Didn't mind the Habs finally getting some help from the zebras for a change last night.

F.Xhekaj playing like he wants to stay in the NHL, and I think we'll see all of Struble/A.Xhekaj/Engström in this next stretch of games.

Thank heavens the Habs play tonight. Am fighting every urge to engage in a different discourse today.

Thanks for this, we need more awareness of the Manitoba NDP’s hideous commitment to carcerality
As a hip hop artist and journalist, Wab Kinew documented the harms of policing on young people

As Manitoba premier, Kinew is calling for more police in his province's schools

We dove into his record on policing and youth for @breachmedia.ca

RSS rules. RSS never became less relevant. RSS is a way to claw your agency back from silicon valley algorithmic timelines. That said if you use it you really are a sicko

That the biggest challenge is goaltending is heartening.

It's the hardest problem (where do you find a solution??) but the easiest fix (you only need one player to solve this).

I said a ways back that I'd take it easy on the goalies, and I think it's best to continue that way.

Adam Engström & Vinzenz Rohrer were both 3rd rounders in a wild 2022 draft. I'm excited that Engström is this close.

I can't socialize with anyone who dislikes Miller's Crossing. Handily their best film, by a great distance.

Nothing more foolish than a man chasing after his hat!
I think the weirdest part of spending so much time with the Coens this year was learning how many of our listeners think Miller's Crossing—the Coens' greatest film, and probably the best screenplay of the 1990s—is one of their worst movies lol.

On May 11, 1950, while working on the Rawlins National Bank in Wyoming, a construction crew unearthed a whiskey barrel that contained a human skeleton with its skull cap sawed off & an odd pair of shoes. Dr. Lillian Heath, now in her 80s, was asked if she knew anything about it...🧵

"X Gon' Give It To Ya" plays at the Bell Centre for Florian Xhekaj's 1st #NHL fight as he bloodied #LeafsForever Mermis! Florian received props from his team-mates while sitting in the penalty box during the TV timeout.

This will be a very fun show for @linecomposition.bsky.social and probably less so for @zachpayne41.bsky.social. Tune in for your postgame Habs/Leafs hang!
Tonight I'll be on with @zachpayne41.bsky.social for a crossover show post-game to talk about this game and whatever awful thing the Habs are about to do to my will to live (Yes, they're up 2-0 but I don't trust them)

This is the saddest, scariest thing. An ancient heartbeat of civilization is facing its final ruin as an ecological disaster.

I fear for all those people and I hope they find strength. The end has come for us all.

LOUDER NOW
If the Montreal Canadiens recall Adam Engström soon, I would not be surprised. Outright dominating the AHL right now....

The Ukraine peace deal brokered by the U.S. should simply state:
Russia will leave ALL of Ukraine by next Thursday or the full power of the U.S. and NATO will be brought to bear on the aggressor country.

While I'm on the subject of fixes, moving Slaf to the 2nd line did not fix anything.

Re-unite line 1, put Bolduc with Kap & Demidov, and Gallagher with Veleno & Anderson on line 3. Call up a C & run an AHL line 4 with Roy & Davidson.

That's where we are if Evans is out.

It was an absolute embarrassment in the D-zone.

Yes the goalies also crapped the bed, yes the coach was yet again out-foxed ***at home*** and yes the team is afraid of big bad Tom Wilson.

HuGo, you're up. On dort au gaz icitte là!!!!
To be fair to the Canadiens' greater emphasis on how poorly they played in front of their goalies last night, the Capitals generated 13 high-danger scoring chances at 5v5 per @naturalstattrick.com. That was the Canadiens' third-highest total of the season.
