I can speak to this a bit:
USA hockey started what we call the ADM about 15 years ago. Cross ice hockey, small area games, huge focus on skill development over systems stuff. NTDP gets the best kids together early with the right resources.

I’m not arguing, I’m just wondering what other countries are doing for development? I have no idea what hockey Canada does. Like development camps for the kids/teens? Or more skill coaching on the teams?

I'm not surprised by the US-Canada game, just disappointed.
I think it's one of the best examples of how much better USA Hockey is from a developmental standpoint, and it might be awhile before Canada can catch up again.

Jim Robson did what he loved, was revered by a province, was the nicest man you can imagine, and two weeks ago, just after turning 91, was out smiling and watching his favourite hockey team.
May we all be so kind, lucky and blessed.

This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

The government is giving a loan to a Crown corporation that should just be a public service that we pay for because it provides an essential task that Canadians depend on.
We don’t provide loans to the health care system or schools; we just pay for them.

Apparently when this also doesn’t get a fine or suspension after the Rust 3 gamer on Boeser
The Bruins ended up shorthanded for this. This hit was only called a minor.
At what point is there enough burden of proof to show the Panthers have had games and officiating rigged in their favour?

Charlie McAvoy has left the game following this hit from Sandis Vilmanis. Vilmanis received a two-minute illegal check to the head penalty.

If (and a big if) the reports (which seem to be from credible sources) about the McKenna incident are true, then I don’t think teams are going to be scared about drafting him.

Anyway, it’s incredible that the 2024-2025 Vancouver Canucks were so toxic that it was apparently contagious, in that the people who left the org at that time are turning multiple other franchises into clown shows.

I remember when the Canucks made the Kane trade how many “hockey people” said to wait before judging that move to everyone who was outraged over it.
They should never be able to talk about hockey again.
