Round 14: Juventus vs. Napoli match preview

These days, Juventus going to Naples to face Napoli is always going to be a very, very important domestic fixture. Napoli are, as much as you might hate it, one of the standards in Serie A these days, and that is a place in which Juventus are trying to return to rather than being whatever […]

Scenes From Morning Skate: Knoblauch sticks with four-goal second line

Kris Knoblauch didn’t exactly plan for Vasily Podkolzin, Leon Draisaitl, and Matt Savoie to become his second line against the Seattle Kraken, and now the Winnipeg Jets. But when you’ve already cycled through 28 different forward combinations in your first 13 games, you’re not so much making calculated decisions as you are reacting to whatever…

Dallas Cowboys may have found a late-round gem in WR Ryan Flournoy

The disappointment is still fresh from the Dallas Cowboys unfortunate 44-30 loss to the Detroit Lions Thursday night in Week 14. It’s much easier to dwell on all the negative than it is the positive, but sometimes it’s better to look on the brighter side of things. That is where wide receiver Ryan Flournoy comes […]

GM #28: Winnipeg Jets @ Edmonton Oilers

The Winnipeg Jets have picked up points in 2 straight contests, which is something the NHL franchise hasn’t done since mid-November. With a 4-5-1 record over their last 10 games, the True Northers have been struggling with consistency and that has head coach Scott Arniel often shuffling the forwards lines in search of offense. Tonight’s opponent for Winnipeg has also been having difficulties as of late, with the Edmonton Oilers sporting the same 4-5-1 record in the past 10…but scoring goals is...

Three talking points from Real Betis 3-5 Barcelona

Barcelona headed to Seville and a date with Real Betis on the back of a decent enough run of form, the Chelsea result notwithstanding. Temporarily relocated to the Estadio La Cartuja whilst their Estadio Benito Villamarin gets a facelift, the Verdiblancos would’ve approached the game with a degree of confidence too, having not lost there […]

Iowa State 81, Purdue 58: Postgame Video

Let’s State the obvious: Purdue got it’s ass beat today. The Boilermakers lose so rarely in Mackey that any loss stands out. A loss on Keady Court as the no. 1 team in America by 23 points? They could have played the Oklahoma City Thunder and I wouldn’t have expected that. The Cyclones weathered and […]

Blackhawks at Kings — Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

For the second consecutive game, the Blackhawks will face the Kings in Los Angeles tonight. At least this game starts an hour earlier? And at least the Blackhawks were able to pull out an important, impressive win the previous meeting. Teuvo Teräväinen is a game-time decision after taking a puck to the mouth late in the win two nights ago . He’s been terrific for the Blackhawks this season, no matter who’s on the ice with him. The Blackhawks did not have a morning skate, so we’ll have to ...

Gasperini: “We have a squad that’s capable of dealing with all the competitions.”

We’re about halfway through Gian Piero Gasperini’s first season in Rome, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned about his press conferences, it’s that we usually get to discover who has two functioning lungs and who’s been quarantined somewhere deep under Trigoria. That was especially true today, as ahead of Roma’s trip to Cagliari, Gasperini’s […]

Don't Call It A Comeback

After I wrote last week about Garret Sparks suiting up with Bloomington as their EBUG for a week, I didn't expect to write a second story about a former NHL player finding work in the ECHL. The man to the left, though, has given me that opportunity as he signed a standard player contract with the ECHL's Jacksonville Icemen yesterday, and the veteran of 73 NHL games appears to have played last night as the Icemen hosted the Atlanta Gladiators. If you don't recognize him from that picture immedi...
