Not hockey but important and deeply personal. My wife’s blog about our (adopted) daughter meeting her birth mom. I wasn’t there but my heart was in my throat as I read this. All families experience unique wins and losses. This is a victory.
I just saw that there is a fan based unofficial push to have fans attending the
@NHLJets
game tonight wear green in support of Humboldt.

GM Chuck Fletcher on pursuing Matthew Tkachuk:
“Everyone would love to have a guy like that on their team. The truth is, pulling off that type of trade would require a lot of hard work and I just bought a new jetski. I like the team we’ve built here.”

tie the west final at 2-2. I lived the start of the season with zero fans and I can’t properly connect having a full house in the same year
Re Tom Wilson hit that drew a match penalty. It’s the pre-season, it’s the last pre-season game, you just won the cup, you are on the team, this game means nothing to your future, you still went ahead and made a bad, dirty hit. I’d go 10.
Great news from the latest update by Saskatchewan Health Authority. 6 patients from the
@HumboldtBroncos
accident remain in hospital in Saskatoon but as of now, none are listed in critical condition. Broncos tribute concert goes Friday In Saskatoon.
@countrythunder
I think we have to add
@NYIslanders
to the list of surprising starts. Already with 2 shutouts and have gone six str8 without giving up more than three. Barry Trotz says they have work to do but 8-4-1 for a team that lost it's franchise player is worthy of a WOW.
Appropriately two goalies stole the show tonight

Coach of Year thought. At the start of the season did you believe
@TBLightning
was 20 plus pts above the entire league? I didn’t. Jon Cooper’s team has surpassed expectations and is challenging historic
@nhl
greatness. He should be the Jack Adams winner.
Last thought is of Toronto victims and first responders. So many images of F.R. working on those struck by the van. Heroes....and to the officer who faced down the alleged driver, these words cannot do you justice “poised, brave, capable, gutsy, leader, calm” I don’t know how.

@nhl
low with 2 fights, just lost 6-0 and didn't take a penalty. Fans are very unhappy with this style. I think someone just lost their job for not wanting to be rough and tumble.

From Saskatchewan Health Authority relating to the patients from the
@HumboldtBroncos
bus accident. “As of 10:30 a.m. today, 5 individuals remain in hospital in Saskatoon; currently, none are listed in critical condition.” This means one player has been released. Great news.
Let me get this straight, it's mid-January and

I preface this saying I am not the biggest of Guy Boucher coaching fans. I cannot believe

fired him now. It serves zero purpose. Crawford was associate coach so already had influence which totally mitigates this different msg thing. Timing makes no sense, then again..

I am happy to see this. It will not be easy or at times fun but I truly believe that it’s the correct course of action. Play. Heal. Hockey. Community Pride.

, happy new year!! Looking forward to the continuation of The Millard’s great adventure. People make the difference and we are surrounded by the best. 👌
Impressive comments from
@RobinLehner
about diagnosis, rehabilitation, and staying healthy in order to succeed. Listen to to this.. It doesn't matter which side of the diagnosis you are on, patient or supporter..
“I’ve had bad days this season, but I know how to handle it now. For people out there who don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel, you have to get the right help. That’s what’s good about this. It shows it can be done with the right help and the right people.”

Opinions on the match fiasco aside

presentation wonderfully. I love her even more than if she wins 5 more slams. It’s ok to be pissed off, but when the game ends we should all handle it like Serena.

There is no better feeling than being a dad. Out with the girls at public skating and having so much fun watching their smiles as they make strides.

I watched from afar when, in the wake of a tragedy, a bond was formed with a new
@nhl
team. On the anniversary of October 1st, 2017, I was privileged to witness this relationship. Survivors, first responders and others impacted attended a closed practice before meeting the team.
Hi tweeps. How are you doing.? 5th week. Dog days of this. Stay committed to social distancing. We are all antsy. Let’s help each other the next couple of weeks. !!!
I am perplexed. How can

On the final Sunday of April, I hope you are safe, healthy and holding up both mentally and physically during this time. Things are starting to turn, but please be patient. Normal cannot happen overnight. Miss all of you.
Under the assumption the

returns without in arena spectators, are goals, penalties, last minute of play, etc announced during games? Yup, that's where I am today..
First impressions

tv produc has more of a game feel than I expected The audio mix for the first exhibition game What do you think? is really good . I like a couple of the new camera angles. What do you think tweeps ?
Working on a couple of things. One has nothing to do with my traditional field of broadcasting. Waiting and preparing for the next opportunity to present itself. On-air or not I promise that you will hear my voice in a little bit... (insert dramatic music)
