Three Head-Scratching Years
Far be it for me to question anyone's position in hockey from where I sit, but I always found it strange that the Toronto Maple Leafs hired Bred Treliving to be their general manager three years ago. That's not to say that Treliving wasn't able to do the job, but it's hard to ignore the immense pressure that comes with sitting in the big chair in a city that demands a winner. Being that 1967 is a lifetime ago and the Leafs moving away from a playoff spot has to come with consequences, and Toro...
2026 NFL Mock Draft: New York Jets nab pass rusher
Arvell Reese, EDGE, Ohio State M-E-S-S: MESS! MESS! MESS! That cheer would accurately describe the product displayed on the wretched and treacherous Meadowlands carpet since forever. It is by God’s grace that we are not fans of the New Jersey Jets. This team somehow outdoes their own ineptitude every year. Here are just a few […]

Blues at Sharks game 72: Lines, game thread and how to watch
The San Jose Sharks are back home and crazily, still in the playoff race. As has been the case all season, no one seems to want to take a strangle hold on those wild card spots, so the Sharks are still well within striking distance, just four points back of the second spot with games in hand on every other team ahead of them. But just behind the Sharks are the St. Louis Blues, who pay a visit to the Shark Tank today. The Blues have not been kind to the Sharks this season. St. Louis won th...
Open Thread: Colorado Avalanche at Calgary Flames (6:30 p.m.)
