The Nashville Predators can't hide the fact that this team just isn't going to compete for the Stanley Cup or the playoffs. It is time for them to rebuild, as the retool hasn't worked. To do that, some of the top sellable pieces will have to be traded. This includes the top players who signed last offseason. David Pagnotta said, "I do think both Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault are willing, will be willing, to move to a top-tier contender." Stamkos and Marchessault are both Stanley Cup...

Aleksei Kolosov rebounds in Phantoms overtime loss to Bears

The Phantoms closed out their first three-in-three weekend of the season yesterday in Hershey, and were looking to exact a bit of revenge after a gutting regulation loss in Saturday’s meeting. And it was a rematch that was going well enough for them, for a time, anyway — after a tightly played first period, the Phantoms were able to finally break through early in the second, grabbing the lead and doing some nice work to hold onto it, at least until things started to go sideways on them, and an...

Why Tyler Herro believes he will fit in Heat’s new offense

Through 13 games, the Miami Heat offense has been a top-12 unit with five 130-point performances, including in Friday’s road loss to the New York Knicks.

NC State is a 4.5-point underdog to FSU

The end of the regular season is just around the corner, and NC State is intent on taking its postseason fate right down to the wire, it appears. The suspense is … well actually there’s not that much suspense. I’m not sure I even care that much about getting to a bowl game. It’d be […]

I attended my first Royals game in 1988, and that was the first season I followed what was really happening to the team.

The Rap-Up: Time for some good ol’ home cooking
