Now all those American players can go back to their Canadian teams and continue to suck in the playoffs and never win a cup.
I fully agree with Steve Dangle. When will a Canadian NHL team finally take the Stanley Cup?
If Buffalo wins it, would that count?
LOL! Man, I feel sorry for Buffalo, the Bills had numerous chances and the Sabres (in 2nd place!!!) drought continues. Are there Canadian Sabres fans watching from west bank of the Niagara River?
Probably. I've seen some Leafs' fans declare they've jumped ship, for the rest of the season at least.
One said they feel bad for the Eastern Conference bc there won't be a "Get Out of 1st Round Free" card since the Leafs won't make the playoffs.
Something from this podcast stood out to me.
He talks about how Austin Matthews is a great guy because he spends a lot of time at Sick Kids playing with the children. Does Austin sucking up to known big league pedofile Trump cast that in a different type of light? Just speculating.
The single most important purity test is Trump. Abraham Lincoln, Ghandi, Martin Luther King Jr., Mr Rogers, and uhh Eleanor Roosevelt would instantly become terrible people if they shook Trump's hand, regardless of anything else they did or accomplished in life. That's how it works. It's like King Midas kinda.
Ghandi had his own issues with sleeping with young girls.
Doesn't surprise me tbh. I'm pretty cynical about powerful people in general. I think if we knew everything there are very few who would survive with reputations intact.
King Mierdas
I wouldn't shake Trump's hand. It has been up someone's asshole, and they didn't consent.
It may be worth it if you had a chance to say 'how tiny' as you clasped his hand. Though representing the NHL not like they could do that, or most people in his insulated environment.
I’m about to say sounds silly but I say it often.
“He wants to make all of Canada a single state…wouldn’t you break it up into multiple states? With Canada as the 51 state be the new powerhouse? Like California? Because Canada is like a whole ass country”
And I know that’s not the issue. The issue is that he’d threaten war at all… but imagine the entirety as Canada as one single state. Also Venezuela is the 52 state. Iran and Greenland are combined to the 53 state because fuck it its nearly 5 o’clock”
Puerto Rico will remain not a state
Trump doesn't spend time thinking about the practicalities of something like this, because when he says "51st state" what he means is "The latest expansion of my kingly domain."
He has zero intention of letting newly subjugated Canadians vote. He doesn't even want to let Americans vote. These are the fantasies of an autocrat, not carefully thought out plans.
He's just a spoiled rich kid in a toy store, demanding everything he sets his eyes on: "I want Greenland! I want Canada! I want everything!"
His parents were monsters, so they indulged him, and so did everybody around him for his entire life, and now he thinks that's what life is - he gets whatever he demands, because he's better than everybody else, obviously. And for some reason, those around him continue to indulge him.
What he needs, is a spanking.
If Canada was a state, the Republicans would never win the electoral college again. There would never be another Republican president.
And the House of Representatives would be permanently blue.
And even just 2 more senators would be a massive risk for the Republicans too. If each province was a state, it would be game over in the senate as well.
California, Texas, New York, and Canada would all be blue in 2028. There are only so many Floridas and Texas is not guaranteed.
And if the Canadians in Florida and Arizona and Nevada could vote, they may not be as red anymore either.
Canada will never be a state. But it would certainly kill the US Republican Party if it did.
Making it 4-5 states would hand the Dems the senate. They want another Puerto Rico with no real representation.
Professional sports are state sponsored to promote patriotism. Sports leagues are made to empower and legitimize people like Trump.
As a European, I disagree hard on this. Sports is mostly about community, local clubs and entertainment for the 9-5 worker. To have something that takes away the thoughts of the housing loan, ensurance bills, health, kids, job, etc.
Well, I thought the bread circuses side was so obvious it wasn't worth a mention. Docile and irrationally in support of the state is the kind of people sports are made to make.
That doesn't really seem newsworthy. Basically, "podcaster says something".
I feel a certain kind of way towards Canadians who are willing to take foreign money to promote separatist views that would be used to extract from them. I feel a certain kind of way towards Canadians who would work with our enemies against us and sowe pointless division between us
Media outlets should not repeat “51st state”.
All mainstream media does is give publicity to Chump
I thought it was known that a lot of NHL players vote for and support Republicans.
I say this from the US, only shake my president's hand if you spit on it first.
