"I just hope Canada is proud. Cause every player in that room is proud to be a Canadian…Canada needed a win. The players beared that on their shoulders & took it seriously. This one was different. This wasn't a win for themselves. This was a win for 40+ million people...” - Coach Jon Cooper πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

In the past two weeks, Donald Trump has jinxed both the Kansas City Chiefs and Team USA *on game day*

1972 🀝 1987 🀝 2025 Canada defeats a dictatorship in a do-or-die best-on-best hockey tournament. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ€˜πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ€˜πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ€˜πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ€˜πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ€˜

β€œGet in loser. We’re burning down the White House” #4nations #canada #usa

Tonight's Canada/USA game and its excellence and passion, – combined with the fact that Connor McDavid is 28, Nathan MacKinnon is 29, and Sidney Crosby is 37 – really reminds you that we have been robbed of a generational rivalry and amazing decade of best-on-best hockey. #4nations

If you read 1 book a month, you're a #reader. If you read 1 book every other month, you're a reader. If it takes you 6 months to read 1 book, you're a reader. If it takes you a year to finish 1 book, you're a reader. Whether audibook, comic, graphic novel, manga, etc., you are a reader. #booksky

"I don't think he was expecting what he got from it" was such a *hard* answer from Brandon Hagel πŸ’ͺ #gohcanada #4nations

Well, as a Canadian, it's a good day to not have Twitter anymore. #4nations

Every real Canadian is channelling Chris Rock right now #4nations

Cale Makar is out. The United States really could pick apart Canada tonight when 97-29-87 aren't on the ice, like limb-from-limb. #4nations

I actually don't think Myles Garrett gets traded this offseason. Or, if he does, it's considered wildly underwhelming. Any team that has the draft capital (and 1st round position) Cleveland wants is in – or near – the same spot as the Browns, and therefore won't appeal to Garrett. (1/2)

Happy Flag Day πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Good morning #Bluesky friends, have a great weekend. Here’s a photo of Orion that I took at Loch Morlich, near Aviemore in the beautiful Scottish Highlands.

This is our Canada, our flag is a symbol of unity and peace. #OCanada #FlagDay #Canada #CanadaIsUnited #MapleLeaf 🍁Vive 🍁 le 🍁 Canada πŸπŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ

β€œOkay, fine. But I want my objection noted…”

This is a really good resource if you’re an #NFLDraft head, putting this year’s prospects in context.

Just typing this up, I realize I would be fired now for what I would have posted as a 14-year-old if social media existed during the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics.

My favourite part of the new O.J. Simpson doc is when O.J. tells David Letterman, "I was a good kid. I got in trouble a lot."

Tomorrow's game is a toss-up. Canada's top-end is higher than the USA's – quite definitively, even with Eichel, Matthews, Fox, etc. But the USA's depth – both at forward and on the blueline – is superior to Canada's. McDavid, MacKinnon, Crosby, and Makar will need to win this game. #4Nations

A shoutout to the Ringer Fantasy Football Show – and specifically @dannybkelly.bsky.social – for plugging Blue Sky enough to make me migrate here. As a Canadian right now especially, Twitter is just too hard to take – it's not good for any of us Canucks mentally. Happy to be here πŸ‘Š

Morning mood. #resist #resistance

Most fun Deebo landing spots: - New York Jets - LA (Rams or Chargers) - Buffalo - Houston - Dallas

If your argument is "sure, a terrible modern event has a parallel in the 1920s and 30s but don't worry we turned out just fine", might I suggest reading about the 1940s.

Nothing has ever made me feel quite as old as signing up for @bsky.app and having the default Date Of Birth be the year I graduated high school.
