The evidence is there and the narrative is pretty clear! When was a kid playing street hockey with the crew we payed for the MF Stanley Cup cause that’s what my NHL team was trying to win. The ultimate prize! I’d say most Americans going up playing hockey are likely in the same boat. The number of E ...

Just 100 days left! 8-) Sweden might still make it. We play a qualifier against Ukraine on March 26 and the winner of that game will face the winner of the Poland vs Albania matchup on the 31st to compete for a slot in Group F with the Netherlands, Japan and Tunisia. We've played like crap recently ...

Not a boo from Russia or China. Well, actually: The Russian Foreign Ministry, ..., sharply condemned the joint US-Israeli military operation in Iran, calling it "a pre-planned and unprovoked act of armed aggression against a sovereign and independent UN member state in violation of fundamental ...

Good for BC for adopting permanent daylight time and drop the ridiculous time change twice a year. Danielle Smith is also looking into it for Alberta. Hopefully we adopt permanent daylight time here as well. Brilliant! The EU was supposed to get rid of it in 2021, but then the Pandemic happened ...

I see what you are cooking there 5th and we will likely end up disagreeing on this (as well). ...but... ...so are rape, murder (it's just a shot away), human sacrifice, child slavery et cetera et cetera. It would be traumatic for a child to see the things you listed, but not so for drag. It is ...

Anyone surprised that the US and Isnotreal just started WWIII? No, not really, and I’m afraid it’s our fault. :( In the 2019/20 season, Björklöven won the Swedish second tier league and was about to get promoted to the SHL. The hockey gods than unleashed a global pandemic, resulting in the Swedish H ...

A Finnish cover of Thunderstruck:

Still. Even if the results didn’t go as I would have wished, I’m overjoyed to have been able to watch best on best Olympic hockey for the first time in eight years. There’s nothing quite like it! 12 years. Right, I was thinking none the past two Olympics, but yeah - that makes it twelve. Even worse! ...

Losing 2-1 to the USA in overtime? I feel your pain.

And 3 vs 3 is stupid.

Curling is actually quite popular around here. It likely the most talked about Olympic sport. Usually something like, "I don't know why, but I'm REALLY enjoying watching Curling ". Curling is a great TV sport! I really enjoy watching it. With the view from above you see exactly how the stones are ...

Still an outrage that an elimination game between Finland and Canada can be refereed by two Canadians. Especially when the game is decided by the calls they make. Not saying they made the wrong calls. I can’t think of any other sport where that would be acceptable. You should never be able to q ...

Mikko Rantanen!

Pretty exciting hockey tonight though. Three of the quarterfinals went to overtime.
