Big misses everywhere we look as of late. Quebec police are way off the mark with their investigation into the Pacioretty saga—police belong in discussion of hockey like I belong in a physics C35 exam.  Where the hell would they begin to start? Since the days of Mr. Hockey and the Original 6, things have happened on the ice which would instantly be deemed criminal on the street. What separates a two minute interference penalty from attempted murder? Slashing from assault with a weapon? Are the French not committing crimes anymore?…

The university is just as removed from matters of squash around UTSC campus, but they’re on the path to redemption. I doubt they’ll get anything solid in place before the Pan Am Games though, without a city full of taxpayers to fund a couple of squash courts. The new building is now too far ahead to accommodate any sort of squash and with the direction our school is going, the old courts will probably be full of caffeinated, headphoned, spikey-haired study freaks before long…

Sorry to burst your bubble Leafs fans, but anything less than points in the middle of March is not going to get you into the playoffs. Since the lockout, the lowest point total to get into the playoffs—91. The Buds would have to win all but three remaining games to touch that…

Milos Raonic is not nearly as comical as his namesake on Seinfeld. In fact, he may already be the greatest Canadian singles player of all time, and he looks undeterred by it. Wait until puberty hits, and then we’ll see if his play falters…

If Air Canada pulls out of the NHL, who is going to fly Jonas Gustavsson to his next heart specialist?  Has no one taken notice of the Monster’s bad ticker down in the Marlies? Seems like by now he’s just piling on a lot of games in the wrong league just to earn the $1.5 mil they handed him. Play him as Reimer’s backup, or let the poor sap rest…

Reimer must have forgotten his pads in Winnipeg, he’s a little sluggish to his feet after every shot…

In the spring of 1987, The Tragically Hip played a show at UTSC, and it sold out. 24 years later, Gord Downie would be proud to know that UTSC’s Day with the Marlies sold out as well. They don’t keep records of these things, but it must have been the first UTSC sports event to sell out, ever. Though 13,000 people have found the time for the “UToronto” remix—including myself…

There’s proof that white people can’t dance. YouTube “UToronto Black and Yellow remix” and find out for yourself. But 13,000 views at a school of 10,000 students ain’t too shabby…

Daniel Carcillo should probably keep an eye out for Mike Komisarek in the future. Once the police investigate the Mar. 10 hit, and Komisarek spends a few nights behind iron, he’ll have “hit” more than a few scraggly haired bitches from behind…
