Congrats To Andrew “The Hamburglar” Hammond

After injuries to their top two goalies, third-string Ottawa Senators’ goalie (and possible long-lost distant cousin?) Andrew Hammond was an emergency call-up for the Sens a month ago. In that short time, Hammond has set his team on fire while tying a record for goalies at the start of their career that stretches back to 1938.  In each […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt -Team Meili

Realized while I was at the CUPE convention last week that its been two years since the last NDP Leadership race. Here’s a few pics from the campaign I had kicking around. (It’s crazy how these pics take me right back to one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life!) w? ? ? ?? […]
