Vegas Knights Win The 2023 Stanley Cup

Just as I predicted… (But all kidding aside, the Knights showed signs of this potential from the moment they entered the league.) Another NHL season comes to a close where memories were made, stars were born and history was etched into the books. ? pic.twitter.com/RCNAzEJ61p — Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) June 14, 2023  

Wine Choices

This chart has nothing to do with the Leafs avoiding the sweep and the Oilers looking like they might have a blow-out shutout (SHUT-OUT!) win tonight.

Why The Flames Sucked This Year (It’s A Long List)

Now that the playoffs have started and the Flames, who were predicted to be a top team at the start of the season, missed making the playoffs in the final week of the season. That means they end up in their traditional “absolutely middle of the pack” position they usually get in years they suck, […]

Music Monday – “Clicking sticks three times/Drawing ‘er back to your own line/Top shelf and we’re up by one/Ringing ‘em off the crossbars/Moving our nets for the cars/And all together we’d yell ‘Game on!’/And then our folks would call us in/And we all agreed ‘Next goal wins'”

“More Than A Game” – Mike Plume Band I didn’t put a lot of thought into this (well, except picking whoever was against the Oilers and Leafs!) but here’s my picks for this year’s Stanley Cup Playoffs…

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – The Greatest Saskatoon Blade of All-Time (March 2015)

Sasha and I got to meet Wendel Clark at “Hometown Hockey” in Regina back in 2015.  (Even had a funny exchange with a hero from my childhood.) Kinda funny that his junior numbers weren’t amazing (he’s no Connor Bedard, that’s for sure!) but I suspect it was actually his PIM which helped him go first […]

Connor Bedard Is Having An All-Time Season

This article is from mid-March but it’s still amazing how dominant Connor Bedard has been and what a privilege it’s been that he’s playing in Regina so I’ve been able to see him play a few times. Draft-eligible seasons: • McDavid (47GP) – 44G, 120PTS• Bedard (47GP) – 59G, 123PTS He’s 7 months younger. He […]

Saturday Snap – The Real Stars of the @WHLPats Game

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Flames and Isles (1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1989)

A bit of a different Throwback Thursday post today as it’s not an actual old photo. Instead, it represents some fond memories from a long time ago. I found two pendants on Facebook Marketplace that were part of a larger series for Cup-winning teams.  These happen to be two of my favourite teams – the […]
