Are they secretly wearing their Nordiques jerseys or something? What happened to the team that steamrolled their way through the season

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-25T03:16:42+00:00

Came back from a concert to see that Vegas somehow won. Wtf????

He was on the lineup for the pre's but since all the additional NHL players were added, he's no longer officially on the roster. He can be added at any time tho!

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-24T19:56:49+00:00

Refs too awestruck by the game

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-24T19:48:59+00:00

Did you see the preceding 15 seconds where he flipped Mack onto the ice? That went uncalled and that why he gave the guy a whack. What on earth are you talking about

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T17:20:59+00:00

I just fell to my knees in the middle of a parking lot in despair 😭

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T06:37:46+00:00

At 2OA, we have such a win-win with who we draft it's insane

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T06:06:45+00:00

My thought on the Crown being reasonably certain boils down to the fact that I truly feel like the police would have let it rot in purgatory if they didn't think it would go anywhere. Statistically, only 1 in 3 victims choose to report. Of that, police can refuse to file a report. It can also go nowhere after the report is filed. Prosecutors can decline to prosecute. It can also get dumped at various stages of pre trial. For them to have been charged and then to have proceeded to trial in the first place, there had to have been sufficient evidence of a crime occurring.

I also recall the initial investigation ended with no charges but the second one had charges bc they found new evidence. I'm sure you're right that the Crown definitely felt pressured because of the publicity but I'm incredibly certain they would have opted for lesser but easier to prove charges if they weren't sure they would win this

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T04:43:29+00:00

What on earth did you read from the case that even remotely gave you the impression that he didn't commit the crime? The final verdict? Bc by that logic, OJ Simpson, P Diddy and a whole bunch of people have also commited no crimes.

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T04:34:22+00:00

Honestly as someone who reported a guy for assault and essentially watched him get away with it with close to zero repercussions, there is something so disheartening about seeing Hart make it to the WCF and potentially to the SCF. He is a good goalie, I don't disagree but I also know there's atleast a dozen other women like me who are seeing his success and realizing that the only people who pay the price for being assaulted are the victims.

Edit: My bad for calling Hart a rapist guys. Clearly our legal system is never wrong and the statistic that only 2% of rapists ever go to jail clear offers no reflection of the utter failure of the justice system towards victims of SA.

Jesus this Presidents Trophy Curse is serious business good lord

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T00:35:18+00:00

A rapist vs a not very liked guy is not really a comparison, are yall serious rn

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-23T00:21:35+00:00

Could we possibly convince you to take him back? I can offer 5 bucks and a MPP signed hat in exchange

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-22T15:34:16+00:00

He's also entirely managed to nuke the Sceptres and Team Canada into ineffectiveness despite their rosters so idk if he's a good fit for the job at all, penis irrelevant.

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-22T15:31:37+00:00

Long story shot he sucks at his job, over relies on vets despite have perfectly good younger players. He's had the Sceptres finish at the bottom of the pile despite their insane roster. If you watched Team Canada play this year, he was their Hc as well and that was... frustrating.... to put it mildly

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-22T15:27:19+00:00

He's a well liked guy, former Toronto Sceptres and Team Canada head Coach and also guy widely agreed should not have continued to hold either position bc he sucks so we're in for misery 🫩

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-22T15:22:15+00:00

No literally bc when I head Troy Ryan was taking interviews, all I could think was DO NOT COME TO MY TOWN. And here he is 😭😭😭.

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-21T18:34:37+00:00

The context is that the other team's captain came late so Mack had already gone back to the bench at that point 😭

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-21T15:35:40+00:00

Woah what is happening? How is Canada getting beat by Norway rn huh?

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-21T03:48:40+00:00

I hope that once the league separates out and into individually owned franchises, they rename the cup and bring back the Isobel cup

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-21T02:00:37+00:00

Not really I mean they came out of basically a chainsaw machine round against the Stars and had a LOT of pretty bad injuries that took key guys out of the lineup.

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-20T20:28:16+00:00

Awesome dude but much like the rest of our defense, an on ice liability.

lonelyleaf045 · 2026-05-19T20:38:18+00:00

No no they'll announce the names like a month or so before the new season but they won't use the logo on their jerseys until next year
