Can't get numb to this: The United States is stuck in a (trade) war it started, chooses not to end, and may further escalate to no avail, having dismantled its diplomatic apparatus, inflated prices, and destroyed its credibility. A historic strategic mistake harming millions in many different ways.

Wonderful idea Danielle, I bet Carney hasn't been trying for this for a year and a half now. It's great to say what you want, but how do you get there when the Trump administration keeps slapping us with tariffs, telling us they don't want our stuff, and says we should be the 51st State.

Who are the liars? They complain about the auto tariffs which are identical to the American auto tariffs Trump put on Canada. The high dairy tariffs kick in at a threshold that has never been reached. They are desperate folks. Stay strong and keep the boycotts going.

Trump wants free trade except not for steel, aluminum, forest products, autos, pharmaceutical products or with any country that the US has a trade deficit with (including penguin colonies), or any country with a leader that rubbed Trump the wrong way but how dare Canada protect our dairy industry.

To those Canadians (Conservatives especially) who are so eager to point out Carney's failure to get a trade deal with the US, can you please tell me what you are willing to give up to get a deal done? Supply management? The entire auto sector? Sovereignty? I ask because these are Trump's demands.

Canadians, it's time to double (or triple) down on boycotting American products and travel. Just don't buy American stuff if at all possible. There is plenty of great stuff from countries whose leaders don't treat us like crap.

Canada gets threatened with tariffs because forest fire smoke is likely to disrupt his weekend rounds of golf in Bedminster NJ. Meanwhile China/Russia rigging American elections apparently doesn't rise to the level of needing to threaten tariffs.

Complaining and blaming is much easier than governing and developing solutions. Too many politicians are only capable of former and not the latter. Please don't vote for them and we'll all be better off.

Oh well. There goes the dream of a Canada-Cabo Verde World Cup final.

Someone should offer sheet Zegras 1x$9.5M. It would cost a 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks. If Philly matches it walks him to UFA next summer and you can sign him then. If they don't match you get Zegras and can extend him in January. If you can't re-sign him you recoup the picks at trade deadline.

I'm trying to think of the best option for Anaheim. Accepting the four firsts I think is the worst. They are probably going to be mid-late firsts so not that valuable.

Well, it isn't getting any better for the Ducks.

I am pretty sure that Ovechkin won't provide $9.5M value to the Washington Capitals hockey team. However I'm sure he provides $9.5M in value to the Washington Capitals the business.

Blake Coleman, traded to the Wild, is a very good two-way winger. He is a good puck possession player, defends well, good on PK, can provide secondary scoring, works hard, is a good skater and leader with plenty of experience. www.thestanleycap.com/players/blak...

Vincent Trocheck, traded to Utah, is a good two-way center that does most things average to above average and is very good on faceoffs and can handle tougher matchups. Ideal second line center, who will trend to a 3rd line center as he ages. www.thestanleycap.com/players/vinc...

Vincent Desharnais is a big defenseman who can defend but provides no offense at all. $4.2Mx4 is an expensive contract but he'll have to battle the Tkachuk's and friends in the playoffs. www.thestanleycap.com/players/vinc...
