Heading to Vancouver next week to visit my son who is in graduate school at UBC. He said they are boycotting restaurants and products that are American. He is a dual American Canadian citizen but when it comes to hockey and democracy the Canadian genes are dominant

Listening to the @habsonreddit.bsky.social vs Canes on the flight back to SFO. Habs up 3-0 in 2nd period. So what are their odds of making a playoff spot if they win this one? 3%?
