she is queen. she is mother. she is a saint for raising 2 of the leagues biggest shit disturbers. mama tkachuk is a classy lady she gets to sip from the cup like it’s a martini.
"professional athletes see what you say about them online" ok so why hasn't there been a single professional athlete guest starring on rupaul's drag race yet
tonight we will witness 32 boys being sold (drafted) to one direction (nhl teams). happy boy auction day to all who celebrate and may the odds be ever in your favour *whistles first 5 notes of the hockey night in canada theme song*.

What’s lesser known is his love for another man and the struggles he endured in the early 20th century.

Quinn Hughes is like a very temperamental house plant. like no matter how well you take care of it it’s just always struggling to exist. like a slightly over watered succulent.
Jon Cooper opened his end of season media availability by apologizing for the "emotional, quite frankly dumb words that came out of my mouth the other night. For that, I'm sorry."
Coopper said, "As you know, it was a pretty disappointing series loss the other night. I made an
