The Philadelphia Flyers have somewhat hung around all season, but they weren't exactly projected to be a contender this season anyways.

They have some solid core pieces, a generally younger to middle-aged group of talent, and some prospects. They are on the rise, even if it takes until next season or the one after for it to reall...

The Washington Nationals are highly unlikely to make the playoffs in 2026. Paul Toboni knows that and so do Nationals fans. Even finishing above .500 feels like a pipe dream. However, that does not mean the Nats season is destined for failure. We are just going to have to look at things beyond the win/loss […]
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is a right-handed hitting first baseman who turns 27 in March. And, yeah, we really don’t need a ‘better know’ for him.

Eagles Question of the Day: Is the Brandon Graham strip-sack on Tom Brady underrated? I feel like the Philly Special play gets all the attention … and it was obviously really awesome. But it doesn’t even really matter if the strip-sack doesn’t happen. Which is the bigger play from Super Bowl LII? Head over to […]
A second-year quarterback leading an unheralded and slept-on team to the No. 2 playoff seed in the AFC, and then, finally, the Super Bowl, where it will face off against a the heavy favorite with the Lombardi Trophy in sight.

The Seattle Kraken are in an interesting spot. They are fighting for a spot in the playoffs, but have been in and out of the race at multiple points this season. They traded Mason Marchment, have dealt with injuries, and have some good young players on the team and on their way. But they aren't good enough to win a Stanley Cup and not bad enough to get a top-5 pick to potentially really change their franchise. Matty Beniers and Shane Wright were supposed to be the players to do that, drafted s...
Hammarby is apparently keen to acquire the winger.

Just because the games aren’t being played doesn’t mean there aren’t things going on in the NHL world. The Tampa Bay Lightning were in the news a bit on Friday as there was some off the ice action. Jack Finley was placed on waivers and Curtis Douglas had to cut a check due to his actions against the Florida Panthers. Other than that, it was a lovely Friday afternoon. First up was the news that Handsome Jack Finley, the Bolts towering center was placed on waivers. Yes, despite an Olympic b...
