2nd day of the Memorial Cup happened yesterday, and it was exciting as hell.

Everett Silvertips beat Chicoutimi Sangueneens, but it wasn’t easy. Lots of energy, big hits, and highlight reel goals.

This was Everett’s first win ever at the Memorial Cup.

I am endlessly fascinated by Great Britain at the IIHF Men’s Hockey Championships because they’re truly the worst team in the tournament.

After six games, they’ve only scored four goals!

And they were just blanked 6-0 by Latvia, who aren’t exactly a powerhouse themselves. But compared to Great Britain, they’re practically Canada.

The British should be embarrassed but I doubt most Brits even realize this is happening.

Norway just pulled off a shocking upset by beating Sweden at the IIHF Men’s World Championships.

People were clowning on Canada for beating Norway in overtime—and that this was a sign Canada’s in long term decline.

But look at this. Norway beat Sweden in regulation. So really, Norway’s overtime loss to Canada is just a sign that they now have a serious #hockey team.

Norway 3-2 Sweden

Look what I found inside Save-On-Foods!

A big tall can of Montréal Victoire non-alcoholic Irish Red beer.

Would I have preferred Vancouver Goldeneyes beer? Sure.

But I also don’t mind celebrating the first Canadian Walter Cup champions ever—and enjoying sobriety in the process.

Just want to point out that if Canada ever lost to Latvia in any #hockey tournament, people would be calling for the coach’s head.

This is no slight to Latvia.

But if you’re Canada, the expectation is that you win every game even if it’s the B or C squad.

If you lose *at all*, it will be to USA, Czechia, Sweden, Finland, or Switzerland. Maybe an upset from Germany would be tolerated. Maybe.

But you definitely can’t lose to the likes of Norway, Slovakia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, or Great Britain. If Canada loses to those teams, that’s a national crisis.

How does USA win the Olympic gold medal in men’s #hockey and then lose to Latvia in the IIHF Men’s World Championship—both in the same year?!

Eventful opening day for the Memorial Cup.

Kitchener Rangers absolutely vanquished the Kelowna Rockets.

Kitchener Rockets 5-0 Kelowna Rockets.

#CHL #hockey


USA has only won one game in the IIHF Men’s World Championship.

And yet they can plausibly still make it out of Group A stage because they have more points than Germany, Hungary, Latvia, and Great Britain.

This must be really suck for Norway because they just played the game of their lives at the IIHF Men’s World Championships—and almost beat Canada.

But Canada being Canada never lets up. And beats them 6-5 in overtime.

Many people tell me they profoundly dislike Britta Curl-Salemme.

At first, I thought it was because she’s a dirty player. Which she is.

But apparently, she’s also quite anti-LGBTQ+. Which is a hell of a stance to have when a good many #PWHL fans are LGBTQ+.

Until tonight, no Canadian pro #hockey team has won a major championship in 33 years. Last time, it was 1993 when the Montréal Canadians won the Stanley Cup.

But tonight, the Montréal Victoire broke the curse by hoisting the Walter Cup!

I’m so glad it was these women who did it. And how fitting it was a Montréal team too!

Well, that’s wild!

Short-handed goal from Abby Roque which gets Marie-Philip Poulin out of the penalty box! Jail break!

Less than 10 minutes left! Can Ottawa actually pull a rabbit out of a hat like they did last time? Or are they cooked?!

End of 2nd period.

Game is way more interesting as Ottawa Charge pours on the pressure and just doesn’t let up. Montréal Victoire goalie Ann Renée Desbiens has been a wall. But will she break?

GOOOOOAL!

Montréal Victoire opens up the scoring Abby Roque finding the back of the net. Scored at 4:32 of the 2nd period.

And now Ottawa Charge can’t play so conservatively and needs to take more chances.

Scoreless 1st period.

Neither team is getting shots off, and the shots they do get off are from the back end—so tend to be low quality. Very defensive right now, and I don’t blame them since it’s coming down to the wire.

I’ve locked Ottawa’s chances, though.

Game 4 of the #PWHL Finals is happening now!

Montréal Victoire is leading the series 2-1 and are one game away from winning the Walter Cup Finals.

But every game has been close, and Ottawa Charge staved off elimination on Monday. They are a gritty team that never quits.

And I’m doing a live thread today!

That’s the game! Ottawa Charge wins! They fight another day!

Montréal Victoire fans, keep your chin up. This wouldn’t have been a good day to win the Walter Cup anyway since the Canadiens are playing a Game 7 right now. Your team deserves the main stage and doesn’t deserve to be upstaged anyway.

Charge are down by the centre ice, saluting fans. They deserved this win. Every goal was earned.

This has been an epic Walter Cup!

Ottawa just scored with 54.8 seconds left in the third period! Almost gets disallowed by officials but it sticks!

Rebecca Leslie gets it in past Montreal Victoire goalie Ann-Renée Desbiens.

Might they actually win this game?!

When I first started talking about #PWHL three years ago, few people gave a damn about pro women’s #hockey.

And now we’ve made a bustling community on the #Fediverse, full of people rooting on the Walter Cup Finals.

However this game goes, remember that.

The shots Gwyneth Philip’s faced were wild. As far as I’m concerned, she’s a goalie goddess.

Pro female #hockey goalies must be better than male counterparts.

For example, Ottawa Charge goalie Gwyneth Philips has a .955 save percentage.

That’s ungodly performance.

Got myself set up on the porch for Game 3 of the Walter Cup Finals.

iPad, Diet Dad’s Root Beer, and almonds.

Montréal Victoire vs. Ottawa Charge is coming up. If Victoire win, they take the series and thus the Cup. If Charge win, they play another day. So far, it’s been close!

#PWHL #hockey #HNOM



Kenzie Lalonde has been such a great play-by-play woman for these #PWHL playoffs.

When the PWHL first came on scene, things were too button up and academic. But Kenzie brings a lot of excitement and energy, making each #hockey game a must see.

Definitely makes the Walter Cup a premium event!

Why is Great Britain even playing in the 2026 Men’s World Ice #Hockey Championships?

They’re ranked #17 in the world. They’re worse than France and Slovenia.

So of course they’re going to get absolutely wrecked against USA, ranked 1st in the world.
