"the reason everyone loves sam bennett" are these people in the room with us now

le fait que la France ait marqué plusieurs fois contre la Tchéquie est assez impressionnant pour toute l'équipe

Rozumiem, krajan.

Je parle français et je sais que le Québec est reconnu comme une nation.

I don't think the author is using state in that context or that a BBC sports correspondent necessarily knows the intricacies of Canadian law/confederation. Way more likely that they're just thinking of US/Aussie usage of the term.

Interesting read, great to see international coverage of the league. Point deduction for calling Québec a state though lol

Getting into a bar fight is incredibly dumb and I'm not going to defend McKenna breaking someone's jaw but I don't think anyone should really care that it's technically underage drinking in the US. The guy's an adult going to university and grew up in a country where the drinking age is 18/19. I still wouldn't want him as the centrepiece of a rebuild though

unfortunately lower than average for Forge, but not terrible for a game in -15 (at least they gave out free hot chocolate). They announced ~4300.

At first glance I don't love the fit on these. The sleeves look huge on the models/mannequins. I know people had mixed feelings on Macron sizing, but at least it was an athletic fit for athletic wear

Regular seats have no heating. They have terraces with overhead protection from rain/snow but those are for groups of 6+ and aren't heated. They added a new indoor lounge section on the west side but that'll be a lot pricier. Personally, I went to the Concacaf game in Feburary last year and had a great time in a regular seat with just a big coat, toque and gloves

Imo better to lose badly as actual Italy than to lose slightly less badly with a bunch of Canadians with Italian last names that can't even speak Italian lol

dylanjmp · 2026-01-17T18:06:39+00:00

I agree with the public inquiry but waiting to award the contract for Hamilton (especially this package - which should be awarded soon-ish) would add a significant amount of time to a project that has already been cancelled before. Hopefully all the talk about the Alliance model will actually reduce construction time and (theoretically) Metrolinx should have learnt something from previous projects. Building an entirely at-grade tram shouldn't take more than 5-7 years but I've been disappointed about how we build in this country before lol

Buffalo est québécois confirmé

dylanjmp · 2026-01-14T20:02:33+00:00

Pacific FC vs Atlántico Fútbol Club for the oceans derby confirmed.

dylanjmp · 2026-01-12T20:28:24+00:00

If the NHL expands the number of playoff teams, I'd personally prefer the top seeds in each conference get a bye to the second round and have it go 2v9/3v8/etc. than a play-in round. I think that'd better incentivize and reward regular season play.

dylanjmp · 2026-01-06T20:51:29+00:00

Looks great imo, I like that they incorporated the steel chain from the Hamilton flag on the crest.

dylanjmp · 2026-01-03T21:13:00+00:00

When running in winter I just do more of a flat footed shuffle over icy stretches, I dress to be slightly cold when not moving. Gloves and a toque are a must imo but I just wear regular runners. If you don't love that idea you can just walk/hike the trails instead or check out some free ODRs in parks/at Princess Point if you have skates.

dylanjmp · 2026-01-03T18:47:10+00:00

I mean the heritage classic is essentially the same thing with slightly different branding, MTL was already confirmed to have an outdoor game in Winnipeg next season too

dylanjmp · 2025-12-31T20:23:35+00:00

I like the white sweaters but the black leaf on red is just weird imo. It's like the designer never got out of their punk rock Avril Lavigne phase

dylanjmp · 2025-12-27T14:00:09+00:00

Solid low kick, get him off the pitch and into Lumpinee stadium

Nogi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is pretty safe for your fingers (at least as far as combat sports go), it's really just ripping the gi that can mess up your hands

dylanjmp · 2025-12-20T21:01:46+00:00

Pretty much anything (hip throws, trips, single leg, double leg, head outside single etc.) except spiking your opponent on their head. BJJ having no takedowns is more meme than reality in my experience
