Carrying on, and whatnot.
Hey, here's a bunch of content - I've just got one favor.

If anyone’s interested in going to tomorrow’s Canes/Leafs game or Sunday’s Canes/Sharks game, let me know. I’ll let either pair go for $60, which is basically my cost. 314, 2nd row, no glass in front

Who you going feast mode with? 🦃

A reminder this Thanksgiving day for appropriate alcohol times

Beer: noon (football prep, too early fills you up too much for dinner)

Wine: 10am (earlier if you’re preparing food)

Liquor (shots): approx 1 hour before in-law/extended family interaction

Liquor (Baileys): whenever coffee is ready

The good news: the president has pardoned the turkey.

The bad news: two hours later the turkey was arrested for running a ponzi scheme and committing acts of gross sexual imposition.

The amount of times I’ve been in a mall and said to my wife “that kid is back on the ESCALATOR again” or said “a schooner *is* a sailboat stupidhead” or some variation of “breakfasts come and go but Hartford - the WHALE - they only beat Vancouver maybe one, twice in a lifetime”… man I’m annoying

Long Island folks! Someone please go get her and bring her home for Thanksgiving. You could be snarfing turkey with your new best friend 🍗🦃♥️
🥺 MELIA needed some quiet time from the noisy shelter. A volunteer took her to their car. Please adopt her. She needs a peaceful adult only home. No dogs. Cats are ok. 3.5 years old. Around 50 lbs. Where's her hero

Me watching Canes Nation go into complete meltdown despite having one of the best records in hockey because of who’s starting in goal or a healthy scratch, while also having a newsletter to put out on Tuesday

“He’s not a dirty player” - Dallas fans, literally 5 days ago

What the fuck does this guy have against Long Island?

*adds Calgary to the list*
Rantanen gets five and a game for boarding on Coronato. Honestly, feels like Coronato pulled up a bit here, but the result was awful, with Coronato bleeding heavily.

Went to the Fairgrounds today and got a PS3 and a Nintendo 64 so my day is going pretty good

this shirt idea came from the marketing department; not sure we’re a “merch” newsletter yet

If you are in the triangle or surrounding area, please consider sharing this to get more eyes on this pup...literally begging.
Sos: urgent plea!!! If you are someone you know has been considering adopting a dog and you have patience and love to give, please, please, please consider this sweet boy.

Before you sign off for the weekend, consider checking out the Workrate Hockey newsletter. Mikko Rantanen gets more enemies, the Canes dodge a bullet that drills the Rangers in the forehead, and a Song of the Day you probably haven’t thought of in 30 years. workrate-hockey.ghost.io/workrate-hoc...

This is awesome; watching Hyan in DPW I thought she deserved a bigger spotlight. I’m glad AEW is paying attention (and cheers to Nixon Newell and Miranda Alize for opening that door)
November 20, 2025 at 2:02 AM
I mean, of course. Player safety is an illusion.
No further discipline is expected to come Rantanen's way for boarding Romanov.

Wait, Scotland did it? And Kieran Tierney with the game winner no less? Hell yeah.

Wait Craig Gordon is still playing!?
