that’s not a story you see every day
A 70-year-old man was rescued from a 30-foot-deep hole in Aiea Monday afternoon after suffering serious injuries. The Honolulu Fire Department responded to a home at 99-405 Waoala Place around 4:08 p.m. after receiving a report of a man trapped in a hole in his backyard. Firefi

Oh #Canucks, you can’t even beat the #Flyers. I’m concerned you’d lose to the #Blackhawks too.

In the halftime interview yesterday, #Elks defender told TSN interviewer second half was where his team shined and wore down their opponents. That’s exactly what they did vs #BCLions. #CFLplayoffs

A cannabis industry shocker — if you weren’t expecting it: Canada’s Organigram swoops in to buy Aurora Cannabis, upsetting Curaleaf’s plans. My favourite reporter reports for his favourite cannabis website. theounce.ca/features/aurora-…

My favourite reporter wonders if there’s still a counter-punch still to come from Curaleaf.
🇨🇦 Aurora staying Canadian. After spurning American cannabis giant Curaleaf, Aurora has chosen a Canadian partner in Organigram. A made-in-Canada cannabis deal. 🍁 #ICYMI theounce.ca/features/aurora-…

Good game awareness by #Canucks ’ Paul Cotter. He and Ducks’ Malott handed misconducts in 3rd period with Ducks well ahead. I’m sure they figured night was done, but Canucks came back to force OT and Cotter came back in OT to finish time in penalty box. Duck returned later.

#Canucks did video tribute to Quinn Hughes. Why? Did he help them win Stanley Cup or achieve playoff success? Did fans want to see it? No, he was good, true, but he wanted out. #NHL teams should stop these tributes except in exceptional circumstances. Mixed reaction from crowd.

Snowstar made a good counterargument to my post above, but as is the way in this forum, he had to throw in a “dickhead” insult. Can’t just leave it at a reasonable statement. What a dickhead.

I’m surprised Cole Palmer didn’t get a red card. #CHETOT

Now he got one - second yellow - that seems about right.

In soccer, they talk about goalies making themselves bigger to stop a shot. In hockey, goalies go on their knees when a shot comes and make themselves smaller. It doesn’t make sense.

Did Winnipeg Jets trade Connor Hellebuyck at the right time? He’s older now. Past his peak. #NHL

Oh man, do have to watch the #Canucks suck again? I guess I don’t, I could change the channel.

Let's frack the whole fracking province. “The Conservative Party of BC, under the leadership of Lorne Doerkson, have a clear plan to supercharge LNG development.” — Larry Neufeld, Conservative candidate for Peace River South. A little caution might be wise. #bcelection

If the BC Cons win Saturday's election, will we have to go back to changing our clocks twice a year?

That was a spirited game between #Senators and #Panthers. Sens deserved the 5-1 win. They were outstanding tonight. #NHL
