“While the Soviet runner was second, the American was next to last.” |
/1 Shameful. Further to this from @juliaioffe, I have several friends in Russia who advised me in recent days that they are cutting off communication with the outside world, deleting encrypted communication apps like Signal, Telegram and WhatsApp out of fear of reprisals. https://t.co/cEmKQMVi9v For followers outside C... |

@GlobeBobRyan Yes the Ukrainian people have been incredibly strong, but they are under extraordinary strain. This from a friend in Kyiv this morning. https://t.co/gISI3Kqvgy Chills. Hi-Q! Happy to say that our TSN Hockey crews are back on-site for all of our US-based games. https://t.co/nlKtlWEeFD They lost me a while... |
We are quite rightly talking about the heroism of the Ukrainian people, but this is taking an awful toll. https://t.co/qE1B0L8sg7 Amazingly well written and researched by @ruthbenghiat Started reading this book a couple of weeks ago. Good timing. https://t.co/rGSljzeJl6 Expecting an announcement from the @iihfhockey s... |
“It is almost Monday, Kyiv is free, we are free,” he said. Some federations are calling for a ban on teams from Belarus as well. The 2023 World Junior Championship is scheduled to be played in Novosibirsk and Omsk in December/January. There is also a possibility that the Men’s World Championship, scheduled for St. Pete... |
-immediate removal of Russian teams from all @IIHFHockey events for the rest of 2022, including the World Championship and the World Junior Championships scheduled for August and December. |
-moving the 2023 WJC out of Russia The Telegram app is a very powerful tool, and it’s not only Ukrainians who are using it to communicate. Every Russian I know uses it (or Signal). A lot of information gets into Russia and gets circulated this way. The Russian owner of Chelsea of the EPL. Strong words from Dominik Ha... |
/5 Going back to Alberta could happen, Edmonton and Red Deer hosted 2020 in a bubble, and had the 2021 event cancelled mid-tournament, but is it too much to ask them to do it twice in 5 months? /4 The World Junior tournament is trickier, finding a host city/cities with this little notice could be difficult. Alberta w... |
My Twitter minders advise me that they have shut down comments on the original Tweet based on some offensive messages that were posted in the replies (those replies are now hidden). Some Breaking Ottawa news: I went to the Rideau Centre Mall to grab lunch, we were just told to leave immediately, heavily armed Ottawa Po... |
The question marks: experience (he’s never coached in North America), age (he’s almost 60) and language (his English isn’t great). What’s interesting is that last fall, the Finns were very optimistic going into an Olympic Men’s hockey tournament that would have featured NHL players. |
They liked their chances with a lineup led by the likes of Barkov, Aho, Rantanen, Laine, Heiskanen and Husso/Saros. Updated: |
Finland’s recent results in @IIHFHockey Men’s tournaments: |
2014: WJC 🥇 WC 🥈Olympic 🥉 |
2015: U18 🥈 |
2016: U18 🥇WJC 🥇 WC 🥈 |
2017: U18 🥈 |
2018: U18 🥇 |
2019: WJC 🥇 WC 🥇 |
2021: WJC 🥉 WC 🥈 |
2022: Olympic 🥇 Ville Pokka’s lack of scoring in a game didn’t stop @rayferrarotsn from silently mimicking an accordion player every time I called his name in an attempt to crack me up on the air. |
His childishness knows no bounds. Pokka! Pokka! Pokka! |
(@rayferrarotsn dared me to say that if he scored in a game we did, but it never happened.) https://t.co/Gjivm493Nl Chad Ruhwedel broke into the NHL with Buffalo as an undrafted free agent in 2012/13. This latest extension with Pittsburgh is his 7th NHL contract, none of them longer than two years, none for more than ... |
No big deal, you say? He’s made nearly $6 million in salary so far. Dean Morton, who is retiring as an NHL referee at the end of this season, was drafted by Detroit and played one game for the Red Wings in 1989/90. Perhaps because he scored a goal in his only NHL appearance, Detroit saw fit to retire his #5 in 2014. T... |
@HayesTSN @odognine2 @jamiemclennan29 @OverDrive1050 Amazing work by @EvanLSolomon on @ctvnewschannel today. Worth a read from @Sz1909_Szemberg . My take? Hockey on the full international surface (200ft x 100ft as opposed to 200 x 85 in NA) tends to lead to very defensive, low-scoring hockey. Maybe the “hybrid” dimens... |
Me: “How do I get to Nicholas Street from here?” |
OPP Officer (smiling): “Couldn’t tell you. I’m from Thunder Bay.” I neglected to include Finland’s silver at last year’s World Championship. Sorry Risto @puckarinen. Finland’s recent results in @IIHFHockey Men’s tournaments: |
2014: WJC 🥇 WC 🥈Olympic 🥉 |
2015: U18 🥈 |
2016: U18 🥇WJC 🥇 WC 🥈 |
2017: U18 🥈 |
2018: U18 🥇 |
2019: WJC 🥇 WC 🥇 |
2021: WJC 🥉 WC 🥈 |
2022: Olympic 🥇or 🥈 2022 WJC of course. What happens to the stats (Bedard’s 4 goal game) from the December tournament? There is precedent that while the games will be replayed, the individual scoring stats will count. That’s what happened when Game 4 of the 1988 Stanley Cup Final was cancelled due to a power outage... |
That was clutch. https://t.co/oB28QHZRgv We visited the Canadian Cemetery in Beny-Sur-Mer, France, went to the original Olympic Stadium in Athens and then to Kandahar, where we visited the Canadian (and other) soldiers posted there. It was a whirlwind of a trip, but as tired as we were, @pou29 was always up for more. ... |
In 2011, @pou29, Jayna Hefford, Jarome Iginla and I went on a trip to visit Canadian troops in Afghanistan, with stops in France and Greece. https://t.co/fCeblhfYkn In addition to scoring in all four Olympic Gold Medal Games in which she has played, @pou29 has scored a total of seven goals in those games, including the... |
She also scored the Golden Goal in last year’s Women’s World Championship. Most goals all-time, Olympic Women’s Hockey: |
GP Goals |
Hayley Wickenheiser 🇨🇦 26 18 |
Marie-Philip Poulin 🇨🇦 22* 17 |
Meghan Agosta 🇨🇦 20 17 |
*Through two periods of the 2022 Gold Medal Game. Make that seven goals in four Olympic Gold Medal games for Marie-Philip Poulin. The legend of @pou29 grows. In addition to scoring in all four Olympic Gold Medal Games in which she has played, @pou29 has scored a total of six goals in those games, including the GWG in 2... |
@gtconway3d https://t.co/1eBRNtAeNz And it should be pointed out that the originator of some of the most inventive TSN pools was none other than @davehodge20, who came up with (among others) the “No Goals” pool, where the most valuable players were the ones who played the most games in a season without scoring. I remem... |
(TSN, by the way, has long been a nefarious nest of gambling, arcane office pools and late-night card games.) In 2002, it was ruled that Slovakia’s NHL players-many of whom were already in Salt Lake City- couldn’t play in the pre-Olympic qualifying tournament. GM Peter Stastny seethed as his team didn’t qualify, but mo... |
