The New York Yankees tied for the best record in the AL East last year, losing out on a division title (and postseason bye) via the tiebreaker with the Toronto Blue Jays. What this should tell you is that the Yankees had a decent enough team, albeit one that had a number of players potentially […]

Good teams play the schedule in front of them. The Toronto Raptors have struggled with that this season. But it isn’t too late to rewrite how fans and pundits look back on this iteration of the team.

“We played extremely well. There were moments in this game that I liked more than any game this season.

The Nashville Predators have won six of their past 10 games and are three points out of a playoff spot with one game in hand, but they are still under .500 and unless there's a big turnaround, they aren't a playoff team. If the last season and a half has been any indication, the Predators are not a contender with how they are built. They have plenty of talent for the future, but that is going to have to wait and build. Nashville already moved on from Spencer Stastney and many more players have...

While the Red Wings were hanging around only down 1-0, you had to feel good about the Maple Leafs’ play through 35 minutes of this game. After a bit of a jittery first minute or two, the Leafs were mostly breaking out well at five-on-five, using the middle of the ice more and going off […]
