Excellent story. Future star in the NHL in Zayne Parekh 🔥
"I thought we saw a different Zayne at the end of the season." @sportsnetkyle sat down with Zayne Parekh to discuss the ups and downs of his rookie season, his growth as a player, and more! Full feature: youtube.com/watch?v=GGt-EI54…

Canada has some catching up to do, but the future is promising for us. Norway's national athletics program is a model we are learning from. Great piece from @donnovanbennett @cbcsports youtu.be/z3bWH-1QJKc?si=y9jS…

Agreed. A dollar of cap space is worth the same in every market. Florida's tax break belongs to the player, not the team. What surprises me is how nobody talks about the RCA. Canadian teams can put part of a player's salary into a Retirement Compensation Arrangement. Once he retires outside Canada, he withdraws it at roughly 25%. Net result: the same tax as "no tax" Florida, sometimes less. And far less than New York, Massachusetts or California. But sure, keep calling Canada a tax nightmare. #WeAreGoldStar!
The flaw in equating Kucherov’s Florida after-tax earnings to a $20M Montreal salary is that it treats Florida’s tax advantage as justification for Tampa paying him less. That tax advantage is a player benefit and not a discount Tampa is entitled to capture.

Everyone is always rooting for you. Your parents want you to be a great son. Wife wants you to be a great husband. Your boss wants you to be a slam dunk hire. Every first date you’ve ever been on they’ve been rooting for you to get laid. Every time you started to tell a joke people hoped it would have a hilarious punch line. Your proximity to anyone is a reflection of themself, meaning the deck is never stacked against you, and your failures are completely your own
What’s the harshest truth every young man must eventually learn?

Amon-Ra St. Brown on something that’s underrated about Jared Goff: "Half the time I don't even know he's getting hit when he's throwing it ... and I realize the next day watching tape that he got blasted. He's as tough as they come." (h/t @971theticketxyt)
