. The Goldeneyes won. And they have a very fun victory celebration. Please enjoy.

If you’re not watching the PWHL, I truly don’t know what you’re waiting for. Tonight’s Goldeneyes-Victoire game was bananas. #pwhl

Patrik Allvin is out after the Canucks finished the season 32nd in the NHL standings. Jim Rutherford, Vancouver’s president of hockey ops, is set to speak this afternoon. www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hocke... #canucks #nhl

Re-upping this story I wrote about Matt Savoie in January. For no particular reason. www.timescolonist.com/national-spo... #oilers #nhl

McDavid is on cheat mode again.

Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim announces a $400 million fund for upgrading five community centres if re-elected. Details are to come on which centres those would be. I’ve been told the Britannia Centre/Canucks practice facility negotiations are not part of it.

One of the true good guys in hockey Pleased to announce Kevin Lankinen is the Vancouver chapter of the PHWA’s nominee for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, which recognizes sportsmanship, perseverance and dedication to hockey theprovince.com/sports/hocke...

This game is bananas.

More on the new rule here: www.sportsnet.ca/canadian-pre...

It’s Trans Day of Visibility! Re-upping this story where Vancouver Rise star Quinn talks about what’s changed since they came out publicly more than five years ago.

A lot has changed since #CANWNT and @nsl.ca star Quinn publicly came out as nonbinary more than five years ago - for better and for worse. www.cbc.ca/sports/olymp...

This is an extraordinary labor win. This season, the WNBA *minimum* saalry will be higher than the former *maximum* salary. www.wsj.com/sports/baske...

Nils Hoglander knows he can be better. He just wants get a chance to show that. On a winger who chose his words carefully today: theprovince.com/sports/hocke...

Sounds like folks who show up at tonight’s #Canucks game with a paper bag for headwear will be escorted out and could be banned.

Demolition has begun for the rebuilding Vancouver Canucks. #Canucks #NHL www.timescolonist.com/national-spo...

A significant number of Vancouver Whitecaps players could be playing in the FIFA World Cup this summer. Some of them are trying not to think about it. #VWFC #MLS #FIFAWorldCup www.timescolonist.com/national-spo...

Tyler Myers will be missed in the Vancouver Canucks' locker room. "He's such a good leader, such a good human being," Brock Boeser said of the veteran defenceman. #Canucks #TexasHockey #NHL www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/sports/vanco...

The FIFA World Cup kicks off in 100 days! There’s still lots to be done in Vancouver and Toronto, two of the 16 cities hosting games during the tournament. www.cbc.ca/sports/socce...

The five @pwhlgoldeneyes.bsky.social Canadian Olympians are back and pushing for a playoff spot. #pwhl www.tsn.ca/pwhl/article...

This isn't just a standard 'winning team visits the WH in a planned visit' -- it's the state of the damn union, as the NHL resumes. The problem isn't that the president called the team (he should have!) it's that the gold-medal winning women's team was the punch line, instead of being celebrated.

Shiny new seats are in at B.C. Place ahead of the Whitecaps new season …. And some big tournament this summer. #vwfc #FIFAWorldCup

The Whitecaps have signed head coach Jesper Sorensen to a two-year contract extension. I talked to him about his first year in Vancouver and why he’s opting to stay. #vwfc #mls www.piquenewsmagazine.com/national-spo...

If you like this gold medal game and you have yet to check out a PWHL game, you should change that. #facts

Just terrified my toddler by screaming when Canada scored. This game is incredible.

Ghosts.

I would pay good money to hear what Cooper just said to his team there.

What a sport.

Celebrini is a national treasure.

Survived Day 1 of potty training a very strong willed toddler. Fairly certain this deserves a gold medal.

Celebrini is a national treasure.

Connor McDavid shines in big moments. Now the Edmonton Oilers captain is on the brink of one of his biggest moments yet — his first Olympics. www.thestar.com/sports/olymp... #Oilers #NHL #Olympics

Goosebumps watching the Canadians walk in for the opening ceremonies. The Olympics are so cool.

Eight teams of visually impaired curlers are in Edmonton this week, battling to be named Canada’s best. They tell me the tournament is about not just competition, but camaraderie, too. www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/visually-imp...

I’m in Edmonton covering the #Oilers for a couple of weeks. But I haven’t been posting on here much and I should! So here’s a thread of what I’ve been working on:

(I love rookie laps. Post them every time I see them.)

Rookie lap for #Oilers forward Josh Samanski. He’s set to play his first NHL game tonight against the Ducks.

We know Gary Bettman binged “Heated Rivalry,” but how do other folks in the hockey world feel about the steamy show? I talked to a few to find out. #HeatedRivalry #PWHL #NHL www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/sports/pwhle...

I think the Oilers fans might actually outnumber the Canucks fans here at Rogers Arena tonight.
