On October 17th in 2002, 21 year old Lethbridge College student Timmy Hurlburt flubbed an attempt to streak the Saddledome surface with five minutes remaining in a Boston Bruins/Calgary Flames matchup.
Acting on a $200 dare, Hurlburt successfully scaled the nine foot glass clad solely in red socks and a wrist-watch only to botch the descent. Landing off-balance, Hurlburt's head struck the ice
The Mariners made changes to their lineup, which I would do too. Arozarena moves down, Rodriguez moves up. I’ve always liked the idea of putting Vlad at the top of our order, and this is much the same for the Mariners. IKF is back in there. I’m half surprised that Gimenez isn’t batting cleanup. Today’s […]

For his first couple of hires, Paul Toboni has been leaning on people he knows. His first hire was Devin Pearson, the Red Sox scouting director he had a ton of history with. Now, it was reported that he has brought Red Sox field coordinator Andrew Wright with him. Wright will be part of the […]
Roma entered the October international break in a unique position for the past decade of the club’s history—they were tied for first in Serie A. While nobody’s planning a Scudetto parade just yet, and Gian Piero Gasperini clearly still needs to kick the Giallorossi into high gear, so far Romanisti have gotten about as good […]
It feels weird not having a midweek game to focus on, but here we are. Last time out the Royals shared the points with the Grecians – goals from Jack Marriott and Jayden Wareham cancelling each other out. It was a very poor game yet again from the Royals and things are starting to look […]
The Buffalo Sabres put a nice 8-4 win on the board Wednesday night over the Ottawa Senators, their first triumph of the young season. But that won't put an end to the turmoil surrounding the team just yet. The latest hot-button topic is the future of star forward and pending UFA Alex Tuch. Contract talks have been put on hold for now, but his price tag continues to soar, to "staggering" levels, as noted by Daily Faceoff's Jeff Marek. On Marek's The Sheet podcast on Friday, fellow insider David...
Game notes Setting the scene Two Ohio-based schools with somewhat similar color schemes clash at the Glass Bowl. Toledo and Kent State started the year on exact opposite sides of the preseason coaches’ poll, but the two are neck-and-neck in the conference standings. In fact, Kent State actually passed Toledo last week as the Golden […]
Sharktopus is alleging the referee in their match against Bellevue Athletic had “conflict of interest.”
For the last couple of years, the Cubs have acquired former Houston Astros relievers, notably Hector Neris and Ryan Pressly. As you know, neither one of those worked out for the Cubs and both were unconditionally released by the team mid-season. Now, the Astros are going to try the reverse signing move by acquiring a […]
It feels like we’re all just trying to get through the week as we eagerly await Saturday night’s prime time game between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and USC Trojans. It’s the Battle for the Jeweled Shillelagh and every factor going into the game counts — especially if there’s going to be inclement weather. So […]

Ferreira is poised to finish the season strong.
The Philadelphia Flyers might be making a trade sometime soon and there’s already a team poking around depth defenseman Egor Zamula.
According to Daily Faceoff’s Anthony Di Marco, the Calgary Flames are looking to make an addition on their blue line and specifically on the left side. And even more specifically, someone who is young and also has some size to him. Someone who checks all of those boxes is Zamula and he has been already linked to the Flames.
Sounds like the #flames a...
