This is so, so lovely. The Canucks do Diwali well for their community
Ten years of Diwali Night, and the heart of it has always been giving back. 🪔 Head Coach Manny Malhotra stopped by Guru Nanak Free Kitchen to help prepare and hand out meals. Today, we celebrate over $100K donated by @Canucksforkids.

No better combination than books and Boone! Nearly 700 students from @FriendshipPCS took home free books during today's Scholastic Book Fair, made possible by a $15k donation from @MSEFndn as part of Caps in School presented by @KPMGThrive #ALLCAPS

"You come into the league at 18 years old, and before we even met, we were built up against each other... over the years, obviously, have developed a friendship with him. Have a ton of respect for him." Sid on Ovi 🤝

Reminder that Tarik El-Bashir has covered Ovechkin his *entire* NHL career so if you’re not already following him Ovi’s last season is a good time to start
All-time NHL leading goal scorer and #ALLCAPS captain Alex Ovechkin announced after practice today that this, his 22nd season in the NHL, will be his last. The Capitals host Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins in Washington’s home opener on Wednesday. Ovechkin, 41, has 929 career goals—35 more than second place Wayne Gretzky and 275 more than Crosby, who is next on the list among active players.

and when you add the fact that she is pursuing medicine specifically to further research into female sports medicine and female athlete injuries and recovery, so she is only retiring to make a much bigger contribution to womens hockey in the long run how can you not say GOAT 🐐
heartbroken but honestly winning an olympic gold medal and the league's cup as a side quest while pursuing a career in medicine is so fucking goated i can't even be sad i'm too amazed by what a woman she is

Women who watch hockey: we would actually just love it if games started on time and if you didn’t need 10 subscriptions to watch your team on TV The NHL: best we can do is weird AI fanfiction about Jack Eichel

An orange jersey *and* it’s beadwork, an Indigenous art form. I hope that when people see this they’ll be prompted to learn more about the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
Gavin McKenna sporting the little orange jersey for National Day for Truth and Reconciliation McKenna is a member of the Trʼondëk Hwëchʼin First Nation and became the first known Indigenous player selected first overall in nearly 50 years 🧡 📸: @MapleLeafs #leafs

German has been surprisingly useful in my life. I once negotiated a time for my downstairs neighbor in Syria to come to the roof -only accessible through my apartment - to install a satellite dish. It was my first week in Damascus & my Arabic was terrible but we both knew German
