From @FarhanLaljiTSN - Why Nathan Rourke and the Lions are hitting the ground running for year two under Buck Pierce, and also touching on their big hole on the defensive side of the ball and how they plan to remedy it: tsn.ca/cfl/video/2026…

@Sean_B_taketwo @FarhanLaljiTSN @tyson_cole Not like Aqua would listen to him anyway. Now he can go back to Boston where SweeNeely also don’t listen to him.
English
@FarhanLaljiTSN @tyson_cole By “overplayed his hand” I wonder if that means “advocated for meaningful changes.”
English
Irf reporting that Ryan Johnson will be the #Canucks next head of hockey operations. I’ve heard Gold may have overplayed his hand over the past 48 hours. Certainly the fit between the Sedin’s and RJ will be a much cleaner one than connecting the twins with someone they’d never worked with.
English
@VancouverKnit @DhaliwalSports Francesco probably holding out on a decision in hopes he can get Dorion quietly back in the mix.
English
@DhaliwalSports Organization is so unserious. It’s embarrassing at this point
English
As of this morning the Canucks gave not decided on a GM, Ryan Johnson is still in the mix.
English
@CFLLATENEWS And now TSN has their own guy in charge. Won’t be shocked to see a sweetheart deal in TSN’s favour.
English
Many critisize TSN but there is no doubt they have grown this league financially. TV Rights $ as per article...
2008 $15M
2014 $43M
2019 $50M
No doubt they do pay for exclustivety. Will be interested what total $ for TV/Streaming deal is.
Our guess using no thought? $63.56 M.

@MassMan44 @JayJanower @GlobalBC Best case scenario is a 4-5 year lease at BC Place while a new stadium is being built. But without a new stadium I don’t see what a 4-5yr lease does to help the club in its current state.
English
Good Whitecaps news on the horizon? @GlobalBC Sports has learned FIFA VP Victor Montagliani, representatives of 3 local First Nations bands, City of Vancouver, Provincial/Fed govt and MLS officials meeting on Weds..hope is to get MOU signed on new 4-5yr BC Place.
English
The nations getting involved is very good news.

@EBERFRAUD @Hockey_Robinson SweeNeely aren’t going to listen to any fresh voices. They’ll run the franchise themselves like Burns and Smithers.

English
@Hockey_Robinson Fair point but Bruins could also use some fresh eyes and voices in that front office
English
Are the Bruins really going to let both their AGMs AND their Head of Analytics all walk at once? With only one seeing a promotion.
Such a personnel drain would be unprecedented among front office shuffles in recent memory.
Taj@taj1944
Dhaliwal was about to say Langenbrunner and Rogalski are probably coming with Gold (if it's him) from Boston but got distracted and sidetracked. 🤣🤣 @DonnieandDhali
English
@Hockey_Robinson I can assure you SweeNeely do NOT care about analytics. If they did, they wouldn’t be so infatuated with bottom 6 grinders. If they lose Rogalski, I doubt he’s replaced and they instead resort to using AI.
English
@St__Troy @Jessemedscience SweeNeely are still trying to build a roster that will beat the 2019 Blues.
English
@Jessemedscience I keep thinking there must be an obscure bottom-6 metric out there that Sweeney is devoted to.
English
Don Sweeney saw FLA, who is light years ahead of his team, tank for the lottery, and said “We got a chance at the Cup” 🤡🤦🏾
FLA will be healthy, be a top contender, and in the process they will have the #9 overall pick and probably select a guy you had high on your list
They played the game the right way, you didn’t…

@BruinsWyan2 That’s cool and all, but a couple more bottom six grinders should do the trick.
English
Are we beginning to see why the Bruins are so lacking yet?

@VaxxersAnti It’s all performative. Guaranteed they’re completing them online.

