Was Caleb Banks a Reach at 18? Real Forno Show Goes Deep
The Minnesota Vikings selected defensive tackle Caleb Banks 18th overall in the 2025 NFL Draft — and the debate hasn’t stopped since. On the latest episode of The Real Forno Show, Vikings analyst Tyler Forness and producer Dave Stefano of Vikings First & SKOL, deliver a deep-dive breakdown of Caleb Banks, dismantling the “reach” narrative […]
Game 5 Aftermath: How the game was won for the Penguins
Here are the areas we highlighted in the Game 4 win. Go through it again and check off how many that could also apply to Game 5: -Sidney Crosby dug deep, embodying a ‘whatever it takes’ mentality on a two-point night -Kris Letang scored a goal, and beyond that played well over 23 minutes -Pittsburgh […]
Tuesday Morning Texas Rangers Update
Good morning. Kennedi Landry writes that Corey Seager’s slump lowlighted another low-scoring loss for the Texas Rangers on Monday. Evan Grant writes that the second spot in the lineup being a black hole thus far is among the reasons the Rangers have struggled to score runs. Jeff Wilson chimes in on the Rangers’ assertion that […]

Pre-Scout: Ducks giving Oilers taste of their own power play medicine and it may be fatal
Now that long-time Los Angeles Kings captain Anze Kopitar is retired, you’d love to pick his brain. Anze, remember all those first-round playoff series against the Edmonton Oilers? How did it feel when your penalty kill was absolutely helpless against their power play? If nothing else, the future first ballot Hall of Famer and this…
Wrapping Up the 2025-26 Season
As the calendar flips into another playoffless May this week for the Red Wings, we don’t have any breaking news, or much on the immediate horizon, for that matter. But we do have plenty to talk about stemming from the Red Wings’ locker cleanout media availabilities, as well as the first round of the NHL playoffs. Let’s get started. And if there are intriguing matters not covered here, drop them in the comments. Maybe we can roll out a mailbag-type article or two while we await the busy se...

Bottom Six Minutes: Well, now it’s a best of three
Nothing about this series between the Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning has been easy on anyone involved. The intensity has made it an absolute grind for the players, and I think I can speak on behalf of most fans when I say that these games have had me chewing my nails down to the quick. It just might be the best first-round series in the league, and it shouldn’t come as much surprise that it has turned into a best-of-three, with both teams now having taken a game in the other’s barn...

Flyers scratching Matvei Michkov changes absolutely nothing
Despite the Flyers putting their cross-state arch rivals on the brink, sitting one game away from round two after a season that was almost a write-off, there is still one negative talking point that has gotten beaten to death for the past week or so. While the Flyers deserve plaudits for over-performing to a man in their round one series, it has cast a spotlight on some of their younger stars who haven’t been able to make an impact. After Denver Barkey got off the snide in Game 4 with a t...
Coming back from 0-3: 87% of teams don’t force a Game 6. The Penguins have.
Last week we posted about the history of teams coming back from 0-3 holes in a series, mostly for something to do on an off day. There wasn’t a lot of reason to believe that the Penguins would have much of a chance left against the Flyers at that point based on how the games […]
Ryan Tverberg scores first playoff goal, Dennis Hildeby a rock between the pipes as Toronto Marlies punch ticket to second round
“We played a lot smarter, stayed above them a lot more, and were able to shut a lot more things down against them.” – Ryan Tverberg “Right out of the gate, the hustle was there.

The Beast (Dennis Hildeby) was phenomenal.” – Vinni […] The post Ryan Tverberg scores first playoff goal, Dennis Hildeby a rock between the pipes as Toronto Marlies punch ticket to second round appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .

Maple Leafs Have Big Decision to Make With Matias Maccelli
Matias Maccelli's first season as a Toronto Maple Leaf did not go according to plan for anyone involved. The 25-year-old winger was acquired from the Utah Mammoth last summer for a conditional third-round pick that carried a chance to become a second-rounder if Maccelli reached 51 points and the Maple Leafs qualified for the playoffs. Neither condition was met. Maccelli finished with 14 goals and 25 assists in 70 games, and the Maple Leafs ended the season 32-35-14 with a second-last fin...
