In front of a raucous crowd of 6,104 at Place Bell, the Montreal Victoire defeated the Minnesota Frost 2-1 on Tuesday night in the decisive fifth game of their Professional Women’s Hockey League semifinal series. For a franchise that had reached the playoffs in each of its first three seasons but had never advanced beyond the opening round, this victory marked a major breakthrough.

*It was a big day yesterday for the assembled Flyers media, as they had their chance to ask the Flyers players anything they wanted, to presumably get some insight into how these guys felt about their season, the playoffs, etc. So naturally they asked a bunch of questions about Matvei Michkov, and, also naturally, his teammates had nothing bad to say about him. [ BSH ] *Of course they spoke to Matvei himself as well, and as usual, Michkov did nothing to shy away from his disappointment in...

Pavel Dorofeyev roofed the rebound of Jack Eichel’s shot for his second goal of the game 4:10 into overtime to lift the Vegas Golden Knights to a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks in Game 5 at T-Mobile Arena on Tuesday. Tomas Hertl had a goal and an assist, and Carter Hart finished with 34 saves for Vegas, who took a three games to two lead in the series. Beckett Sennecke scored in his fourth straight game of the series, and Olen Zellweger tied it for the Ducks with 3:05 remaining in regulati...
I'm not here to point out the embarrassing act that the Barrie Colts pulled following their OHL semifinal win. It was all over sports highlight shows, and Colts head coach Dylan Smoskowitz apologized for the behaviour that he said he encouraged. What makes that look even worse in hindsight at this point, though, is that the Colts' season came to an end tonight as they were swept in the OHL Final by the Kitchener Rangers. Again, I'm not here to rip on the Colts for what they did, but karma seem...
Qualifying was completed today at the two events on the USTA Pro Circuit, with the women competing in a W35 in Bethany Beach Delaware and the men playing at an M25 in Pensacola Florida.Rain washed out the first day of qualifying Monday in Bethany Beach, so two rounds had to be played today, but fortunately for officials, the qualifying draws did not fill and and several players qualified without
Zac Gallen getting lit up, the Dbacks offense allowing an opposing pitcher to cruise through 8 innings needing only 95 pitches. I feel like I have typed this exact game recap multiple times already this season. So I will make this quick as there is not much that came from this game that is going […]
The Texas Rangers scored seven runs while the Arizona Diamondbacks scored four runs. The roof was open allowing for a breath of fresh air at The Shed tonight. One night after going nine innings without a run, the Rangers scored one batter into tonight’s game when surprise leadoff hitter Joc Pederson took Zac Gallen deep […]
The NHL announced on Tuesday evening that Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy will be suspended for the first six games of next season, the result of a slash on Buffalo’s Zach Benson in Game 6 of the Bruins-Sabres series. McAvoy was given a major and a game misconduct on the play in real time, with that […]
First period Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen is in net, as the Buffalo Sabres desperately look for someone to slow down Montreal’s offence. Luukkonen stops the first shot of the game, from Cole Caufield on a two-on-one with Juraj Slafkovský. It’s not as energetic a start as the Sabres had in Game 3. Alex Tuch gets a lane to the net and sends a short-side shot off the post. Now the Sabres are beginning to make things happen. Dobeš had to shoot out his glove to deny the latest sh...

Daryl Morey is no longer with the Philadelphia Sixers, which might not have happened if it weren't for the Knicks.
Former Real Madrid midfielder Wesley Sneijder has weighed in on two of the biggest talking points surrounding the club right now: the coaching situation and the criticism directed at Kylian Mbappé. Speaking in an interview with HardRock Bet, Sneijder strongly endorsed José Mourinho as the ideal candidate to manage Real Madrid again, while also criticizing […]
Adding to the big haul I covered in the last recruiting update, Oregon Men’s Basketball signed Freshman Seven Spurlock, the No. 8 prospect in the state of Texas. At 6-foot-5, Spurlock is likely going to be another combo guard for the Ducks, and their guards and forwards are all filled up at this point. Still […]
The Flyers held their exit interviews on Tuesday with most of the players taking questions. What emerged was a common theme among both some unrestricted and restricted free agents was their desire to remain with Philadelphia when the season begins next October. Although obviously a lot of the team’s core remains under contract, there were a few players on Tuesday who were on short-term contracts, waiver wire pickups, or at a possible crossroads where both team and player may part company....

One of the questions about the Vegas Golden Knights stalling the Edmonton Oilers’ ability to interview Bruce Cassidy was how the Los Angeles Kings played into all of this. After all, in Frank Seravalli’s initial report, which detailed the drama, he indicated the Kings were after Cassidy for their own vacant head coaching spot, but…

The Jets agreed to terms on a three year contract with Breece Hall last week. The running back addressed the media about his new contract and made the case that he’s on the verge of a career year. Hall has been a very good player thus far in his career. I personally think it’s tough […]
It sounds like Sidney Crosby and the rest of the Pittsburgh Penguins are getting their wish. After their season ended after their first-round defeat to the Philadelphia Flyers, Crosby and the rest of the Penguins went public with their thoughts on Evgeni Malkin's future. With the Russian forward's contract expiring this season, there's been plenty of speculation about Malkin's future in Pittsburgh. However, on Tuesday, Kyle Dubas released a statement and made it clear the organization would lo...
