Latest blog entries from New York teams across every league
Along with “Thrill of Defeat” host and Pittsburgh guy Dan Hopper, we remember Dick Tarnstrom, who turned getting waived by the Islanders into a starring role on some bad transitional Penguins teams. While the Penguins have had some all time great players in their history, the periods between those players were pretty dire. Bankruptcies, empty […]
On January 21, 2026, Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat were traded to the Milwaukee Brewers. This list, and their place on it, was compiled back in late-November. For continuity’s sake, I decided upon including Williams and Sproat’s profile, but for all intents and purposes, every player on our list below the pair can be considered […]
The New York Knicks are rolling into Detroit riding an absolute heater of an eight-game winning streak, looking to make a… The post theScore Bet Promo Code LEHIGH: Get $1,000 Bonus for NBA, Big Game This Weekend appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
There's only one topic in Rangers-land worth discussing, and we all know what it is.
As discussed here and here, the Yankees’ bullpen has potential but is still, basically, a work in progress. Between this point and the start of the season, the team is quite likely to add at least one additional impact arm, whether it comes via trade, free agency, or after the spring training cuts have been […]
A bleak loss, a brilliant goalie, and the first real reminder of life after the Breadman—Game Notes from another rough chapter in the retool.
Players don’t switch teams in free agency anymore. Instead, they get traded with one year left on their contract to a team that they’re willing to sign an extension with. Based on Koby Altman’s comments to the media on Thursday afternoon, it seems that’s what happened with James Harden’s trade to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Altman […]
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
Meet the Mets It’s official: Francisco Lindor will not get to play for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic for insurance reasons. Keith Hernandez and SNY have agreed to a three-year contact. With pitchers and catchers set to report next week and spring training games to follow not too long after that, Abbey Mastracco […]
When something transcends its own arena, gauging its greatness becomes a very difficult thing. As a film lover, I have found it difficult to assess something like The Godfather fairly — it has almost become its own island within the artform, people joke about it without having seen it, and it is held on a […]
This post is part of a series of daily questions that we’ll ask the community here at Amazin’ Avenue throughout the month of February. We hope you find the questions engaging and that our prompts can spark some fun conversations in the comments. What grade would you give David Stearns for the Mets’ 2025-26 offseason?
Here are your links for today: Devils Links The Devils dropped Thursday night’s game against the Islanders by a 3-1 score. The Devils head into the Olympic break on a three-game losing streak, having scored a total of two goals in those games. [Devils NHL] A trade: “On the surface, it is a little odd […]
Good morning Gang Green Nation! Another day, another drama for the New York Jets. Jets defensive lineman Harrison Phillips told Rich Cimini that Aaron Glenn “inherited a very cancerous, truculent group” of players last season. Oof. Phillips went on to express his belief that Glenn had what it takes to turn this situation around. I […]
The 2026 Yankees have a lot riding on their stars repeating the quality seasons that they put up in 2025, but there’s a select few that they would like to see rebounds from. No one fits that latter category more than Anthony Volpe, who was brutally bad at the plate for months at a time […]
SNY | Phillip Martínez: The Yankees unveiled a list of 27 non-roster invitees on Thursday, led by some of the best prospects in the organization, such as George Lombard Jr., Carlos Lagrange, and Ben Hess. Veterans like Seth Brown and Paul DeJong, not to mention ultimate reclamation project Marco Luciano, will try to win a […]
The Carolina Hurricanes earned another two points as they shutdown and shutout the New York Rangers, 2-0 on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden. The Canes have now notched points in 10 straight games (8-0-2) and have points in 14 of their last 15 games played. A big part of that is because of goalie […]
And so it begins. While the Lakers made a small move for Luke Kennard on Thursday ahead of the trade deadline, their biggest win came when the Bucks opted not to deal Giannis Antetokounmpo. By kicking the can down the road on his kinda sorta trade demand, it brings the Lakers into the fold this […]
On Super Bowl’s media row this week on PFT Live, Indianapolis Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner shared a learning lesson regarding being a tad late to a training session, which drew his new head coach Shane Steichen’s ire—after just arriving a few weeks earlier from the New York Jets in a blockbuster NFL trade deadline deal: […]
I’m numb to this at this point, I have never been more excited to have some time away from my favorite team in my life. In a vacuum, this was a great defensive effort. Limited the Islanders to 14 shots on goal. Allen was there when we needed him for the most part. But the […]
The Brooklyn Nets had their first game on the other side tonight. The other side of the trade deadline. The other side of weeks spent wondering whether Michael Porter Jr. would still be here. The other side of the Cam Thomas “era,” if you can even call it that. But while the moves made today […]
Up until a little over 16 minutes into the third, this recap had a very different vibe. The Islanders did only register 14 shots on goal, apparently tying their lowest ever against the New Jersey Devils, last done in 2004. Ilya Sorokin needed to put in a Vezina-level (and frankly, Hart-level) performance to keep the […]
A lifeless performance sent the Rangers into the Olympic break on a sour note, as Carolina controlled nearly every inch of the ice in a 2–0 shutout at Madison Square Garden.

Contrary to recency bias, there were good times between Cam Thomas and the Brooklyn Nets — a lot of them. “They loved me and I loved their vibe. I felt like everything was in place… I just felt like it was just a match made in heaven. All our personalities connected,” said a smiling 19-year-old […]
