Very sad to hear Bill Riley has passed away. He was the third Black player in the NHL; he worked hard to make hockey a better sport. He mentored so many and was generous with his time and expertise. He even shared his love of gardening with me. My thoughts are with his family

There were THREE trans non-binary athletes at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Three.
Quinn (🇨🇦 soccer), Nikki Hiltz (🇺🇸 athletics), and Hergie Bacyadan (🇵🇭 boxing).
This hysteria is so harmful. And this is part of Kirsty Coventry's legacy.

The women's category of Olympic sports will be limited to biological females from 2028, says the International Olympic Committee. Eligibility will be determined by a "once in a lifetime" sex test, which would prevent transgender women and those with differences in sexual development (DSD) from competing. It will take effect from the Los Angeles Olympics. IOC president Kirsty Coventry said the policy was "led by medical experts".

So every time the Penguins score now it’s goaltender interference?

Good for the Penguins. Point to the rules. They exist for a reason
Josh Yohe@JoshYohe_PGH
The Penguins just printed these out for the media in regards to goalie interfere rulings. Yes, by the book, absolutely was goalie interference.

Karlsson is great. I love it when people celebrate your wins, no matter what they might look like to outsiders.

I love Erik Karlsson man, you can tell this Noel Acciari 10 assist inside joke was fully his idea and his plan. 1st talks about it in an interview and then look at his reaction in the locker room 🤣🤣

Evgeni Malkin has played about 35 seconds of hockey and taken an offensive zone penalty and then scored a highlight reel goal. That is perfect.
