Da Pope

Episode XIV: A New Pope

But what does the Pope think of The Bear?

Somebody get this Pope a watch or this ceremony is gonna be Pope-poned.

White Smoke? Shelton gone from Pirates? Clearly the obvious answer is Pope Derek Shelton.

Jets need to stop looking for the perfect play and get traffic and shots on net.

Mikko Rantanen just delivered one of the greatest revenge performances in sports history. A hat-trick and an assist in the third period of Game 7 against his former team.

Even a depleted Stars team is super dangerous.

Maybe Colorado shouldn't have traded away that guy?

Don't be surprised if Dubas looks to someone without NHL head coach experience. He has talked about Carberry many times, so have to imagine he will look for someone like that.

FINALLY

Anthony Beauvillier with a huge game tonight for the Caps. The former Penguin had a goal and the assist on the overtime winner.

Ovechkin is just so good still.

Love that Beau buried one.

New Jersey just looks entirely outclassed by Carolina. At this rate, the series will be over in 2 and a half games...

Binnington is absolutely going to lose it this series. The Jets are too good.

Torts and Lavy fired in the same season?

I'm not ready to think of anything NHL without them.

THE GREAT EIGHT PASSES THE GREAT ONE 💥 Move over, Wayne Gretzky. Alex Ovechkin stands alone atop the NHL's all-time goal scoring list.

Congrats Ovi! #895

Crosby > Ovechkin

Gretzky scored 9 goals in 70 games in his final year.

Gretzky sitting with Kash Patel is definitely a thing that is happening during this Capitals game.

What a blast by Ovi. Nothing but respect for that shot.

Regardless of how you feel about Schumer's choice, he completely fumbled everything about it and this is the type of thing that has traditionally been the end of party leadership.

Reports that Schumer told his caucus that the GOP do not have the Senate votes to pass the House CR. Senator Whitehouse says he'll be speaking about it shortly on the Senate floor. Suggests the House CR is dead, with Senate Dems focusing on a 30 day short-term CR.

Most-ratioed post in Bluesky history?

If it's between Russ or Rodgers I hope the Steelers pay Russ whatever he wants.

Steelers: Making offer to QB Sam Darnold Steelers fans: why would he come here, he has no one to throw to?!?! Steelers:

🚨 🚨 🚨 The Seahawks are trading WR DK Metcalf to the Steelers for premium draft pick compensation, per me and @tompelissero.bsky.social, as finally(!) Pittsburgh gets its big-play weapon. Metcalf will also get a contract extension to go with the trade.

Colby Armstrong talking about the possibility of Mitch Marner coming to Pittsburgh in the off-season and let me just say.... I love it!

The Penguins have traded Anthony Beauvillier to Washington for a second-round pick in 2025. #Pens

I'm a big fan of Beau, but a 2nd is wild for him. We're quickly approaching 2 2nds for Douglas Murray territory this deadline.

For a 2025 2nd

If the rumored price for Marchand, Rantanen, and other is true, then Dubas should absolutely trade Rakell.

Friends, I can’t take this 1 minute video limit anymore and no posting YouTube links is not sufficient. You can’t upload 15 YouTube videos in the span of 10 minutes. BlueSky cannot be a platform that encourages people to leave Twitter, Threads and have a one minute video limit.

EK had that! My goodness.

It's clear the Penguins season has been statistically over for quite some time, but I'm at least enjoying the back and forth hockey whether they win or not.

Trade Rakell before the 3rd period ends!

What a move by Rusty!

What is wrong with this team? Another goal on their opponents first shot? My goodness.

The Caps are absolutely legit. My goodness.

And zero shots by Ovechkin.

Just sell off the whole team already. They're cooked.
