You don't "make up for" this kind of shittiness, kid. You stop being shitty.

Could've been better if he had put this out first without hand holding from his father. *shrug*

His father wasn't holding his hand with that statement. That's Philly's PR team.

I would hope Danny laid into him that the kid needs to be a better man.

Also, here's a nice joke:

Mercyhurst replied to the original tweet last night at 9 PM:



Didn't make a public statement until 5 min ago:



What a joke of a response from Mercyhurst.

I agree and support the last sentence in their statement. I would still hope for discipline to be handed out.

Mint Mobile sold to T-Mobile today for $1.35B. Ryan Reynolds owns 1/4 of the company. Ryan Reynolds is also interested in buying the Ottawa Senators.

Coincidence? Possibly. But where is the fun in refusing to speculate?

The development group he found to help buy the team is based in Toronto (The Remington Group) has some pretty deep pockets too. I wonder who the "other bidders" are with all of this?

He needs the cash to finish the upgrades at Wrexham's stadium.

NHL GM meetings wrap: Rule changes, cap circumvention, Pride jerseys, expansion and other news and notes

Gary Bettman and execs from around the league weigh in on all the hottest discussion points at this week's GM meetings.

Salary-cap expectations​

The GMs left the meetings anticipating the salary-cap ceiling to increase from $82.5 million to $83.5 million, meaning debt owed to the owners after the recent pandemic is not yet settled.

Commissioner Gary Bettman indicated there’s still about $100 million left to be paid off.

“(By) our current projections, which are aggressive … there still will be an escrow,” Bettman said. “If we even exceed those projections, there’s a possibility that the escrow gets paid off and the cap goes up ($4.5 million). That’s a possibility. I think it’s more likely that we will still see an escrow balance.”

However, Bettman hinted that he’d be willing to discuss increasing the cap even without the debt being fully reimbursed with new NHLPA executive director Marty Walsh, who started Wednesday.

But that would come at a cost to the players.

“If we’re going to raise the cap and the escrow hasn’t been paid off, then we’re going to have to look at raising the escrow rates, which under the CBA extension in 2020 is locked in for the last three years of the CBA term at 6 percent,” Bettman said. “So if you’re going to raise the cap prematurely, then we’re going to have to look at the escrow percentage as well. The two are tied together.”
