Elastica's s/t album is better than anything Wire did, Outdoor Miner excepted.

One of the dumbest hockey barns I've ever visited. Also, the quietest.

He and Gallivan pretty much soundtracked my childhood in smalltown SK. So much grace, and what vocabulary!

There was probably a lot of fighting in the war room over what to name it.

It's healing to read editorials like yours, Bruce Arthur's, Dave Bidini's.

Did you know about the MLK "measure of a man" quote tattooed on Matthew's chest? As they're saying online, he had the answer to the test on his body, and he still screwed it up. Leafs have to to something about this.

Damien Cox: Auston Matthews made his choice, seemingly putting the party and the president ahead of the playoffs It was always going to be a balancing act being the captain of the U.S. Olympic team and the Maple Leafs, and Matthews fell off the wire, Damien Cox writes.

The Toronto Star came through. They tore Auston Matthews to shreds.

Sirenia is like Kamelot, hugely underrated in North America, but their live shows are revelations.

Auston and Brady have some 'splainin to do to media and fans when they get back to Canada.

Honestly, there's no better time to trade those guys.

The US men's team celebrating with Johnny Gaudreau's kids on the ice (genuinely heartwarming even for a Canadian) and then celebrating with the pedo enabler at the FBI, is the cognitive dissonance at the heart of it all. Laughing at the Orange Pedo for his joke about the women's team is added bonus.

Patiently waiting for the hockey "insiders" to talk about this hateful behavior their podcasts. Looking hard at you, too, Jocks & Jills.
