@UncleApes @Yam1rdr1 @DrJStrategy But yet 30 tankers have crossed the strait past 24 hours. So much for American Navy dominance. hormuzstraitmonitor.com

@Yam1rdr1 @MiloshOffical @DrJStrategy It's back in action after the laundry fire. It went for service briefly. Kind of funny a laundry fire can take an aircraft carrier out of service but not Iran 🤣

Food for thought. Yes, the New Great Game is unfolding. No nation stands to gain more from a closure of the Strait of Hormuz than the United States, across the short, medium, and long term. This logic is embedded in President Trump’s National Security Strategy, with the Trump Doctrine now visible in practice. Strategically, China loses on multiple fronts with Hormuz closed: seaborne Middle Eastern supplies are constrained just as Venezuelan crude is increasingly redirected toward the U.S. Gulf Coast on short, politically secure routes. At the same time, the Strait of Malacca, and with it, the broader Malacca Dilemma, moves to the center of gravity. In parallel, the Sunda, Lombok, Makassar, and Mindoro Straits remain critical arteries for Chinese trade and energy flows. Together, they constitute the geographic chokepoints of Beijing’s vulnerability, and Washington is acutely aware of this. Yes, the New Great Game is unfolding, and Wall Street has yet to comprehend the consequences.

The reality is Rogers isn’t firing Keith Pelley — he was handpicked by Ed Rogers to help justify and maximize the NHL broadcast deal, one of the most criticized media rights deals out there. Pelley played a key role in that $11B structure, and its perceived success is tightly tied to the performance and relevance of the Leafs in Ontario. This where the issue compounds. When you prioritize short-term wins and success to prop up a massive overvalue media rights deal, you end up with rushed, ill-advised decisions , like last year’s trade moves that mortgage the future for immediate optics. We’re all seeing the effects of that now. Using Pelley history to look in the future, it will not change. Pelley’s track record is consistent: chase quick fixes, repackage them as bold strategy, and overlook long-term stability. The risk is the same pattern repeats betting on unproven front office names (Sunny Metha or Brett Peterson) selling them as visionary hires, and setting the organization back decades instead of building it up. History never repeats itself, but it 100% rhythms.

@MiloshOffical @reporterchris @TheAthletic @jonassiegel @mirtle He has to go asap. He should be no where near making this new GM / operations decision. He defines ineptitude and gross negligence. The fanbase deserves better.

Total agreement. No NHL Insider has got the "balls" to actually press him on it. This isn’t new behavior from Keith Pelley, this is how he ran TSN, EU Golf and now MLSE, it’s been his MO for decades. At some point, you have to ask him directly, what did you think is going to happen when you keep your own inflated ego cause according to Keith "smartest man in room just ask him he never shy to brag" & prioritizing cost-cutting over the very people and product that drive the business?

@MiloshOffical @reporterchris @TheAthletic @jonassiegel @mirtle The problem is none of these reporters will put him on the spot and say hey Keith, this is your MO. What did you expect would happen???

@annmarie Iranian sanctioned supertanker crosses Strait of Hormuz despite claims of U.S blockade- this now brings total 25 ships past 2 hours. hormuzstraitmonitor.com

CENTCOM; US military blockade of Iranian ports had been “fully implemented.”
