The Purple Row piece asks whether the Colorado Rockies can contend without an MVP‑caliber player. It notes that every past Rockies playoff run (1995, 2007, 2009, 2017‑18) featured an MVP candidate and calculates that a 2026 playoff team needs about 85 wins, or roughly 37 WAR. With pitching likely limited to the 12‑13 fWAR range seen in recent wild‑card teams, the Rockies’ offense must supply 24‑25 fWAR. That translates to at least three All‑Star‑level hitters (≈6 WAR each) plus several quality starters. In 2026 only five players reached the quality starter benchmark, though prospects like Hunter Goodman, Cole Carrigg, and Charlie Condon hint at upside. The article concludes the Rockies need a breakout MVP‑type star or a significant upgrade to reach the postseason.

Coach Dan Muse updates on 19‑year‑old Ben Kindel’s recovery, suggesting he may soon travel home.

Cole Knuble (54) sparks the Philadelphia Flyers with back‑to‑back NHL goals in a 3‑1 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Oct. 21, 2026. The right‑winger, called up after injuries depleted the forward group, impressed teammates and coach Rick Tocchet with his energy and hustle, echoing the youthful boost provided by recent call‑ups like Alex Bump. While veteran Michael Bunting has yet to deliver the expected offensive spark, Knuble’s debut—his first two career NHL goals—has ignited the Flyers’ fourth line and lifted locker‑room morale after a sluggish start to the 2026‑27 season.
