Pucked in the Head

Hockey, science, Star Trek, books, 🇨🇦. I’m an 8-track of hilarity.

Sprayed page edges are lovely, and special editions slap so hard. What are your favourites?
Mine right now is The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, sprayed deep green with seven golden wedding bands. (Image stolen from the evil A empire because my I lent my copy out.)

Welp, other #Canucks fans have started calling ME names and cursing ME out over the Quinn Hughes trade—like I’m somehow involved in making that decision—so I think I’ll go watch Wake Up Dead Man.
Good night, my friends.

Aquilini has been a meddling influence since he took over the #Canucks in 2004.
Linden wanted to rebuild the team in 2014, but Benning (on Aquilini's orders) said no.
The post-Sedin era has been a miasma of atrocious hockey, an *occasional* glimmer of hope, and cash grabs that fleece the fans.

What kind of puppy dog eyes do you think Brock Boeser has right now?
Buddy chose to sign with the #Canucks instead of going to Minnesota as a free agent, in part so he could keep playing with a guy like Quinn Hughes.

Like a lot of folks, I've been calling for a rebuild for quite a few seasons now. The #Canucks have FINALLY gone team tank.
Now watch Pettersson wake up and put the team on his back, just enough to fuck up Vancouver's draft pick.

What do the #Canucks get?
C Rossi, decent 2C. Upside: little less than a point a game.
D Buium, rookie, also American, big but not a great skater.
LW Ohgren, don't know much about him. 7 points in 46 career NHL games.
2026 1st round pick: Minnesota would pick 25th now, lower with Hughes for 40 GP.

There have been MANY nights in the past three seasons when Quinn Hughes was literally the only thing worth watching for #Canucks fans.
Fumbling an elite talent like Quinn Hughes SUUUUUCKS.
As a lifelong Canucks fan, I honestly don't know how long it'll be before I come back to the team after this.

It's days like this* I wonder if being a #Canucks fan is worth all the money, time, energy, and emotion.
*That is, those with names that end with 'day'.

Rossi's a helluva decent roster add, but in Quinn Hughes we lose the most dynamic player Vancouver has had since Pavel Bure.
Today is a sad day in a long, long list of sad days to be a #Canucks fan.

Was busy last night, so I've just watched the #Canucks #RedWings game this afternoon. Jeez Vancouver just can't catch a break.
They need to go full Sabre: raze that organization to the ground, burn out the rot. New owner, practice facility, 10 years of suckage, multiple #1/#2 draft picks...

Hockey games do not need a DJ blasting us into atoms every puck stoppage, or bland ‘personalities’ screaming pleas for us to make some noise.
Let us watch the game. Let us talk to our friends. Let us go through one fucking event without having to listen to your shitty synth bass and drums.

Queer romance, fine. But is the hockey in the show any good?

Paul Bissonnette trying to deliver a legit take during the 2nd intermission of the #Canucks-#MNWild game, and Bieksa leads the rest of the panel in the kind of verbal hazing Biznasty hasn't undergone since junior.

Maschmeyer was outstanding—made a handful of ten-bell saves in this one. Utterly deserving of 1st Star status.

My favourite parts of the @pwhlgoldeneyes.bsky.social 4-0 win over the dirtyrottenstinkin' @pwhlsirens.bsky.social:
1. A stunning Maschmeyer stick save in the 1st period.
2. Seeing the @thepwhl.com shorty-negates-the-PP rule IRL.
3. The Coliseum enacting changes for fan experience after game 1.

Is there anything more Vancouver than watching your sports team lose in a championship game?
A helluva season for the @vwfc-pr.bsky.social. A double-post shot away from a Cup.
(Related: what I wouldn’t give to see the @nhlcanucks.bsky.social back in Cup contention.)

The @pwhlsirens.bsky.social jerseys are even more underwhelming in person as in photos. Ugly logo, bad colours, the whole schmear.
@pwhlgoldeneyes.bsky.social lead 3-0 on both the scoreboard and in the look book.