After opening her Census envelope by biting chunks out of it, Dawn prepares it for it's return journey to Ottawa.
Bonus Giggles: Pause at 11 secs and see where she wrote "Retern" and then tried to scribble it out.
English
@gregnog4073 Playing for the Bruins and being buddies with Neely doesn’t hurt either.
English
Only reason he still has a job is because Tuukka Rask dragged that 2019 team to game 7 of the finals
Bruins Media@BruinsMedia11
How would you rate Don Sweeney tenure in Boston? The Bruins have made playoffs in 9 out of 11 season with him at the helm and have a record of 458-233-91, tied for best the in the league over that span.
English
@jmacyourlife @PiotrRetardo @TOSportsAdam As a Bruins fan, this Ducks team would steal the B’s lunch money in a best of 7 series.
English
@PiotrRetardo @TOSportsAdam If you think Utah and the Ducks are even remotely close to the caliber of Florida, Tampa, and Boston. All 3 killers of the past 7 years that the Leafs have had to face. 2 of them went on to win 4 cups during that time
English
@BleedOilBlue Sweeney received a first rounder for freaking Brandon Carlo. You really want to play this game? 🤣
English
Soon to be 30 year old David Pastrnak knows the clock is ticking.
If he truly wants a Stanley Cup, maybe at some point he has to consider leaving Boston.
And maybe… just maybe… he wants the chance to play beside two Oilers superstars . 👀
English
@bromtheB @ITRConnor Agreed. He’s with a great club in Vaxjo and will hopefully be battling for a World Junior spot this coming winter. No point rushing him.
English
@downtown55brown @ITRConnor Petterson is also 19 freakin years old. My god the expectations are so out of whack. Defenseman need more time to develop, period. he’s likely not even ready for the AHL.
English
Multiple prospects in the AHL PBruins have changed agents & multiple prospects just refused to sign in the AHL.
There’s a problem brewing in the Bruins development program.
It’s getting worse and worse while everyone is distracted with a lackluster NHL roster.
Ty Anderson@_TyAnderson
On top of this, the amount of times I’ve heard about young players being outright demoralized and feeling stuck, really have to wonder if it’s time for a change.
English
@dominictiano Did Johansson have any NCAA offers? If not, playing as a 20yo in Moncton or elsewhere in the Q wouldn’t have been ideal either.
English
Look at Loke Johansson. Late round pick - yes. But there was something to like there, so much so that they signed him to an ELC early.
Spent most of his time in Providence watching thet he only got 13 games, basically as an injury full in. When they finally realized that he needed ice time, they sent him to Maine and he got a whopping 32 games in there - half the season. Basically a lost year of development.
But this isn't just a Mougenel problem. It starts at the top.

English
@ITRConnor @bromtheB Right move for Pettersson IMO. Let him get some SHL time before coming over.
English
@bromtheB Gasseau is taking himself to free agency in August. Pelosi and Groenewold both returning to NCAA. Liam Pettersson (rumored to be jumping to NA) now signs in the SHL instead.
Lysell & Poitras changed agents mid-season.
English
@PeterTenkrat He passes the eye test. Just like all their failed draft picks. All SweeNeely cares about. If Gold is hired by Vancouver and Rogalski joins him, I can see them shutting down the analytics department.
English
Mougenel doesn’t help develop prospects to get them to the next step very well and doesn’t win in the playoffs with AHL vet packed rosters, how is he so amazing what am I missing?

From the LATimes
"The #Whitecaps have reportedly lost more than $300 million since joining MLS 15 years ago and they are forecast to lose as much as $45 million this season."
45. Mill.
Dang.
English
@BBoberetta @Buckfoston League wants them in Vegas. Only way I see them approving m a local sale is if a group comes in with 500-600M CAD and secured funding for a new stadium.
English
@Buckfoston At this point we need the MLS to block it. If Vegas wants a team let them pony up an expansion fee. Obviously this could be done with a relocation fee as well but if caps fans can convince the MLS not to bail then they may prevent us moving.
English
Per Dhali, he's been told Whitecaps ownership, Kerfoot, Nash are not going to talk and we just have to get over it.
