Primarily post about hockey. Ardent Habs fan. Dismayed about the state of democracy. Looking forward to a victory for Ukraine over Russia.

Sat on the plane next to a woman who thought Danielle Smith was the best premier Alberta has had and who also thought Donald Trump made all his money operating casinos in Vegas and Florida. She was also a nurse who was an anti-vaxxer. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

As Canadians we should support the good people in #Alberta who want the province to remain a part of our great country. It is inaccurate and unfair to paint them all with the same brush. They are in a fight for their citizenship... don't push them away. Find a way to hrlp them. #Canada

PCโ€™s kept PP cause they have no leadership to replace him. They canโ€™t show weakness, but his polling as leader to Carney is so bad and it will continue to go south.

PP said he will run in Ottawa again, heโ€™ll fail another time.

PC leaders provincially like Carney, they donโ€™t back PP. Only Smith.

I was listening to a show the other day where they said that nobody in the Conservative party really wants to run right now because thereโ€™s no point going against Carney lol.

Gallagher has a 'get out of jail' card for the #Habs '25-26 season, as long as he remains contributing as a 4th line player, with 'compete' and tough checking.

BUT - With Newhook & Laine (or other?) lurking, Gally must come off of PP2, where he shows very limited offensive creativity.

He can play center and kill penalties; Blais does neither. I think that versatility is the main factor influencing the decision.

Adam Engstrรถmโ€™s 0.84 points-per-game pace makes him one of the most efficient U22 scoring threats among defencemen in the AHL this season. He is also a +11, has good size and is an excellent skater. Don't be anxious to give him away. #Habs

To me, Brendan Gallagher is the hardest decision facing Hughes at the moment. What do you do with an aging, loyal soldier who still competes harder than most on the team but no longer provides on ice results. Leadership is important; production is, too. #Habs

I prefer that Engstrom be given a chance but I am not opposed to moving him... in the right deal. For reference, take a look at Toronto's disastrous move of trading young prospect Fraser Minten and other assets to acquire Brandon Carlo. The #Habs absolutely have to avoid this kind of move.

Iโ€™m an atheist but will make an exception. The agents who did this will burn in hell, along with Jonathon Ross for murdering Renee Good and the mystery agents who murdered Alex Pretti. Burn baby burn.

Canadian journalists applauding Pierre for his speech at the convention and notice that he is smiling more.

Ya fucking think..... the dweeb just secured another 10 years of free housing and a massive paycheck for telling stupid people how broken Canada is...

Another strong game for Laval by Engstrom last night. He's certainly not pouting about going back to the AHL. #Habs

Great article, Brian. I've been waiting for your take since the game ended.

Since Elon Musk is now definitely in the Epstein Files, he needs all of the good PR that he can get.
So he's cooperating with Ukraine to stop Russia from using Starlink on their strike drones.

I thought so, too. Made better puck decisions than his previous game.

I thought Dach looked comfortable and defensively responsible on the first line. I would be tempted to try Texier with Anderson and Danault upon his return... but Gallagher put in the required work last night as well. Veleno the odd man out? #Habs
