Great screen by Emily Clark on the first goal. Exactly what Ottawa needed more of.

One reason I’m glad not to be at the Ottawa Charge - Vancouver Goldeneyes game is because it would have meant booing too many “welcome back” videos.

Okay, Maritimers who have lost themselves in Upper Canada: Where can I find Ganong chocolates here? I don't see any Red Wrap/Delecto/Chicken Bones at Loblaws or Shoppers this year.

Only missed it by six wins.
The Jays are winning 100 games.

It’s hard to listen to a podcast when you know the host thinks you are a moron.

Question to you, the wise folks:

Can a non-Christmas/holiday song become a holiday song by virtue of its inclusion in a Christmas movie?

I’m thinking of “Put a Little Love In Your Heart” from Scrooged, or “Pennies From Heaven” from Elf.

What say you, sagacious friends?

Max Scherzer talking like he’s already signed on with the Jays for 2026. He didnt outright say it but he’s talking about We and Us and winning next year www.reddit.com/r/Torontoblu...
From the Torontobluejays community on Reddit: Max Scherzer is asked if there’s unfinished business in Toronto. He sure said WE and OUR a lot.

I picked up the new version of EA Sports NHL video game on sale. I’m absolutely delighted to report that my all-time favourite stupid bug remains in the game.

In certain game modes, if you are using a team with Wayne Gretzky, it changes his number to 97. Because number 99 is retired.

Does anyone understand what the Cards are doing at this point?
The first of presumably several trades for the #STLCards this offseason:

You'll never guess who has the absolute shittiest take about Penny Oleksiak.

Ronja was so good in the season opener. She’s a star.
KEEPING OUR CORE TOGETHER 🔥

We're excited to announce contract extensions for forward Gabbie Hughes and defender Ronja Savolainen!

The Sens and Kings are like me in my 20’s: No goals.

He honestly believes that it is the vulgarity that makes a “roast” most effective.
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

One other thing about my Ottawa Charge experience last night.

I drove to TD Place knowing that the parking on site was sold out. Figured I would take a shot at street parking within walking distance.

It took me 45 minutes to find a spot 2 KM away from the rink. Got there just as the puck dropped.

Ready for some Uncle Tao Ottawa Charge posts? There are three of you who tolerate these and four of you who wish I’d buzz off. Anyways…this is for the three of you.

-That game coulda been 8-0 if it wasn’t for Gwyneth Philips. She was outstanding, and let down by her defence in the 3rd.

Welp. The arse is out of ‘er now for the ladies of the Ottawa Charge.
