Sounds like Bombito will be out for 4 to 5 months.

That timeline could get Bombito back into Canada camp for March international window and not put his World Cup in jeopardy. #CANMNT

Kamal Miller has been called up into Canada's men's national team after Moise Bombito's injury yesterday. #CANMNT

Go Cubs Go: two Chicago cracker-thin tavern style wheels tonight.

Pep (straight from Hamtown hey) with Anaheim and jalapeño peppers (straight from the garden hey), then sausage, onion and mushroom all ripped off in red wine and bacon fat.

Simon Benoit back in a regular sweater today at Maple Leafs practice, suggesting he’s all good after an upper body injury.

This was awesome. Well done

Calle Järnkrok has a new lease on his NHL career. Can it help him crack the Leafs?

“I’m not getting any younger.”

After living in pain for nearly a year, Calle Järnkrok has a new lease on his NHL career.

Can it help him crack the Maple Leafs opening night lineup?

Friday night New York style: Three-day dough, sauce from those San Marzanos in the back, pep, backyard Anaheims, jalapeños and basil with a hot honey driz.

This ruled, so hard.

This Maple Leafs prospect may be the dark horse of camp. Does he have an NHL future?

Luke Haymes gets his first Maple Leafs preseason game today.

Why the former touted NCAA prospect could be the dark (dark) horse in training camp:

#CanMNT committed to friendly v. Venezuela, but to consider:
- Not a geopolitical issue. Venezuela in US v. Nigeria days earlier
- Don't think Canada Soccer considering different Nov. opponent
-Wonder if there's Venezuela resistance to be in front of fans after missing WC26

On Canada’s men’s national team’s November friendly vs. Venezuela cancelled on Ticketmaster:

Sounds like Canada Soccer are in discussions with event promoter. Resolution possibly coming soon.

#CANMNT were considering Paraguay that window. They have two friendlies in US in Nov.
