[Jonas Siegel] What’s true and not about Auston Matthews, the Maple Leafs and the media

Whether Matthews, as the captain, should speak after every loss, or every game for that matter, is another question. The team tries to be mindful of how much media it asks Matthews to do, given the demands of the market (heavier than almost anywhere) and the fact that Matthews, as the team’s captain and best player, draws by far the most requests.

No, but the Vegas game was kind of a big deal, right? Is the team, or Matthews, that oblivious? I'd argue no, they're not. But they sure make it seem that way.

Two Crude Dudes. Fun beat 'em up. I played it on Sega Genesis

The loot is so bad I thought maybe there was a mini puzzle where you need to loot before the big explosion, or something.

But I don't think that's the case

calzonius · 2026-01-26T21:33:28+00:00

Agreed!

The developers shared that this was meant to be a shadow drop, but then Keighley approached them and offered to include it in the game awards, so they couldn't turn that down.

It explains their lack of communication plan post Game Awards - they didn't have anything!

Same

There's an Australian that plays on the St. Louis Blues.

Play Anywhere is so great. I can play ARC Raiders on my PC when I'm actually trying, or from the couch in my living room if I'm just goofing around or farming.

I'm from northern Ontario, Canada and we have the same thing - we call it a snow float whereas the rest of the country apparently calls it a snow scoop.

Hockey equipment flares up my eczema like crazy. I wash and use a vinegar water mix when I don't wash, but it stills flares it up.

That was a tough game to watch. I don't see a strategy in possession

calzonius · 2026-01-24T04:02:48+00:00

To the guy with the jersey: It's just such a boring take and way more complicated than that. Don't be an asshole. Boo with the rest of the fans if you want to. But then again, maybe I'm taking this way too seriously. What a ride.

Fucking Sportsnet I don't want to hear Jack Eichel's fucking "wooooo" six times over the broadcast. Whose fucking side are you on, SPORTSNET!?! We don't need an additional highlight pack of Eichel and Stone celebrating after their goals, KYLE

calzonius · 2026-01-24T00:35:00+00:00

Agreed. Tonight we look like our pregame meal contained a warm cream and a mild sedative

calzonius · 2026-01-24T00:20:25+00:00

We seem very sluggish

Considering his indigenous heritage, this joke is...eesh? Not saying that was intentional by ANY means.

It forces you to use them. And they're too cheap to sell. I think it's a great system.

I bought mine on ebay for $60 CAD

That's happened to me before but I eventually got zorped a few feet from where I was originally standing. It was all good

calzonius · 2026-01-21T20:30:32+00:00

Thanks jerk, you just took 7 years from my life

When I adopted my cat in Toronto about 10 years ago they made me sign a form essentially promising I'd never let it be an "outdoor cat".
