Thanks @DonTaylor5! Betts is sure representing my dad’s number in a big way!
"All while wearing the late, great Rick Klassen's old number 90.."
How big was the @BCLions win? So big that @DonTaylor5 had the highlights in our opening segment.
Catch up on that and the guys thoughts on the victory.

Crazy how similar Tkachuk’s OT winner was to Primeau’s 23 years! Quick shot to the exact spot — upstairs over the glove with no chance for Anderson #FLAvsCAR #StanleyCupPlayoffs

After the #Leafs finally got out of the first round, the odds makers had Toronto and Edmonton with the best odds to win the Cup. But like every year since 1993, the Canadian drought continues #StanleyCupPlayoffs

Fire @TheresaHansonAD and @drjoyjohnson
How can you have an AD @SFU that seemingly does not care about student athletes.
The swim team, womens soccer or football. AD Hanson has failed all 3 .
Chad Klassen retweeted
This is amusing. In many situations negotiations go down to the final moments & beyond. In 2014 the same AD gave UBC🏈 what amounted to an ultimatum to add significantly more 💰. They did. This time around we didn’t get the same courtesy of even a discussion. She just killed it

Chad your dad was part of the fabric of @SFUFootball during and long after his career. We’ll continue to fight for his program, and that of the current and future players. #SaveSFUfootball

This is @TheresaHansonAD's attempt to salt the earth. Truly brutal behaviour on the part of @SFU in the face of pending court action. This following yesterday's misleading public statement, green-lit by SFU President @drjoyjohnson. The whole institution looks awful. @sfufbalumni
Today, the @sfu_athletics department ordered the football locker room clean out. Gear has been separated and personal property has been tossed aside into garbage bags.
Chad Klassen retweeted
The players have been locked out of their locker room since Apr 4. They were NOT notified to come back and pick up their belongings. What is wrong with you @sfu_athletics?! How is this part if evaluating the program?

This is how SFU is treating the young athletes. My heart is breaking right now . Thrown away like trash
#SaveSFUFootball
The biggest decision in a child’s life after high school thrown away like the trash ! Is this how we treat our young people? Their mental state does SFU care ?
@sfufbalumni @FootballSFU @SFUFBBoosters @SFU @FarhanLaljiTSN @BCLions @Jim_MullinKGN
#SaveSFUFootball
URGENT: Hearing from SFU Football Student athletes right now that they’re having their personal items and belongings taken out of the locker rooms and stuffed in bags without further notice or consent. This is unacceptable! @TheresaHansonAD @drjoyjohnson #SaveSFUFootball

This is atrocious! This is just rubbing salt in the wound and points to how intentionally hurtful this decision was #SaveSFUFootball
Keep doing what you’re doing @SFU. This type of action is going to get even more people fired up at the injustices coming from this heartless “institute of higher learning.” Please read this thread👇🏽 #SaveSFUFootball
Weeks after the football program was wrongfully cancelled, I finally took some time to write a thoughtful response to SFU President Joy Johnson about the debacle on the hill #SaveSFUFootball

The Blazers meet @SeattleTbirds in a Western Conference Final rematch that will be fantastic. With both teams 8-0, it’s the first time since 2009 (Brandon vs. Calgary in East Final) that undefeated conference finalists meet #Kamloops nitter.gq/blazerhockey/status/16…

Just checked with @TheWHL and since 2006, the lowest goals-against in a series is two (Vancouver vs. Everett, 2006 Western Conference Final). The #Kamloops Blazers have a chance to tie or break that mark in Game 4 on Thursday. The Blazers lead the goal count 19-1.
Another strong showing by the team 🔥
We now have a 3-0 series lead, game 4 is Thursday night 🏒

Last week, I handed in my resignation at CFJC in #Kamloops, the hardest decision I've made in my life. I put my heart and soul into this job, and it makes walking away that much harder. Thank you to everyone was part of my journalism journey. My last day at CFJC is April 28.
With the Blazers losing in Seattle tonight and the Giants win, that locks down the #Kamloops #Vancouver 2 vs. 7 playoff match-up starting March 31 at the Sandman Centre. Rematch of the Western Conference semi-final last year.
