The Chicago Blackhawks kick off a four-game road trip Tuesday night against the New York Islanders. And oh yeah, top prospect Anton Frondell is officially in the lineup tonight for his NHL debut!
Since the Blackhawks last saw the Islanders at the end of December, their points percentage has ticked up slightly from .590 to .599, but they’ve still slid in the standings, going from third in the Metropolitan Division to just outside the second wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. The Det...
I don’t think anyone was more excited about Jordan Clarkson joining the Knicks this summer than I was. I had been hoping they’d bring him in since last season. From day one, Knicks fans understood his role would be coming off the bench, but beyond that, it was unclear how much of an impact he […]
A struggling Rangers lineup gets a fresh look, as Adam Sykora earns his shot following a strong stretch in Hartford.
The 2026 Major League Baseball season will reportedly begin tomorrow, March 25th, when the San Francisco Giants take on the New York Yankees in the hallowed grounds of the Bronx.

Baseball history is full of great players. It is also full of players whose stories become intertwined with legends so large that they never quite stand on their own. Ernie Shore just happens to be one of those players. The former Yankee celebrates his birthday today, and while his career deserves recognition on its own, […]
Scott Wheeler ranks the Devils 22nd best in his prospect pool rankings. Let’s talk about it. State of the Pool Per Scott Wheeler’s most recent rankings for the Athletic (where you can read here), the Devils prospect pool ranks 22nd in the league, down from 17th last season. While Wheeler does not given a reason […]
Outside of Edwin Díaz, the Mets’ bullpen proved to be volatile last year. While a number of factors contributed to that reality, one of David Stearns’ goals this offseason was to strengthen the relief corps. He started that process when he signed closer Devin Williams to a three-year deal, but he followed that up a […]

The Ottawa Senators just got even more brutal news to their blueline. In the middle of a crucial late-season push, Ottawa lost not one but two defensemen in the same game, with both Thomas Chabot and Lassi Thomson now expected to miss time.
It happened during a gritty 2-1 win over the New York Rangers , where the Senators allowed just nine shots on goal. Travis Green gave an update on both Thomas Chabot & Lassi Thomson post game: "They'll both be out for a while, that's about all I can...
Mika’s 1,000th game deserved better—but a no-show effort and nine total shots summed up another brutal night.
Meet the Mets The Mets finally announced that Carson Benge will be on the team’s Opening Day roster, which felt like an inevitability after his incredible spring training performance. Anthony DiComo offered some predictions for the team heading into the season. Writing for SNY, John Harper made his predictions for the Mets’ season. Tim Britton […]
Heading into the spring, Jasson Domínguez was the consensus pick for the Yankees’ fourth outfielder spot, as the former top prospect, now headed into his sophomore season, would be the team’s number one option in the event one of Cody Bellinger, Trent Grisham, Giancarlo Stanton, or — baseball gods forbid — Aaron Judge had to […]

I’ve written a couple posts in spring training about the ABS challenge system and how teams are going to react to it. It seems like an element tailor-built for the Yankees; the team preaches control over the strike zone at the plate and was the first to really lean into pitch-framing almost two decades ago. […]

The head coach described it as “very positive,” and it was easy to see why. Ben Saraf turned in a career-best performance as did Malachi Smith, Ziaire […]

The Blazers dominated the game, never allowing Brooklyn to have a chance. The victory pushed Portland’s record to 35-37. It’s not sterling, but neither was the opponent. As has been true […]
Some NBA games are dramatic, others challenging, others intense and fun. The matchup between the Portland Trail Blazers and the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night in Portland was none of those things. Perfunctory is more like it. Fortunately, the Blazers aren’t interested in any of that fancy stuff. All they want nowadays is enough wins […]
