On a lovely, snowy, day-after-a-late-game Wednesday for Blackhawks fans, I want to share a terrific, highly recommended read from Dom Luszczyszyn and Sean Gentille at The Athletic . Especially after the absolute show he put on in Vegas last night, it’s a great perspective on Connor Bedard ‘s ascent to the elite tier of NHL superstars this season. The piece isn’t exclusively about Bedard; Macklin Celebrini and Leo Carlsson are both also on ridiculous paces to have huge, breakout seasons. B...

However, the outcome is the outcome, and that is that. Newly promoted Burnley FC are the next opponent, and that provides a wonderful opportunity for a […] The post Newcastle United Predicted Starting XI vs Burnley FC appeared first on The Sports Bank .

Good win for the Celtics. When they started so slow, I didn't think it was our night. But they won the game by outworking the Knicks the rest of the way. Yet more fans who trash their own team almost than they do the opponent. I love how they go from all puffed up at the beginning to hating everyone on their team by the end. My favorite comments were about how bringing Hart in for defense was like bringing Spud Webb in for height. And the one about Mazzula t...
