The Chicago Bulls will welcome the Sacramento Kings into the United Center tonight, and I think we all know there is only one way that game will end …
A tie.
In all seriousness, few things would feel more Bulls than having your first loss of the 2025-26 season come against Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan. The organization finally moved on from both over the last year-plus, paving the way for a new chapter of youthful and more well-rounded Bulls basketball. As strange as it is to say,...
Note the later start time.
The New Jersey Devils are looking to remain competitive in net by looking to extend Jacob Markstrom. Initially, it was rumored that the Devils' starting goalie was looking for a long-term extension, but it looks like the two sides are going to go shorter in the term. Elliotte Friedman said, "Seems like they're pretty hopeful. They were looking maybe a couple of years, shorter-term, big number. They're going at it here, trying to close something." From New Jersey's standpoint, there should be s...
Ex-Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov knows what it feels like to arrive with expectation, a reputation, and an immediate demand to deliver. He’s been there twice, in fact. First at Tottenham Hotspur, where he took time to adapt to English football’s pace and intensity, and later at Manchester United, where his languid brilliance sometimes disguised […]

That's Wild
The Minnesota Wild clearly want something else on their blue line. Yes, there are so many good and solid players on it but they want that extra grit and grind and physicality and roughness to it that can take them to the next level. It is an issue that started to become more prom...
This weekend, the Green Bay Packers’ game will be televised on an impressively small number of local stations around the United States. Their Week 9 matchup with the Carolina Panthers is up against a few unfortunate factors: First, it is not a premier opponent, nor is this game even a divisional matchup; second, it is […]
The Minnesota Wild lost 7-6 in overtime to the San Jose Sharks last Sunday, despite being heavily favored at -220 (FanDuel listed the Sharks at +185). The Sharks entered the game and were 1-5-2, dead last in the standings. The Wild also had a tough start to the season, having lost 5 of their last 6...
The Montreal Canadiens completed their season series against the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night, and have swept it with a 4-3 win, with both wins being of the overtime variety. The Habs have struggled to hold on to third period leads in the early goings of this season, a trend that may soon necessitate a deeper discussion, but the good news is that their sheer talent has made them unbeatable in overtime so far.
As concerning as blown third-period leads may be, zero concern exists around ...
It’s time again for another weekly update from around the pipeline. As usual, it was a busy weekend with all the NCAA and CHL players playing in multiple games. The European prospects have been quiet as of late, with Nikita Yevseyev’s scoring drying up and Amur Khabarovsk’s scoring numbers dipping since the start of the…
The Jets recently claimed rookie linebacker Kobe King off waivers from the Minnesota Vikings. Today we break King down in detail. The 22-year old King is listed at 6’1″ and 250 pounds and was a sixth round pick out of Penn State in April. King, who was an all-Big Ten second-teamer in 2024, recorded four […]
It’s frustrating, having one of the best games you have played this year, only to fall short in the final seconds of the game. Head Coach Ryan Warsofsky held his head high before facing the media. The San Jose Sharks were so close, yet fell to the Los Angeles Kings 4-3 in regulation. The Sharks outshot the Kings 40-14 and had 44 scoring chances to the Kings’ 13, according to Natural Stat Trick, but the score simply didn’t end up in San Jose’s favor.

The Utah Mammoth have signed one of their best young players long-term as Logan Cooley was inked to an eight-year, $10 million AAV deal. Utah Mammoth #TusksUp and Logan Cooley have agreed to terms on an extension: 8 years x $10 million = $80 million. — Frank Seravalli (@frank_seravalli) October 29, 2025 While the price may have been too high at the beginning of the season, Cooley has come out of the gates on fire and has eight goals and 12 points in 11 games. The 21-year-old is one of the leag...
Everyone is invited to the Connor Bedard show.
As the Colorado Avalanche enjoyed a day off, they still announced the signing this week of minor league forward Tristen Nielsen to a two-year NHL contract beginning this season. Per PuckPedia, the cap hit is $775 on a two-way deal with guarantees of $150K in year one and $225K in year two. The 25-year-old left […]
Even though the 2025 NFL season just started, it’s never too early to look ahead toward the 2026 NFL Draft. This weekly series will take a closer look at some of the prospects the Carolina Panthers could select in the 2026 iteration of the Draft. In this series, we’ll only be looking at prospects the […]
The Oregon Ducks hockey team began their regular season campaign this past weekend in Fort Collins Colorado as they took on the Rams of Colorado State. I have tracked the weekend series, and it will be part of my recap article this upcoming weekend. Before getting into the results of the season I wanted to […]
The end of a Hall of Fame career is not always glorious. In fact, it often involves an iconic athlete playing out the string in an unfamiliar place for an unfamiliar team. Think Johnny Unitas with the San Diego Chargers or Brett Favre with the Minnesota Vikings. Think Emmitt Smith with the Arizona Cardinals. Think […]
Morning, all! When the Rangers’ 2025 season ended they had $113 million in salary on the active 26 man roster and $103.5 million on the injured list. Baseball America has the Rangers’ 2025 draft report card. And that’s about all I’m seeing out there this morning.

It was a tough weekend for Edmonton Oilers fans, as the boys dropped both games on the West Coast after disappointing efforts against the Kraken and Canucks. Back at Rogers Place for the first of a three-game home stand, the Oilers welcomed the red-hot Utah Mammoth for the first time since actually having a name….
Adam Fox and Mika shine, Quick stands tall, and the Rangers finally get it done out west. Not very pretty, but oh well.
Nobody really expected to beat the Buffalo Bills last week. But a lot of us thought that maybe the Carolina Panthers could look competitive against them, even with the venerable Andy Dalton under center (Happy Birthday, buddy!). What we saw instead was so disheartening and played so directly against the established identity and strengths of […]
How about Connor Bedard, eh ? I’m not a hockey guy, but he is the kind of rising talent that could get me glancing over at the Blackhawks more and more.
… which makes me think about the Cubs, and about the nature of making non-fans into casual fans, and casual fans into hardcore fans. I think it’s probable that having really interesting, exciting players or storylines is what can bring folks into the fold if they otherwise paid very little attention to the team or the sport. But it’s wi...
