The Blackhawks are coming off two straight losses, but very different performances. After their first ugly loss of the season in Winnipeg, the Hawks battled in Edmonton and lost in overtime. They competed with the Oilers, and their speed was an issue at times. The Kraken present a different test. They’re trying to get back into the postseason and, entering Monday, are just ahead of the Blackhawks in the wild card race. The Kraken haven’t lost a home game in regulation — yet. Let’s see if ...

In four games since being acquired by the Chargers in a trade from the Ravens, pass rusher Odafe Oweh has racked up four sacks. That’s four more than he had in the first five games of the year for Baltimore prior to being dealt. He’s been used mainly as a rotational pass rusher but he’s […]

William Nylander returns to the lineup as the Maple Leafs hope to build on a strong effort in Philadelphia. It will be a stiff test against an 8-3-2 Penguins team that’s gotten particularly strong starts from Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Tristan Jarry/Arturs Silovs (7:30 p.m. EST, Amazon Prime). Game Day Quotes Erik Karlsson on […] The post Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Pittsburgh Penguins – Game #13 Projected Lines, Preview & TV Info appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
Reporting from Madison Square Garden, Shara Talia Taylor recaps the Knicks’ 128–116 win over the Chicago Bulls. After dropping three straight on the road—including Friday’s loss in Chicago—New York bounced back behind Jalen Brunson’s 31 points and OG Anunoby’s 21. Coach Mike Brown credited the team’s improved defense and rebounding, noting lessons learned from their […]
The Chicago Bears won a thriller against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9, which makes it so much easier for us to tackle the Cairo Santos situation without rage-typing so hard that I need a new keyboard. Santos made two field goals and five extra points in a 47-42 Bears victory in which every point mattered. And I’m thankful that he had those points. However, I can’t stop thinking about the two misses. Only one of the misses counted for the record book because a Bengals offside pena...
When the Buffalo Bills signed Jordan Poyer to the team’s practice squad at the end of August, Bills Mafia was divided. Many assumed the 34-year-old safety was brought back merely as a depth piece and mentor for second-year safety Cole Bishop and rookie defensive back Jordan Hancock. But I kept saying it was a great […]
After the San Francisco 49ers’ Week 9 win over the New York Giants, head coach Kyle Shanahan said, “We’re worried it’s an ACL” when referring to first-round pick Mykel Williams’ injury. Williams was well on his way to playing a season-high in snaps against the Giants. Even after injury, he ended up playing 50 percent […]
Was there ever any doubt? Temwa Chawinga has won the NWSL Golden Boot, again. After taking the league by storm in 2024 with 21 goals and five assists, she has followed it up 15 goals and three assists. The only other player to win the award multiple times? Sam Kerr from 2017-2019. The Malawi native […]
Matchroom Boxing’s efforts to establish a beachhead in Ghana, ostensibly to set up a future show headlined by Anthony Joshua, will officially kick off on December 20th when light heavyweights Craig Richards and Dan Azeez meet in Accra. Richards (19-4-1, 12 KO) scored an impressive knockout of then-unbeaten Shakan Pitters to set up major opportunities […]
The Seattle Kraken are the next opponent on the Blackhawks’ docket as they continue their lengthy jaunt away from the Windy City. Seattle has opened this season with 14 points in 11 games (5-4-2), leaving them towards the middle of the standings in the Pacific Division and the Western Conference overall. Seattle won its first two games but hasn’t quite piled up the victories since, losing their last two games and four of the last six, most recently a 3-2 overtime loss to the New York Rang...
Well, it’s safe to say that last week was a rather eventful one for Juventus. And not because they actually won a game or two after going nearly two months without claiming three points. It is because the winless run Juventus went on cost Igor Tudor his job as Juventus manager. That news came down […]
Drama drives engagement so at the very least the fuel for the narrative was burning brightly.
Bill Guerin didn’t want to blame Dean Evason when he fired him after a seven-game losing streak during the Minnesota Wild’s 5-10-4 start in 2023. "It had just gotten to that point where almost no matter what they did, the guys were having a hard time executing and generating offense," Guerin s...
Important insofar as these are relatively big names on the free agent market and impactful arms now available, but less so insofar as none of this is a surprise: top-tier closers Robert Suarez and Edwin Diaz have opted out of their contracts with the Padres and Mets, respectively. Suarez, 34, had two years and $16 million remaining on his deal with the Padres, so it’s not at all a surprise that he’s opting out. He will be able to blow away that guarantee in free agency, and the Average An...
The St. Louis Blues haven’t won a game since October 18th. They are 0-5-2 in their last seven games and 3-7-2 all season. They’ve been outscored 50-34. They rank last in goals against at 4.17/game and they’ve allowed a league-high 34 goals 5×5. Their defensive game and goaltending are in shambles. They are 0-7-1 when…
Welcome to the Week in Review: a Monday feature that looks back at the week that was for the San Antonio Spurs, takes a look at the week ahead, and more. Enjoy! Week 1: Despite being shorthanded, the Spurs opened the season 3-0 for the first time since 2019, winning games on the back of their […]
Noah Fifita is on the cusp of Arizona history, needing only a few more touchdown passes to become the career leader. He’s also just done something no Wildcat had in eight years. The redshirt junior quarterback has earned Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week recognition for the second time this season after his performance […]
How Acquired Owen Carey was selected in the 15th round of the 2024 MLB Draft. He was the overall 461st pick of the draft. What Were Expectations? There were some solid expectations for Owen as the Braves were able to agree to terms with him and sign him for $150K following the draft. Any time […]
The Colorado Rockies’ confusing search for a new head of baseball operations took several new turns on Monday. In the morning, Brittany Ghiroli of The Athletic reported that Amiel Sawdaye of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Matt Forman of the Cleveland Guardians—two of the team’s only known candidates and finalists—were no longer in the running for […]
The Cleveland Browns opened as 1.5-point underdogs against the New York Jets ahead of their Week 10 match-up, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. The over/under on the game is 36.5. The Browns (2-6) are coming off of their bye week, but before that, they were dismantled by the New England Patriots. Cleveland has been having the […]
The National Baseball Hall of Fame has released the eight nominees for the Contemporary Baseball Era Ballot for potential induction in 2026, defined as players whose primary contributions were after 1980. The candidates up for consideration are Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Carlos Delgado, Jeff Kent, Don Mattingly, Dale Murphy, Gary Sheffield, and Fernando Valenzuela. Candidates […]
Erling Haaland bagged another brace as Manchester City ended Bournemouth’s eight game unbeaten streak at the Etihad Stadium. The Norwegian’s two first half goals, both assisted by Rayan Cherki, either side of a Tyler Adams equaliser contributed to an enthralling first half, where both teams played entertaining, attack minded football. The second period was cagier, […]
Man oh man… What Went Wrong Passing Offense I don’t really know what to say at this point. We are now 9 games into a 12 game season… the diagnosis simply cannot be “they’re not on the same page” anymore. We’re well beyond that expiration date with the communication, or lack thereof, between the quarterback […]
