Thank you, Jordan Binnington. You deserve your 🌺🌹💐🌻🌷🌼🪻- and then some. We were very, very wrong. The nation apologizes and sends our gratitude. We hope to see you in Italy in a year's time.

My thanks to Gray Media for the invite to their incredible new WVUE FOX 8 New Orleans building, broadcaster of Pelicans games. We got the tour of the new facility, ate some great food, and I might have almost danced to the awesome band.

It was an honour to chat with Pels Executive VP David Griffin the other night in DC. We talked about his NBA Radio days, I let him know about Laval hosting Nets G League games, and I talked up the growth of #Montreal basketball, that his scouts have to pay more attention here.

It was such a pleasure to host the panel discussion of the NewAge Products. companywide Town Hall last week in Toronto. We fielded employee questions, tackled topics in the news and reflected on a great year.

Watching this will be the best thing you do all week. For anyone who is a fan of this legend, it'll fill your heart.

What in the Scheifele is going on? Over a point a game and leading the team with the most wins in the league. I don't get it. Wow.

Where #sportsbusiness meets art. The #Saints & #Pelicans holiday party was held at the New Orleans Museum of Art. Networking with team partners AND taking in the classics up close was a trip. Pollock. Warhol. Picasso. And many others. Just amazing.

Interesting new #fournationscup lineup for Team Canada by Craig Button and Mike Johnson of TSN. Both of them agree that #Habs captain Nick Suzuki doesn't make the team, something I was thinking would happen for a while now. I guess having this much forward talent bodes well for 🇨🇦.

I'm so glad they found a way to keep this dream team together beyond this NBA season. Why, you ask? Watch this. Pure gold.

Partnership | Shaquille O'Neal | Garage_01 This is "Partnership | Shaquille O'Neal | Garage_01" by NewAge Products Inc on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

After Shaq experienced NewAge Products garage cabinetry firsthand on a CBS show, his people approached the company to buy some.

I was able to have him agree to outfit his Georgia garage in exchange for content.

The result was a spectacular 40-foot garage wall setup.

Zibanejad. Trocheck. The #Habs have become the perennial opposing team to help struggling scorers get right. 🤦

They've become unwatchable.

There are some #Habs keeper players in the lineup, to be sure. But anyone who looks at this roster objectively HAS TO see the team's certain path to a top 8, if not top 5 pick next June. Fans should embrace it. They simply don't yet have enough elite pieces to be competitive.

I will now actively seek out Second Cup locations when I'm out and looking for a warm beverage. Thank you to their CEO Peter Mammas for taking a stand against overt hate and intimidation of any kind in #Montreal.

The inept, feckless leadership of city, province & country is scary. By not having ZERO tolerance, our "leaders" are telling those targeting, scapegoating or blaming Jews for issues elsewhere in the world, to keep going. #polmtl #montreal #polcan

Hahaha. This is so on brand for Joe.

The Cavaliers, the Celtics and the entire NBA universe knew an undefeated record wouldn't last forever.

On Tuesday, Boston reminded Cleveland of what it looks like when you flip a switch.

Can't wait for this showdown.

YouTube video by Are You Game? The Olympic Stadium continues to be a painful and embarrassing reminder to Montreal residents.

Just when I thought I was out. A text message tonight caused me to remind, vent, educate, explain & wonder about how #Montreal & the province of #Quebec is spending $870 million in such a spectacularly terrible & maddening way. How did we all let this happen?

New show #Landman on Paramount Plus is exactly as advertised. Another #TaylorSheridan winner. Gritty. Fast moving. Slick talking. Gut wrenching. Unexpectedly funny. A pissed off Billy Bob Thornton is the best kind of Billy Bob Thornton.

True. And season 3 has already been shot.

If Mike Tyson get knocked out tomorrow can we all agree to act like it didn’t happen?

A hack to counter the #TysonPaul #Netflix issues: start it from the beginning, fast forward to about a minute behind live, and watch from there. Viewing in real time will lag.

#NetflixFight

It's unfathomable to think that @netflix wasn't prepared for the bandwidth demand. Buffering issues? Really? You didn't see this coming?

#TysonvsPaul

Is it really true, that #MikeTyson will get paid more the later he fights tonight? If so, I wouldn't read into it. A first round knockout would still be worth millions to his brand, anyway.

#TysonPaul

In some of the #sports partnership discussions I've had recently with pro teams, it's surprising to see just how many jersey patch or other prime sponsorships are available with the various leagues. The open inventory would really surprise you.

#sportsbusiness

I'm happy for #Sabres fans tonight. A great comeback win. That Buffalo fan base deserves a hockey winner already. A nice win for #Montreal native Devon Levi, too.
