Assigning patience the label of a virtue never seemed to make sense in the world of professional sports, because it seems to go against every instinct associated with the sport. We use the word “playmaker” in damn near every sport that exists and the literal translation of it has nothing to do with waiting around for something to happen: it’s about making it happen. And that may be the hardest part of this whole rebuild/tanking/whatever we’re calling it that the Blackhawks have been doing...

The Rangers led all of baseball in run prevention in 2025. Behind a full, healthy season from Jacob deGrom, a career-best and injury-shortened season from Nathan Eovaldi, and a big step forward from Jack Leiter, the starting rotation was among the best in baseball and the bullpen was deceptively deep. Even though the team led […]

Edmonton’s defensive issues — both […]
Emil Andrae, just one year ago, was playing top-four minutes for John Tortorella’s Philadelphia Flyers. It looked like the club might have unlocked a new level for their Swedish defender, until the very moment it stopped. You can almost pinpoint on a calendar when things changed for Andrae– December 20, 2024, the day he was sent back to the AHL. “It’s gotten too rich for him,” said Tortorella about the demotion. He was pretty clearly told to work on a specific part of his game, and perhap...

The Philadelphia Flyers have been on a roller coaster this past weekend, beating the Pittsburgh Penguins 4–3 in a thrilling shootout victory Saturday night before getting embarrassed at home by the New York Rangers 6-2.

In the wake of the Flyers dealing forward Bobby Brink to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for defensem...
