The Los Angeles Kings landed Artemi Panarin, but they weren’t done shopping. Elliotte Friedman reported Los Angeles still wants a true middle of the ice driver, and the Kings even tried to get New York Rangers center Vincent Trocheck included in the Panarin negotiations.

Trocheck, 32, checks every box for a contender trying to get nastier down the middle. He’s producing again this season with 36 points in 43 games, and he’s comin...

Sean McVay turned heads with his hire of soon-to-be offensive assistant Kliff Kingsbury on Friday. The Los Angeles Rams plan to turn a former division rival into a key coach. I can’t help but wonder whether this move foreshadows the offseason plan for the Rams. Kingsbury has a wealth of positive experience developing young quarterbacks. […]
UPDATE: Luka Dončić has been downgraded to out vs. the Warriors due to a left hamstring strain. Luka injured his leg during LA’s recent game against the Sixers and had to exit the contest. While it’s not good that Luka will be missing action, the overall sentiment seems to be that his injury won’t force […]
Matthew Stafford’s MVP season is now cemented in history. The Los Angeles Rams quarterback somehow put together his most impressive season yet in year 17 and took home the hardware. The margin of Stafford’s victory over New England Patriots QB Drake Maye is worth discussing, but in time it is effectively meaningless. We won’t remember […]
Maxi Kleber is far down the list of impactful players on the Lakers roster. He is often only playing during garbage time and doing little during those minutes to make a compelling case for extended play. However, against the Sixers, Kleber had his best performance as a Laker. With Jaxson Hayes suspended for one game, […]
The Athletics made two minor roster moves today as they continue shaping their 2026 club. First, the A’s claimed 32-year-old Cuban infielder Andy Ibáñez off waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers. With their 40-man roster full, the club designated fellow infielder Max Schuemann for assignment to make room for Ibáñez. Last month, the Dodgers signed […]
The New York Rangers have already made one massive change by move Artemi Panarin to the Los Angeles Kings, and it sounds like some moves could be coming involving their core players, specifically, Vincent Trocheck. According to multiple reports, the Detroit Red Wings and Rangers could be working on a deal that sees Trocheck wind up in Motown. The 32-year-old center is signed for three more seasons at $5.6 million AAV, and owns a 12-team no-trade clause. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman discussed ...
The Andy Ibáñez experience with the Dodgers lasted all of 24 days. The A’s claimed the veteran infielder off waivers on Friday, just three days after Ibáñez was bumped off the 40-man roster in Los Angeles. Ibáñez was designated for assignment on Tuesday when the Dodgers claimed outfielder Michael Siani in one of his many […]
Following the conclusion of the 2025 season, there were questions about the future of quarterback Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams. If Stafford wanted to return, there was no doubt that the Rams would have him back. Following an MVP-caliber season and at 37 years of age, it wouldn’t have been shocking to see […]
The Artemi Panarin Sweepstakes are over, as we saw earlier this week, as the New York Rangers traded the pending UFA to the Los Angeles Kings . He then immediately signed a two-year extension with LA with an $11M AAV. We learned that on the morning of the trade, Panarin informed the Rangers that the Kings were the only team he would accept a trade to. But that doesn't mean that others didn't try. In fact, with a rich extension being one of his prerequisites for accepting a trade, there were fo...
Dan Quinn hired Kliff Kingsbury when he became head coach of the Washington Commanders in 2024. Kingsbury was working on a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders, but when they wouldn’t go three years, Washington stepped in and hired the former head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. That relationship ended after his second season when […]

If there’s one thing the Lakers need to improve on this year, it’s shooting. LA makes only 34.9% of its 3-point attempts, ranking 21st in the NBA. One player won’t magically fix this team issue, but the Lakers believe they took a step in the right direction by trading Gabe Vincent for Luke Kennard. After […]
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been named the Associated Press NFL MVP following a 2025 season for the ages. While Stafford lacks the sort of dual-threat wizardry found in recent MVPs such as Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Patrick Mahomes, he does possess near-surgical accuracy and a tireless arm. Stafford earned a total […]

Order has been restored in the NBA universe. After a weird time where it felt like we were in the upside down, the Lakers and Grizzlies are back to their rightful places.

The NBA trade deadline went off the rails Tuesday, and it still hasn’t recovered. Jaren Jackson Jr. is now on the Jazz. Anthony Davis is now on the Wizards?! Darius Garland is on the Clippers? James Harden is a Cavalier? And the Sixers gifted the defending champions Jared McCain so they could duck the luxury […]
Throughout NFL history, there have been great players who haven’t been able to reach their full potential on bad teams. While Calvin Johnson ended up as a Hall of Fame wide receiver, he didn’t have the team or individual success that he might have on another team. Running back Steven Jackson is one that Los […]
Heading into a baseball season, you have to think about depth, even when it’s not particularly pleasant to do so. Take the signing of veteran Dodgers’ catcher Austin Barnes for example. For Austin Barnes to have a meaningful impact on the 2026 season, something has gone wrong for either Luis Torrens or, more problematically, Francisco […]

The Dodgers in December signed the best relief pitcher available on the market, with Edwin Díaz setting a new record for average annual value with his three-year, $69 million contract.
