The Oilers' penalty kill is currently unstoppable and makes opponents look incompetent

Their PK has been outstanding since... it's clipping like 94%. It's just unstoppable what they've done. Every other team's power play becomes really bad against the Oilers. For Florida, there's so much skill there, but they're standing still and Edmonton pressures. They're getting breakaways shorthanded, they're scoring shorthanded goals.

The Oilers' PK was historically good during the 2024 playoffs, though they did eventually lose Game 7.

The Boston Celtics championship parade was the biggest in NBA history

Biggest, biggest parade in NBA championship history. Is that a fact? 1.5 million people.

The 2019 Toronto Raptors parade reportedly had an estimated 2 million people, making the claim that the Celtics parade was definitively the 'biggest in history' likely incorrect.

If the Oilers win Game 7, it will be the most iconic moment in Stanley Cup Finals history

This would be, I think, the most iconic moment in Stanley Cup finals history. If they're able to pull [off the comeback].

Subjective opinion on historical ranking, but grounded in the rarity of a 3-0 comeback.

'Hawk Tua' will be the number one fantasy football team name for 2024

I think we can already say that's the number one fantasy football team name for 2024, right? Hawk Tua.

While impossible to verify every league, 'Hawk Tua' was undoubtedly one of the most ubiquitous pun names in 2024 fantasy football drafts.

Connor McDavid is playing the best hockey of his career in this Olympic tournament

I don't know if McDavid's ever been this good... It's incredible. Like I think he gave guys maybe six or seven grade A scoring chances. He had seven shots on his own. Then the Finnish coach today said, yeah, McDavid is the best player in this tournament by a mile.

McDavid's brilliance is widely acknowledged, though 'best ever' is always debatable.

Sidney Crosby's Olympic injury is likely an MCL sprain

He was trying to stabilize on his right leg and it just, it opened up, which to me speaks MCL sprain... I'm hoping it's not too bad and it's just a grade one, maybe two MCL sprain.

Crosby's injury status was a major storyline during the 2026 Olympics.

Team USA has a better defensive corps than Canada, but Canada has significantly better forwards

The D's better overall. I believe their forwards are significantly better than ours... Crosby being out, it's scary. And if he's out, that's a big difference... On D our D's better, their forwards are better.

A widely held scouting assessment of the two 2026 Olympic rosters.
