Oregon Women’s Basketball Transfer Portal Update
As with men’s basketball, Oregon women’s basketball encountered some flux at the end of this last season.

The Minnesota Vikings have started the search for their new General Manager, and while the team may not be formally releasing the names of the candidates they’re interviewing for the position, that isn’t stopping other sources from reporting them once they get a hold of them.

Early in the week we were given a wave of stories linking Liverpool and Brazil goalkeeping star Alisson Becker with Juventus, with multiple outlets including Sky claiming the Serie A club had made the 33-year-old their top goalkeeping target and would commit “significant resources” to signing him. That always seemed more likely to revolve around […]
Your lottery team knows where their pick is now. Here’s why they should trade it
Last night saw the hockey world settle in to watch the NHL draft lottery, an annual event in which a collection of ping pong balls reward whichever franchise and its fans are found to be the most noble and pure of heart . So now we know the NHL’s order for this June’s draft, pending any trades. And it really feels like we’re only saying that last part to be polite. It’s exceedingly rare to see a team trade a pick in the first half of the first round, at least once the lottery has come and gone...
The Oilers need to prioritize re-signing Kasperi Kapanen
There’s a long list of things that need to get done this offseason for the Edmonton Oilers, and some decisions will require weighing the options, but re-signing Kasperi Kapanen should be an easy one to make, and extending him should be at the top of the priority list.

NHL Mock Draft: Maple Leafs select Gavin McKenna #1 overall
The Toronto Maple Leafs have started the John Chayka and Mats Sundin era off with a fortunate bounce.

San Jose Sharks Open to Trading #2 Overall Pick
The San Jose Sharks had luck on their side Tuesday night, as they've won the second overall pick at next months' NHL Draft in Buffalo. General manager Mike Grier was very excited with the news, as the Sharks and the Maple Leafs were the big winners of the night, moving up the draft board in a major way.

Oilers & Blues Emerging as Potential Trade Partners
After a short playoff run, the Edmonton Oilers should be in for a busy offseason. The Oilers' roster is simply not strong enough right now, and they have multiple needs to address during the summer because of it.
