Why Are the US Women Dominating the Olympics This Year?

Team USA’s women’s hockey team is storming through the 2026 Winter Olympics, and the heartbeat of this run has a distinctly Minnesota pulse. With an unbeaten record and a berth in the semifinals already secured, players with ties to the State of Hockey are driving the tempo, scoring, and the standar...

Flames' Veteran Getting Lots Of Trade Interest, Shocking If He Stays

The Calgary Flames are going through some changes, and this season it started with Rasmus Andersson, a pending UFA, heading to the Vegas Golden Knights . The Flames have a number of young players they'd like to get in the NHL or see take control of the team with better opportunities quickly, but can't really do that with certain players hanging around. Blake Coleman is one of the players I'm talking about and David Pagnotta said, "A lot of smoke. I would be surprised if he's not moved by the d...

Olympic Knockout Rounds Set

The Olympic men’s hockey round robin is complete, with things generally playing out as expected save for a couple of exceptions. One of those is Sweden, though “didn’t win your group” is not exactly an emergency crisis like, say, losing to Latvia would be. Back on the home front, non-Olympic NHLers (including all Russians, heh) […]

Ryan Bliss, the mountain holds the cards

Embarrassing confession time: I unabashedly love the Olympic Games. In my defense, it’s in my DNA: I was born during the Lake Placid Olympics, a week before the Miracle On Ice. Wait, let me make this even more embarrassing: I love the Olympics largely because I was a kid in Seattle for the 1990 Goodwill […]

Ahead of the Numbers: #7 Purdue vs. #1 Michigan

What may end up being the most significant game in the B1G conference slate from a national perspective will see the #1 Michigan Wolverines visit Mackey Arena to take on the #7 Purdue Boilermakers. It is the first time since the 2004/2005 season that the #1 team will visit Mackey Arena and the ninth time […]

Derrick White doesn’t need to make shots to be elite

Derrick White is testing the validity of the old NBA adage that it is a “make or miss league.” Despite enduring a career-worst scoring efficiency season, he is still grading out as one of the league’s most impactful players. This should not be possible. Even in the analytics era, we should still be able to […]

Monday Quickie - Miles to go before we sleep

 Last week the Nats signed Miles Mikolas as their first "FA to sign to trade later" of the off-season and honestly I like the deal.   For those that don't remember Miles as one of the quality St Louis starters undone by the Nats staff obliterating his offense in the 2019 NLCS, a little background. He was initially a failed starter for the Padres that went over to Japan and had some success.  The Cardinals brought him back to the states in 2018 and he performed great, then o...

The Bucks have a separation-of-powers problem

Not four years ago, the Bucks had an elite on-court product, massively spurred by stability and synergy from ownership on down. Now, despite the recent good form, the team is overall in a much worse spot, and while some of the reasons for that have been beyond the Bucks’ control, many have been within their […]
