MLP’s first overall pick in 2022
Habs fan since 1985
Do small efforts by households - installing CFL bulbs & using appliances w/full loads, e.g. - make a measurable difference?
Industrial & commercial sectors certainly have their roles to play, but many “green” products are marketed toward people (and their property).
The city’s high-level municipal bureaucrats always seem unable to apply common sense in a timely manner.
God save Bytowne.
Taylor Swift does not produce songs that she expects will please every single music critic.
She produces songs that she believes will connect, engage and ultimately activate her massive fanbase… and perhaps other music lovers - casual or otherwise.
(Miss Swift ain’t doing it for money, either.)
Every coach wants to play at a certain moment and show what s/he is telling the team, right?
(rIgHt ?!?)
When the first exhibition game is played in late September/early October, I wonder what will have been more active for the Habs… the lead-up to the 2024 trade deadline or the off-season.
Fun read as always, Lori.
Enjoy tomorrow’s game.
Got 5.
I guess that’s OK.
With this league and its constant bumbling… we’ll know when the next dangerous hit occurs.
Maybe.
Anyway, Gallagher: Do better.
Bettman: Step aside.
My POV: hit draws 4.
• Left his feet
• Review immediately done
• No previous suspension
The Islander injury might tip the scales.
As for Gally, the entire set of circumstances was Shaw-esque.
• Late in the game
• Habs have a lead
• (Seemingly) no fuse previously lit
• Haphazard officiating
Ugh.
The Price is Right at Night is starting to lose its lustre.
I can’t quite put my finger on it, but the PM version seems to be relinquishing the pizzazz you’ll experience during the entire AM show.
Are CBS executives truly willing to dim some of TPIR’s big lights to deliver primetime ratings?
🤷♂️
Aggressive patience…
Not just MSL’s philosophy.
Applies to fans who watched the last 2 Habs games.
I expect a notable change before the Sens rematch Tuesday.
Should I start writing a weekly recap of Habs games et al?
Or an occasional podcast focused on the Canadiens & Senators? (Yes, I have a great title in mind.)
What about a brief reaction piece to a potent sports quote - recent or otherwise?
Just wondering.
Bluesky: come for the civil discourse… stay for the lack of faux retail intercourse.
Some circulating gripe about NHL all-⭐️ selection process: 1 per club then fans choose other 12 guys.
If you don’t recognize a player, that does not always mean the player is not worthy of an all-⭐️ nod.
Read ⬆️ again.
Still mad?
a) Vote
b) Skip the Feb 1-3 events
c) Take up pickleball
Fill in the blank challenge:
Watching the Habs with a late-game lead is ______________.
(Will share my answer after Thursday’s match vs. Buffalo.)
Anyone in the virtual hockey world know why the Senators do not have a team app?
Ottawa -> home of some tech wizardry.
Club -> first season = 1992
Other NHL franchises have operational ones
Typical 613 sitch: simple stuff gets shelved, complex stuff gets committeed to death.
What level has been reached?
(Restarted the game Saturday morning. At level 253.)
We did that last week. “Fresh” air was really “moist” / stale” air. This neighbourhood should not have been built upon a small marsh.
COVID + … confirmed w/at-home test.
Significant ice/snow storm starts the following day.
Ton of math homework returns from elementary school.
Should I bet on at least 1 piece of horrible mail in the super box?
Friday is 3 days away.
If most are new (less than 3 hours old) headlines, 👍.
If not, I would pick an off-beat time earlier than 8am Eastern. TBS made some hay with programs at the 5-after mark… so, 7:05? 6:35? Incorporate that in the post’s title. “Globe’s 5 at 6:35.” Or something MUCH wittier.
Just thoughts from 1 brain.
Taking a week-long break from #GoHabsGo coverage.
Déjà vù is (usually) not fun for me.
Cheers.
Oh, and @lori10habs.bsky.social writes good.
Some McIntyres are among the best humans in history.
Support them.
As of Saturday, nearly $200,000 had been donated to RIP Medical Debt in Casey McIntyre’s memory, which would wipe out approximately $20 million of unpaid medical bills.
She vowed to clear strangers’ medical debt in a posthumous viral post
Since her diagnosis in 2019, Casey McIntyre befriended dozens of other cancer patients who, unlike her, had piles of medical debt as they underwent treatment.

My soccer coaching record stands at 2-2.
Looking to go back above .500 tomorrow afternoon.
Considering our starting lineup as the 67s hold a late lead over Oshawa.
Sports.
Friday nights’ best companion.
Winning $1000 spinning the wheel on “The Price is Right” may be the best 30 seconds you’ll ever experience.
Change my mind.
To the people who share game cards for the #Habs…
Take the night off.
We have seen enough until Tuesday.
Any sports card collectors in my midst?
I have tons of hockey, some baseball and basketball, but 0 football/soccer.
Mainly looking for help to find confident price sources.
Won’t shy away from subject conversation or sharing.
November 1st.
2 months left in 2023.
Barring epic progress and resolution, this year will be known as “Another Shitty 365 Days for Planet Earth.”
The man directly responsible for Maine massacre - dead by his own hands.
The people indirectly responsible remain at their posts. Holding steady. Keeping the same thoughts patterns. Preparing to change zero in the near future.
The next mass shooting is soon. And no one will care after a few days.
Hi, Lori.
I respect your suggestion for each Habs G.
You tacked on a draft pick for the Primeau proposal. I suspect more may be needed for the other 2 scenarios. Does Armia, for instances, fit in either case?
Family business up for an award tonight. Last time I wore a suit was pre-COVID. Asked for a ban on photography at the event. No word yet from organizers.
