Latest blog entries from Los Angeles teams across every league
The Lakers entered their contest against the Warriors at a low point in the season. They had lost their last three games, doing so in a variety of blowout defeats and poor performances. And with stories around the team surrounding topics such as Deandre Ayton being unhappy about his role and LA’s offensive struggles, the […]
Mookie Betts is in the lineup for his first Cactus League game in 2026, one of a handful of Dodgers regulars being slow-played this spring. Freddie Freeman is also in the lineup, in his planned cleanup spot. Sunday game info
The Edmonton Oilers’ attempts to trade Andrew Mangiapane have failed, thus far, to find him a new home. And with the Oilers going 1-2 out of the Olympic break with disappointing losses to the Anaheim Ducks and San Jose Sharks, the team has taken the drastic measure of placing the disgruntled winger on waivers. Joining…
Fresh off a regulation win over the Edmonton Oilers , the San Jose Sharks are back on the ice and ready to welcome the Winnipeg Jets into town. The Jets are one of six teams that did not play yesterday and so the team is in town and well rested for today’s game. Winnipeg was in Anaheim on Friday and lost to the Ducks 5-4 in overtime. Connor Hellebuyck was in the net for the loss, his first game back since winning the gold medal for Team USA at the Olympics. While not mathematically elimin...
Most would say that they just don't have the horses up front, but the Los Angeles Kings have decided that head coach Jim Hiller isn't the man for the job any longer, relieving him of his duties. We have relieved Jim Hiller of his duties and named D.J. Smith interim head coach for the remainder of the season, Kings Vice President and General Manager Ken Holland announced. In addition, Kings player development coach Matt Greene will join Smith as an assistant coach.… pic.twitter.com/3MCzFf...
The Dodgers hit the road on Monday afternoon to face the Colorado Rockies at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale. This is the first of two meetings between these two National League West foes this spring and this week, with another battle coming Saturday at Camelback Ranch. On Monday, non-roster invitee Ryder Ryan is slated to […]
The Edmonton Oilers’ Jekyll-and-Hyde season continued on their past three-game road trip. They gave up yet another lead to lose to the Anaheim Ducks in the first game, looked like men among boys in a dominating 8-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings, and just when you thought they had turned the page, they came…

The Lakers (35-24) will face another opponent in their division on Sunday when they take on the Sacramento Kings (14-47) at home. This is the last time these two teams will square off this season. Start time and TV schedule Who: Los Angeles Lakers vs. Sacramento Kings When: 6:30 p.m. PT, Mar 1 Where: Crypto.com Arena Watch: Spectrum […]
The big uglies, offensive linemen, storm the field on the fourth and final day of the 2026 NFL Combine. While the Los Angeles Rams return all five starters, a stellar quintet at that, there are question marks behind them. The backups are an interior heavy group and the tackles in reserve are iffy, at best. […]
The Winnipeg Jets began the post-Olympic break off by stumbling out of the starting blocks, as they let a 2 goal lead disappear in the 3rd period versus Anaheim. After rookie defenseman Elias Salomonsson scored his first NHL goal to put the True Northers up 3-1 early in the final frame, the hometown Ducks dominated play to eventually tie things up with 1:22 remaining. The Jets almost escaped overtime with the game deadlocked, but with 13 seconds still left on the scoreboard a puck slipped by C...
The Los Angeles Rams were not in attendance at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. This week still provided insight into their potential offseason plans and helped shape our expectations for the coming months. What did we learn from the rumor mill at the combine? Let’s take a moment to reflect on the week. Extension […]
One step forward, one step back. After an 8-1 win over the Kings in Los Angeles that felt like the team’s most complete effort of the season, the Edmonton Oilers followed it up Saturday with a 5-4 loss to a San Jose Sharks team that came in riding a five-game losing streak. Macklin Celebrini opened…
After experiencing the first week plus a day of spring training to exhaust the February portion of the Cactus League schedule, the Dodgers open March with a Sunday home game against the Angels. Four of the Dodgers’ seven games this week are at Camelback Ranch, including an exhibition game Wednesday against Mexico as part of […]
If the Los Angeles Rams extend Puka Nacua to a record-breaking contract extension this year, as many expect them to do so that he doesn’t come near free agency in 2027, then his value to the team per dollar immediately goes down. That’s just on a per dollar basis—factually a star player making $5 million […]
The Dodgers lineup plans have taken shape over the first few weeks of spring training, with the welcome task of figuring out where to insert newcomer Kyle Tucker into an increasingly stacked lineup. Freddie Freeman, who collected three of his planned 47 plate appearances this spring on Saturday at Camelback Ranch, spoke with Kirsten Watson […]
The Dodgers asked for their starting rotation to go all in during the 2025 World Series, and that included each of their four playoff starters contributing on the mound in Game 7. Blake Snell, who missed four months of the regular season last year, put in 34 innings of work across six postseason appearances en […]
The Lakers took an important step toward capturing the Pacific Division title, one of the NBA’s most prestigious awards. Jokes aside, it is interesting how little divisions matter in the NBA. Because so many teams make the playoffs, the divisions are kind of useless. In the past, division winners were guaranteed home court advantage, but […]
After three straight losses, the Lakers got a sorely-needed win on Saturday, crushing the Warriors 129-101. LA led nearly wire-to-wire, hit a season-high 19 3-pointers and cruised to a very comfortable victory. The purple and gold shot 53.3% overall and held Golden State to just 27.3% from range. The game started with a Draymond Green […]
After beating the wheels off the L.A. Kings on Thursday night, the Edmonton Oilers wrapped up their California road trip with one last stop in San Jose to face the sliding Sharks. The Sharks came into the game on a healthy losing streak, and that meant an opportunity for the Oilers to keep building momentum…
Record 5-4. Change on 2025: +0.5. 5-inning record: 2-7. Whenever a pitcher is leaving the mound with a trainer after having hit two batters and walked a third, while showing sharply lower velocity… Yeah, it’s never a good thing. Such was the situation this afternoon in Tempe for Brandyn Garcia. His fifth inning appearance was […]
Getting built up as a starter to provide flexibility for a Dodgers pitching staff that thrives in its depth, Justin Wrobleski made his second appearance and first start this spring training against the Cubs in a split-squad day. One of the more experienced and battle-tested of the Dodgers’ young options, Wrobleski was very efficient in […]
The Dodgers were a split squad Saturday, but many of their regulars played against the Cubs, among them Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, Max Muncy and Teoscar Hernández. And three Cubs pitchers who are all in the mix for swingman/relief/starter roles threw very well and the Cubs defeated the Dodgers 6-2. And today, if you missed […]
The LA Kings are already missing a major part of their offense after Kevin Fiala went down for the count during the Olympics. Now they've learned that they will be without Andrei Kuzmenko for an extended period after undergoing surgery for a torn meniscus in his knee. Forward Andrei Kuzmenko underwent successful surgery to repair a torn meniscus. He has been placed on injured reserve (IR) and is listed as week-to-week. Additionally, defenseman Angus Booth has been recalled from the @onta...
