I've been so disillusioned with the Sens and the NHL that this was the first game I watched from start to finish all season. And I was firmly reminded that my life choices for the entire season prior were correct.

Slamming fist on the sign

NHL reffing, especially in the playoffs, has dramatically decreased my enjoyment of the game over the years. Embarrassing top to bottom

chargggggeeeee

Again, if you have a Substack, the best time to switch away was months ago -- but today's the second best time.

Hughes had so many incredible chances this game, it's only right that she finally buries one!

Holy shit that Mrazova goal was absolutely nutty

There's no way to lie by telling the truth. If you wouldn't give a player a penalty for going up to a ref and saying "that guy fouled me", then you shouldn't give them a penalty for saying it in any other way.

Diving/embellishment (in the event that the player is doing it to draw attention to a foul being committed against them) is the stupidest penalty in any sport and is basically rooted in the toxic masculine ideal that 'complaining about cheating is worse than actual cheating'

When the Sens win

Meanwhile my other favorite sports team making the right headlines 🫡

Imagine watching a second-rate league like the NHL while the Charge game is on. Couldn't be me 😏

Woz woz wozzzzzzz (In case it isn't already clear, Woz is to the Charge what Nick Paul was for me with the Sens, albeit Woz is def more important to the Charge than Nick Paul was to the Sens)

Tying goal off a Woz pass interception, I know that's right

Sarah Wozniewicz is becoming a certified stick lift forechecking legend

well who could've seen this coming

Wozniewicz quickly becoming an absolute OT queen 👸

Holy moly the mic'd up crowd in this Charge - Sirens game is both annoying AND depressing 😬 Also, Charge ruleeeeeeee

@ianmendes.bsky.social i know you're not involved in hockey ops, but please pass on the message this james reimer thing is greatly disappointing and makes all of the orgs efforts to be more inclusive seem like window dressing (Prove us wrong)

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

That Czech team fucking ruled

The mayor of New York City is doing more than the senate and house minority leaders

Seriously wild how much better the Charge have been after the way they started the season

Charge are winning the cup

This product should be removed from the market by regulators immediately.

NBA folks -- a personal URL and site hosting fee is worth it. You will make more money. I was able to cover my first Finals in 15 years off the difference, driving to all seven games.

Absolutely insane goal by Brooke Hobson, holyyyy

give them all gigantic raises

Dooood, how the hell are we halfway through the first period of the Charge game and they STILL haven't fixed the audio echo on the youtube feed???

Please let this be the last year you use Spotify. On top of everything else, they're running ads for ICE.

NEW EPISODE! Are the Ottawa Senators making lineup decisions based on our podcast? Are we Canada's Team? And most importantly, why is this popular hockey romance series so mean to Ottawa? zencastr.com/z/8mCglGnT

How was that not boarding? Do I simply not know what boarding is??

The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.

Got a Youtube channel? Here's how to opt out of Youtube's latest AI nonsense

Crossed paths with Pavel Buchnevich this morning. I said nothing because he seemed wary of me. Realized later that I was wearing a Sens hoodie and he probably assumed that I knew puck and I'd recognize him and try to chat. Wish I'd asserted dominance and said 'good luck this year' and kept walking.

Reviews are in, Steve is cooking.

nba players are by rule permitted to pick up their dribble and even run down the court while carrying the ball if they loudly sing a song in lieu of dribbling. that no one ever does speaks to how self-conscious even the most well-known and confident among us can be

Once again for the chorus: There are no good Barstool people If you’re an employee or someone that calls them good friends or mentors, you’re co-signed onto this shit

"To understand who is in control, observe who you are not allowed to criticize." -Voltaire

I occasionally think about the fact that even if the league agreed to award the Stanley Cup to a new team every year, it would still potentially take THIRTY-TWO years for your team to win it. And that would be under a 'fair' distribution. So yeah, it's not surprising some teams have never won it

Took me a bit to process how big a deal this report actually is--its thus far the only review to look at the entire body of currently available research. It took two years to conduct, stands at 1,000 pages, and completely contradicts the Cass Review and the common arguments for bans on this care.

biblically accurate exeggcute

Thomas Chabot on his first playoff experience. “It was fucking unbelievable.” Later calling the Senators fans the best fanbase in the league.
