NHL trade deadline: Everything to know about the buyers

14 days ago The Toronto Star

They may wish to leave some cap space buffer room for potential earned performance bonuses so they can avoid a carry-over cap hit for next year. PuckPedia’s Cap Take: With just Gardiner and Kase on LTIR, Carolina has $3.1 million of cap space available in LTIR. Their recovery timelines, and Stone’s injury situation, gives Vegas a huge range of potential cap space scenarios at the deadline. With $3.8 million in projected cap space, they can fit $8.6 million in annual cap hit today or a whopping $17 million if they wait until the trade deadline. PuckPedia’s Cap Take: LA is currently a non-LTIR team that is almost completely out of space, with just $63,000 in projected cap space.

UN ready to vote on sanctions against Haitian gang leader

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.N. Security Council planned to vote Friday on a resolution that would demand an immediate end to violence and criminal activity in Haiti and impose sanctions on a powerful gang leader. Also dropped was mention of an Oct. 8 letter from U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres outlining options to help Haiti’s National Police combat high levels of gang violence. A second resolution, which was still being worked on late Thursday, would address the issue of combating Haiti’s violence. The sanctions resolution being put to a vote Friday named only a single Haitian — Jimmy “Barbecue” Cherizier, whose gang has blocked a key fuel terminal leading to severe shortages. The resolution, however, would also establish a Security Council committee to impose sanctions on other Haitian individuals and groups whose actions threaten the peace, security or stability of the Western Hemisphere’s poorest nation.

Qatar World Cup scouting report: Canada deserved win over Japan

Beating a team ranked 24th in the world just days before they make their return to the World Cup stage is more than Herdman could have asked for from a last-minute tune-up. Herdman’s players were sharp and industrious and ambitious and all of the things they rarely had been against Bahrain. Within 10 minutes in Dubai, Japan provided a final reminder of the same. And no player wants to overcommit in the largely inconsequential final minutes before the World Cup actually starts. Japan struck Borjan’s near post late on, but Canada had earned some luck, if you believe in such things.

Laurentian University’s plan to fix its financial crisis was ‘unsuitable and damaging,’ auditor finds

“One has to question whether paying more than $30 million and counting for external legal and financial advisers would not have been better spent on educating students,” wrote Bonnie Lysyk in the report released Thursday. The move saw the school axe dozens of programs, impacting 932 students and their degree programs, and led to the loss of 341 faculty and staff positions. It sent shock waves throughout the post-secondary sector, as well as Sudbury and northern Ontario, said area New Democrat MPP Jamie West. “We are committed to beginning the university’s next chapter on a solid financial footing and ushering in a new era of accountability,” Bangs added. “The students, staff and faculty of Laurentian deserve nothing less.”SHARE:

Young Waiter Young Chef competition at Don Alfonso 1890

At an event held earlier this week atop Don Alfonso 1890 — 38 storeys high — I ran into its executive chef, Daniele Corona. Also, clearly feeling it: the man behind the restaurant, Nick Di Donato. And why we had gathered midday (since Don Alfonso is not typically open for lunch)? To take in the inaugural Canadian round of the Young Chef Young Waiter competition. Alas, our assigned chef here lost points when our entire table decided that, as flavourful as the dish was, the temperature was off.

In his ‘Double Murder’ double dance bill, Hofesh Shechter balances bleakness with hope

Now, for his company’s third Toronto visit, Shechter is offering a glimmer of hope in a double bill that contrasts his darkest visions with a gentler portrayal of humanity and its potential for healing. The first part of the evening is a work called “Clowns” that Shechter made in 2016 for Nederlands Dans Theater in The Hague. On its past visits in 2012 and 2018, the London-based Hofesh Shechter Company has appeared at the almost 900-seat Bluma Appel Theatre. This visit it’s settling into the much more intimate 450-seat Fleck Dance Theatre as the first offering in Harbourfront Centre’s 2022/23 “Torque” season of international contemporary dance. I’m sure it’s going to be very moving for audiences.”Shechter is happy that Toronto audiences will see “Double Murder” in an intimate environment.

Border issues top the agenda on U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s first visit to Canada

Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly showcased Thursday two countries in lockstep on the pressing global issues of the day, but still stumbling when it comes to addressing issues at the Canada-U.S. border. But while the deepening of efforts to work together on global issues was clear, how two pressing domestic irritants will get solved was less obvious. So while the U.S. is listening to Canada’s concerns about the border, Blinken said, it has to be seen in a more global context. That’s led to lengthy backlogs in applications and criticism that economic travel is being delayed as a result. “We both feel strongly that the most powerful bond we have is in the ability of Canadians and Americans alike to move back and forth to our respective countries,” Blinken said.
