Part of me would love to see it because it would be indicative of a huge landslide victory, but five minutes anywhere in Vancouver Kingsway would tell you this is pure fantasy.

That whole entrance was weird AF.

Ovechkin blowing kisses to Kash Patel after tying Gretzky's record was kind of weird. 🤪

David Papineau @misterpaps.bsky.social · Apr 5

Had to stop and rewind that part to confirm he was sitting with Patel. We used to revere the man, but Gretzky's doing a terrible job of proving to Canadians that he's not who we think he is. 🙄
