  1. https://globalnews.ca/news/9901527/yellowknife-evacuation-order-wildfires/ The N.W.T. is grappling with more than 200 wildfires that have already burned an area four times the size of Prince Edward Island. Already eight communities have evacuated, representing 15 per cent — or nearly 6,800 people — of the territory’s population.
  2. Major surgery so far has been good. We are waiting for it to heal and see the final results. Still remain to be seen who is in shape for camp (Pearson?), which young guys is ready to step up (podz, hog, Ratu, etc), and team chemistry with so many new players. Not to mention new staff getting their first training camp. Another bad start to the season will not be acceptable. But playoffs chances are too early to tell though. I thought they had a chance last season and they laid an egg.
  3. quite a contrast to the US political news now.
  4. Well, co-host NZ is out already. Need their best game so far to advance. https://www.threads.net/@tsn_official/post/CvUNThIu2sz/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  5. Nigeria's win sets stage for massive Canada-Australia matchup | TSN Canadian women's team goes to ground, limits media access at FIFA World Cup | TSN Canadian women's team goes to ground, limits media access at FIFA World Cup PERTH, Australia — With its tournament future on the line, Canada has gone to ground at the FIFA Women's World Cup. In the wake of Wednesday's 2-1 win over Ireland, the Canadian team plans no media access until the mandatory pre-game news conference Sunday, following training, ahead of Monday's do-or-die game with Australia at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium. "With the accumulated load from the past month, the tech team has decided to give the players extra days off," team spokeswoman Marianne Gagne told The Canadian Press in an email. "We will only be training on MD-2 (matchday-minus two) and MD-1 (matchday-minus one), with only MD-1 open to the media. I want to reiterate that any decisions around opening or closing training sessions to the media are made as a consensus between the tech team, players, and I. 'We are looking into offering other opportunities to media … as we understand this offers a limited amount of access going into a very decisive game." Given a loss to Australia could end Canada's tournament, Plan B may be moot. Access to Canadian players has been tightly controlled in Australia, with limited scrum interview opportunities after training. Rest days and closed practice sessions have also cut into availability. It's the second straight tournament that Canada Soccer has drawn criticism for its media policy. In Qatar at the men's World Cup, reporters complained of a lack of access to high-profile players. But Canada Soccer did routinely make members of the Canadian squad available in Qatar, unlike this tournament. The seventh-ranked Canadians will advance to the knockout round of 16 with a draw or win against No. 10 Australia. Canada could also move on with a defeat, providing No. 40 Nigeria loses to No. 22 Ireland and the final goal difference favours the Canadians. ---
  6. We need that Cammi meme as a gif once Tom becomes a NHL player.
  7. Good to see that the group is not just a bunch of yes man/woman. JR said he wanted diverse opinions. PA also seems to be interested in everyone's take before deciding.
  8. If true, that's fine. I liked him when he was doing Nux radio. Hope Ray can do some games too. He's good on TV.
  9. Aren't we glad Wings took him at 6, so nux could get QH at 7? Not much doubt now who drafted the right player.
  10. Improved in ahl last season. Time to step up into the big league..
