I love your "they ring the same bells for weddings and funerals" tag bc I work as a bell-ringer at one of the few churches in my city where you still have to ring the bell manually. and we do ring the same bell whether it's a wedding or a funeral! but ☝️ we also ring it if the local sports team wins at sports (the secret third thing that is neither a wedding nor a funeral)
the three universal human experiences: love, death, and sports

reminder for all hockey fans:
netflix is making a hockey show called "the sticks" that is based on a very real tragedy that occured in canada in 2018.
the show follows a minnesota high school team after their bus crashes and coming back to hockey afterwards.
in 2018, the humboldt broncos' (a junior A team made up of 18-22 year olds) bus was hit by a tractor trailer on a highway intersection. 16 people (10 players, 2 coaches, and 4 team staff members) were killed, along with 13 other players severely injured.
the memory of the humboldt broncos crash is an incredibly sensitive subject carrying a lot of trauma to both the survivors, their families, and deceased's families. the trajectory of hockey in canada was changed significantly after this tragedy.
despite this, netflix has decided to make a show using the death of young hockey players for profit. they did not consult the survivors, nor the deceased's families. they stole a canadian story for a feel-good cash grab.
i understand wanting to watch shows about hockey, but this is not the show to watch. do not give it attention, as the humboldt broncos' memories deserve to be theirs and theirs alone to share.

Just my initial thoughts from the Laila Edwards Teal Talk:
- Laila is super genuine and down to Earth. She’s generally very humble about her position and was unsure at first about her reception in San Jose. It seems to matter to her that San Jose is excited to have her which comes across super sweet.
- She is super excited about San Jose and California as a place to live! I know that no player is going to go on an interview and say San Jose sucks, but the story about telling her brother that she could live in San Jose always gets me.
- She’s also hilarious. Honestly great jokes bouncing off with Brodie. Most hockey player interviews are difficult watches for me, but she has a great personality and isn’t afraid to be sarcastic or throw in a joke.
- She has a good perspective on the pwhl and hockey as a whole. She values hockey and sports in general, but also has an understanding of her place in growing the game/the league. It seems like she is super receptive to it and excited to be part of the generation that pushes women’s hockey forward.
