Also, my olive branch to our friends to the north, the theme from The Red Green Show. If my wife's watchin', I'll be coming straight home after the meetin'. Thank you very much for tuning in, on behalf of myself and the rest of the gang here at lodge, till next time, keep your stick on the ice.

Can't help but feel like there are some thorns hiding amongst those Maple Leafs after a result like tonight, so here's 'Roses' by OutKast

The 'Godspeed, Shorty' got me

And with an action packed game, seemed fitting to get some @actionadventure.bsky.social in the mix with 'Real Juicer Hours'

A tough fought game til the end, and while the Kraken couldn't quite grind out a win in OT, here's 'The Grind Date" by De La Soul

Taking a break from our regularly scheduled programming, I cannot overstate the vast improvement in my day since watching this baby tapir toddle about

In honor of Black History Month and #SeaKraken's celebration of that tomorrow, please make some time to get to know more about our friend and anthem singer, Tommie Burton www.nhl.com/kraken/news/...

Also, bonus round to mark the rare occasion that it snowed in Seattle today, here's 'Snow (Hey Oh)' by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Okay campers, rise and shine, but don't forget your booties cuz it's coooooold out there today! Not a result I'd prefer to me keep reliving, so hopefully Tuesday comes tomorrow as expected.... ('I Got You Babe' by Sonny & Cher)

Remembering for no reason that what broke phil connors out of his nightmare loop of death and grinding, soul crushingly banal repetition was working to become a person who cared very deeply about and very carefully for the people around him. Just a thought, now that it's Groundhog Day. Again.

Also, a nice bounce back game for the Kraken! Lots of energy and spark on the ice, proving (to paraphrase Charly Bliss) we're not done yet! ('I'm Not Dead' by Charly Bliss)

In the crossover event of the season (insert Mr. Peanutbutter here), heres my attempt at Sharks organist @kseal.bsky.social original 'Get the Water Hot' (turned the dial a bit from 'groovy' to 'jaunty' for the occasion) I'll refrain from any Sharks-got-in-some-hot-water-in-the-2nd jokes...

there aren't many instruments like this, but basically any time I hear a baritone saxophone, in any musical style or context, my immediate reaction is "hell yeah"

There are secrets that sleep with ol' Davy Jones, but how to beat the Penguins is not one of them. Here's 'Shiver My Timbers' from Muppet Treasure Island for todays Kids Day victory!

It's been a minute since I've done something Incredibly Foolish, so today for the Kid's Game, I'm going to try to get through the soundtrack of a classic kids movie about swashbucklers on which Hans Zimmer did some scoring....but probably not the one you'd think!

I think The Beths put it pretty well in 'Mars, the God of War' when they said "I wish that I could wish you well/Instead I'm hitting my head/and hitting backspace on/'Can't you just go to hell?' " Oh well, onto the next one!

If you need something fun this morning, might I suggest this, and then check out some other of Ulysses Owens Jr. and Generation Y's work youtu.be/3pYHCGYJbw0?...

A sampling of some of the tracks for MLK day: 'Prison Song' by Carlton Williams from The 'Selma' Album and the sample in 'Mask Off' by Future,

In related news, North Sea Jazz has posted an official video of his 2015 set, thus filling a void in my life since the non-official ones got taken down
