One of my favorites, too. Watching it in IMAX last year when they re-released it was the best.

Her review: "That was some weird shit. I'm not leaving Earth. I'm gonna farm."

(She quite liked it. Freaked her out more than a few times, so she was fuly locked in. No small feat for a 13-year-old.)

About to watch Interstellar with my daughter for the first time and I'm unreasonably excited.

Blackhawks broadcaster Troy Murray leaves legacy of laughter, and an unfillable void Murray continued to call games throughout his debilitating cancer treatment until last season, when it all became too much.

Alex Vlasic on Troy Murray: "He was such a good guy to all the young guys in here. He made everyone feel welcome and meant so much to this organization, to the fans, so many generations that he impacted. Absolutely devastated to hear the news."

Spencer Knight will not make the trip to Dallas. Blashill hopes hell be ready for Monday's home game. Drew Commesso and Nick Lardis will join the team in Dallas.

Troy Murray has died. Just devastating. No one brightened up a day at the rink like Troy. I'll miss his stories, his mischievous smile, his throwing of popcorn at us whenever his booth was behind us in the press box. Truly one of the all-time good guys. Peace and love to his family.

Find you some neighbors who not only throw a poker night for your birthday, but make you a "cake" out of freshly sliced prosciutto.

Chicago Blackhawks 2026 trade deadline report card: Grading GM Kyle Davidson’s moves The Blackhawks traded Nick Foligno, Connor Murphy, Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach for Andrew Mangiapane and picks, plus another small deal.

The Blackhawks had a busy trade deadline. @ByScottPowers grades them out well:

NHL trade deadline winners and losers: Sabres rebuffed by Parayko, McDavid gets no help A sleepy NHL trade deadline says a lot about the state of the league in 2026. Here's who navigated the changing landscape best — and worst.

This deadline has been so boring that my watch thinks I've been sleeping for the last 90 minutes. Seriously.

Nick Foligno was signed to be a transitional captain between Jonathan Toews and (presumably) Connor Bedard. He was everything the Blackhawks wanted him to be and more. Now they're returning the favor by letting him chase his first Cup.

Blackhawks tired of selling at NHL trade deadline after losing 2 respected veterans "We want to become a team where we’re not losing anybody," Alex Vlasic said.

That's another grown-up with real-life experience out of the room. The Blackhawks' youngsters learned a lot from them while they were here, though:

Blackhawks trade captain Nick Foligno to Wild Foligno, 38, is in the final year of his contract with a $4.5 million cap hit.

Blackhawks trade captain Nick Foligno to Minnesota, where he'll chase his first Stanley Cup alongside his brother, Marcus.

NHL trade grades: Stanley and Schenn are not the answer to the Sabres missing out on Parayko This trade doesn’t make the Sabres better but kudos to Winnipeg for packaging both veteran defensemen to extract a higher price.

Jason Dickinson wasn't just a good penalty killer. He was a guy the young Blackhawks could go to for advice on contract talks, on home-buying, on managing money.

Evgeni Malkin should get suspended for that.

I've seen them in Chicago a few times, but not THAT long ago.

One of my favorite bands (Our Lady Peace) is playing at one of my favorite venues (The Vic) tonight. I will not be there. 😭

The Blackhawks are used to saying goodbye to good teammates and good friends this time of year.

They're also sick and tired of it.

Alex Vlasic gets his trade-deadline news from Instagram, so he said he's just been constantly refreshing.

"It’s kind of scary. You don’t want to lose any of your good buddies, you don’t want to get traded yourself."

Jeff Blashill expects Wyatt Kaiser to play tomorrow.

Nick Foligno had no new updates on his situation at the trade deadline. Said he's had talks with Kyle Davidson but that he's committed to the Blackhawks for as long as he's here.

Oliver Moore is at 3C with Jason Dickinson gone. Nick Foligno is centering the fourth line.

It's been so long since I've been to a Blackhawks practice, this place has doubled in size and changed names.
