They quoted someone with over 20k followers and 5M likes on TikTok, those are some serious bona fides.

What the hell could be so bad that even the Blackhawks think it’s unacceptable?
This guy ducks
Thanks for the F shack.
Serves Ottawa right for not being a large market O6 team.
I don’t know which makes me lose more respect for the NHL: the fact that they made this policy in the first place or that they spinelessly rolled it back as soon as someone defied it.
And the type of deep analysis a knowledgeable fan might want is actually really hard to not only come up with live, but while watching something live without the benefit of watching a replay or a better camera angle.
At best, this kind of analysis is given a few minutes in between periods/quarters/halves/innings between commercial breaks and any other stories the network wants to cover.
Even if the announcer gets a generous 25 minutes between when the play happened and when they get a 2 minute spot to talk about it, that’s a pretty tight deadline to get a video package together and come up with some talking points. There aren’t a lot of people who have both the knowledge of the sport and the skill to put it together in a way that everyone will understand.
As an aside, there’s an installation at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto that lets you try your hand at recapping a few games. It’s tough even with a script. The announcers are doing it live.
The valets for the restaurant next to me just use all the metered street parking in front of our building. Imagine paying someone $20 to put $5 into a parking meter 100 feet away.
As long as you befriend a homeless person beforehand, you’re covered.
It’ll vary depending on the city, but generally not. Finding something affordable near downtown Toronto or Vancouver will be next to impossible, while in smaller cities like Edmonton, Calgary, or Ottawa, it will just be really, really hard.
This was in the early summer, but I’m pretty sure it’s a year-round event.
One of the coolest things I saw in Osaka was a monthly flea market held on the grounds of Shitennoji Temple. It’s a pretty big temple so there were a lot of vendors. I spent the better part of the morning eating amazing food and browsing through old games and records, vintage clothes, and all sorts of other old stuff. I ended up getting some old woodworking tools, a couple of wooden serving platters, and a copy of Dragon Quest V.
Doesn’t it usually happen the other way around? First you get Taylor Hall, then you get the 1OA pick?
Yeah. I think Snoop is a great ambassador for the game and it would be great for the sport if the NHL decided to work with him more. Having him as a part of Sparks’ bid was never going to be enough to make them the right choice for the Sens though.
That seemed like a too many men on the ice penalty at the end there.
I’m a Sens fan so I’d like Brady to be the first Tkachuk to win the Cup and want to see Stone lift one. Go Knights.
I suppose, but the risk is low. Especially if your only other choice is to die in a minute without CPR.
