This week in anguish:
- We're still not sure we see the (non-financial) point in the push to finish this season, but since our conflicted feelings are the fuel this podcast runs on...
- It finally happened. JimJohn have the helm firmly in their clutches, the age of Judd is no more, and we can't help but be pre-jealous of whoever gets to have their team managed by our ever-growing collection of cast-offs.
- We talked a bit about Tryamkin, Tyler Myers, Micheal Ferland, Brock Boeser, and Chris Tanev, because the Canucks are still a hockey team that exists.
- How Did I Not Know Thats abound! Ardella owes Auston Matthews a quinceañero present, Tristan missed out on the existence of an entire summit series, and we are reminded of the extremely minor demands of the early NHL labour movements.
- This was the week that (a few) hockey players said out loud that Black Lives Matter, and we discuss the statements made by Jake, Brock, Troy, and Elias. We discuss CambieKev's 40,000 word intersectional opus on the culture of hockey and the need for societal change, and we conclude that no voice is too small in the struggle against police brutality and for racial equity.
