On October 17th in 2013, Toronto Maple Leafs goalie Jonathan Bernier flubbed a 174 foot clearing attempt that bounced off the end boards before deflecting off his skate and into the net, giving the Carolina Hurricanes a 3-2 lead with seven minutes to play. The miscue was awarded to Hurricanes' defenseman Ron Hainsey with an assist to netminder Cam Ward, but credit goes to hard-charging
Happy Friday. We have an earlier start time today, 6:00 Eastern. The Brewers and Dodgers start at 8:30 Eastern. One of the talking heads on TV this morning, said, that “Momentum is a real thing in playoff baseball.” I’m thinking ‘didn’t the Mariners win the first two games of the series in a very convincing […]
Laba forced his way onto the roster, but the ripple effects are everywhere, from Juuso Parssinen’s future to the kids stuck waiting in Hartford.
Trust the process—even when it hurts. The Rangers’ latest loss to Toronto was full of good signs, bad luck, and one very overdue goal.

We’re two weeks into the season, and it’s too early. Too early for panic, too early for trades, too early for rankings, too early for conclusions.

Three down, one to go. The Brooklyn Nets concluded a successful trip to China with a 111-109 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.

Blue Jays 8 Mariners 2 I don’t think we can say enough about how great Max Scherzer was. He gave up a Josh Naylor home run in the second. He ended up going 5.2 innings, allowing three hits, four walks, with five strikeouts. The second run against him scored after he left the game, and […]
Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 2-1 overtime win over the New York Rangers, which improved the Maple Leafs’ record to 3-2-0.

It’s a two-game day! First up are the Dodgers and Brewers coming to you from Los Angeles. The Dodgers lead the series 2-0 after winning both games in Milwaukee. That’s not the way to get to your first World Series since 1982, Brewers. The nightcap will be the Mariners and Blue Jays in game four […]
The road domination continued with the Blue Jays demolition of the Mariners in Seattle, meaning away teams are 5-0 in the Championship Series so far.
