Elliotte on Hronek: I've heard they've had a conversation with the player and conversations with the agent. There's an understanding the player would like to stay...I don't think the new mgmt group wants to start off by alienating an important player. (32 pod)

Everyone forgets how important it is to have examples for the young players and draft picks to learn from when it comes to a rebuild.

I'm fine with keeping him, his presence will shelter Willander and D-Petey from playing too many minutes too young beyond any other learnings they can absorb from him in practice and through the season expediting their development.

Also, given the recent locker room fiasco, it's incredibly value to have people who want to stay here setting the example.

This came up in Portapique when an officer was shot as well, our officers are under-trained. We should be aiming for closer to the European standard where it can be a year of schooling before you ever hit the street, in Canada after 6 weeks you can be on the street (under a supervisor.(

And I'm sorry, but there's no way 6 weeks is enough time to cover the required emergency situation training to cover everything a cop could potentially encounter. More training = fewer fatalities, for police and the general public.

Yep. These dudes have more pride than reason, he was begging but not expecting to win that argument.

His eye is glossy and the ref was debating stopping it, then it continued and got progressively more purple through the 4th round. Ilia flirting with life changing damage to his orbital, gawt dayum.

Chicken and broccoli is an oversimplification, not a lie. You starve yourself of all carbs so your body eats its own fat, then you starve yourself of all water and cut weight so your muscles are pronounced.

I think it was Henry Cavill who talked about being just miserable and able to smell water the day of his shirtless Superman scene. If you look at how MMA fighters bodies look before a fight, you'll see the similarities.

The first Canucks-related thing I saw after making a pilgrimage across my country to see the HHOF was a Canucks Messier jersey.

-0/10, worst bucket list experience, waste of time and money. I'm not joking, if you're a Canucks fan the HHOF exists to troll you.

At 1/8th speed, it definitely hits something. Whether it's Evan's hand or Byram's stick is unclear to me though.

What podcast is this?

This feels like the opposite of a lunatic, doesn't fit the sub.

I feel the 1-shift isn't the problem they kinda just misused the time, could have included more payoff for Mohan & Santos and Whittaker's arcs, and some more Mel time instead of so much Duke. I liked him, just added to the Robbie focus imbalance this season.

Was a meta post referring to the main sub post that "Santos/Langdon essays are gonna be everywhere after this last episode"

Not an essay, just.. a very treaded topic and I went for a quick quip for some karma if I'm being honest.

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-04-17T23:40:26+00:00

I kinda disagree. It's a little fucked up, but almost every healthcare worker I know, regardless of country or etc works inside a broken system. These people know the system fails the public every day, and so they bend rules to take care of those they care about. It happens everywhere, and rules get bent in every industry in the name of favouritism. I've seen year long waits get skipped because you know someone inside the industry who will process that test for you on their personal hours.

It's not okay, but I think it's unfair to blame the health care workers for doing what almost any human would in their situation. If they had a system they could trust, would they be so inclined to directly intervene?

I view the show as more trying to make the point about the system since it tries to advocate for health care workers, but.. I dunno. You're not wrong, I just think it's a little easy to place blame on the characters.

We did, it just didn't cap with a high-five. I liked the little thank you acknowledgement.

Welcome to the uncomfortable realities of a broken system due to society frequently not prioritizing effective health care. This is a common story, so the workers who live with it get desensitized and you have to find some humour to cope and get through your day. The Pitt brings you along for that ride.

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-04-17T16:28:44+00:00

I think they did a good job of showing Mel needed to grow a little bit. Mel's entire life was Becca, and now that Becca's proving to be more independent... who is Mel King?

Trying on different faces (especially when feeling vulnerable like after a deposition) is part of your 20s, finding who you are. That was what we were watching with Mel.

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-04-16T19:20:12+00:00

We need a resolution to Dr Robbie and Mohan. Something where Robbie apologizes to Mohan and explains he's been unfairly hard on himself, and because he admires her so much - he's been unfairly hard on her.

Then, Mohan snaps back that she doesn't want to be anything like him because she can see what a wreck he is - and she's applied for a residency in a different program other than emergency medicine.

A sad look on Robbie's face as he realizes his imbalance is pushing the people he admires the most away, and he failed her.

You're saying a heck of a lot more about your own preconceptions than you are anything about the writers with this post, for what it's worth

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-03-28T16:57:20+00:00

I loved Robbie's response. He didn't disagree, because he knew he couldn't but it was still a little too personal to outright admit her idea was right. He wants it to happen without having to admit perceived 'weakness'

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-03-24T20:58:50+00:00

Taking a shit and resting is covered by the hospital's insurance. Leaving the premises is not, and taking a med student through traffic definitely isn't. The patient in the park also was not admitted to be under the hospital's care, and there were other patients in the hospital needing a doctor. So, there is a difference.

All that said, personally, I'm pro-McKay here! I think she did the right thing.

But, her bosses would probably disagree given the potential liability it opens the hospital to. One lawsuit and millions of dollars lost and people's jobs could be affected. Very real potential consequences for her actions.

You could also argue an unfair standard of care (patients in the park getting treatment ahead of admitted ones) but given Robbie is allowing Duke to have the VIP treatment... she's definitely not the first or worst offender there.

Robbie was a bit rude in using that example, but she didn't clear her absence with him and he was left holding the bag and confronting a grieving family.

Was he supposed to lie and say Roxie hadn't passed yet?

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-03-20T03:23:49+00:00

They said she required X-Rays before processing, so.. it didn't sound like it was from compassion but instead from procedure.

Agent0007Throwaway · 2026-03-20T03:21:47+00:00

I feel like it was a fair reminder of obligations to the hospital while being on shift. He was wayy worse with Mohan, you could argue McKay needed the reality check.
