Having had the chance to learn about the small, but beautiful community of Tumbler Ridge while reporting in the north, this is devastating. Please keep the community in your thoughts. #TumblerRidge #BC

@CanucksArmy Who is hitting the panic button on Buium’s game?

There may be some ups and down with Buium’s game but there’s no reason to hit the panic button on his development. Presented by | Pacific Toyota Dealers

@Steelersmo85 @wyshynski So if he doesn’t think it should belong to them… and hasn’t mentioned anyone or anywhere else that it should go, other than himself, what on earth is he implying. He said there’s no reason he and Keller shouldn’t have them. There are reasons and it’s been that way for YEARS.

@Balzer_Jess @wyshynski It absolutely does not. It just says he doesn't think it belongs to them.

"Unfortunately, in the easiest words, it was never Jack's puck to own." The Hockey Hall of Fame said it will NOT give #NJDevils and Team USA star Jack Hughes the puck from his gold-medal winning goal in the Milan Cortina Olympics. My latest on ESPN: espn.com/nhl/story/_/id…

@YellowScc @BR_OpenIce @wyshynski Have you been to the HHOF? The puck doesn’t sit there by itself, it has a whole exhibit case from that particular event.

@BR_OpenIce @wyshynski This just makes all of this even more pathetic lol. It’s a piece of rubber that no one cares about. There’s millions of them. It doesn’t matter if you display it and say it’s this goal. Anyone going to a hof to look at a puck is dumb

"We try to take the emotion out of it. We're here to preserve a game that Jack's lucky enough to play or we're lucky enough to work in" The Hall has responded to Jack's thoughts about the "Golden Goal" puck 👀 (via @wyshynski)

@PatMcAfeeShow It is not *HIS* puck.

Let’s get Jack Hughes his puck back

"Bouchard should merit consideration to win the Norris... He's been the best defenceman in the league since December 1." @Bob_Stauffer joins @MattyMar89 and @FutaMichael to outline Evan Bouchard's case for the Norris Trophy.

@Steelersmo85 @wyshynski He said “why would they [HHOF] have that pick?” which is implying he thinks it is his.

@wyshynski When exactly did he say he owned it?

@DynastyDingus @wyshynski Yes.

@wyshynski If Sweden beats Finland in overtime for gold at the Olympics, does the puck go to Toronto? Genuinely curious

Final

@WBCBaseball @UnfortunateMLB

Team USA has arrived to the World Baseball Classic Final in GAME-USED United States Men's National Hockey Team jerseys.

@RealMichaelKay 😬 x.com/talkinbaseball…

Derek Jeter on Fox talking about those that say the WBC is bigger than the World Series: “(the one’s that say that) never played in a World Series.”

@espn @wyshynski Crosby was classy and didn’t whine about the whereabouts of the puck that he scored the golden goal with in 2010. The HHOF is where monumental pieces of equipment have always gone. How can he actually wonder why they have it?

Jack Hughes says he wants his gold-medal-winning overtime goal for Team USA in the Winter Games back from the Hockey Hall of Fame, which is displaying it in Toronto. Full story from @wyshynski ➡️ spr.ly/6011B6rWtW

@RealMichaelKay @YESNetwork Poor Meredith. 😂

Love working with this crew. Looking forward to the 2026 season. @YESNetwork

@RJHenderson7 That didn’t look indecisive. Saros made a great save.

So indecisive.

Really about to sign with my childhood team 🔵🟢

Mike Evans on joining the 49ers: "I feel like they were one piece away, and I think I'm that piece."

@Baltimore_MJD @IanSwanson_

@IanSwanson_ Because the plan was to get both of them…

The #Ravens held contract negotiations with Edge Rusher Trey Hendrickson while Maxx Crosby was in their facility yesterday. It doesn’t get much more low class than that.

@fosterandrew21 @SleeperNFL Did I say Shaheed is worth what he got? I said the fact that he can impact the game in multiple positions is most likely WHY SEATTLE gave him that contract. I’m happy Shaheed is back. Is it an overpay? Yes. But thinking Walker is worth being paid as a top 4 RB is laughable.

@Balzer_Jess @SleeperNFL If you think Shaheed is worth 51 million and Walker isn’t worth 43 million I cannot help you. I really like Shaheed but theres no way he impacts the game more than Walker.

This time tomorrow, a team will offer an absurd overpay to a player. CANNOT WAIT to see what happens 🤣

@fosterandrew21 @SleeperNFL Shaheed has value in multiple positions though. Special teams and as a receiver. He’s a threat in more area than one, which is more likely why Seattle brought him back.

@Balzer_Jess @SleeperNFL Same team that just gave Shaheed 51 million btw

@Sportsnet A major? What?

Nathan MacKinnon has received a five-minute major following a scary collision with Connor Ingram. Tristan Jarry has entered the game for Ingram.

@fosterandrew21 @SleeperNFL Walker’s usage was not full time because of his injury history when he had more of a workload.

@Balzer_Jess @SleeperNFL I’d argue Walker is immensely talented and it’s tough to say he’s not as talented as those guys. I think a big difference between those guys and Walker is usage. CMC had awful rushing numbers this year on 311 carries. Henry had 307 carries. Barkley had 280 carries. Walker had 221
