It’s certainly been a good week for Oliver Bonk.
The Flyers prospect, though having gotten off to a late start to his professional career after an injury taken during rookie camp left him sidelined until a bit into the month of December, has been steadily ramping up his play through his first month of play with the Phantoms, and has really seemed to turn a corner since the team returned from their holiday break. Bonk closed out 2025 on a high note, getting in for his ninth game with the t...

First period The decision to get Koivunen back […]
The first half of the New York Jets game against the Buffalo Bills is in the books, and the Jets are trailing the Bills, 21 – 0. The game opened with the Jets on defense. It did not go well. Josh Allen played one snap to preserve his bogus consecutive games streak. The Bills backups took over […]
NHL Player Safety handed down their decision this afternoon.
It's an unwritten rule—once the officials step in to break up a fight, it's over. But Calgary Flames ' fourth-liner John Beecher overstepped that line Saturday night, throwing a sucker punch at Nashville Predators' forward Michael McCarron.

Kasperi Kapanen is coming back. The Edmonton Oilers forward will return to the lineup this week, as soon as Tuesday, according to head coach Kris Knoblauch. Kapanen returned to practice on December 31st, and reports are optimistic that he’ll be game-ready soon. “He’s getting very close, and if it’s not Tuesday, probably Thursday. But definitely…
Elliotte Friedman on Winnipeg's search for more scoring.
First period
Montreal seems more ready for the start of the game today.
Cole Caufield gets a breakaway, but Thomas Harley makes a stick lift very close to Caufield’s hands at the last second. It could have been called a penalty shot had the ref wanted to, but it was borderline.
It’s a decent start, but it still isn’t coming with many shots.
The third line is able to get set up in the offensive zone, and then swing the puck back to the point to get a little breathing room....
The Miami Hurricanes have had some very memorable moments out in the desert during their championship eras. Unfortunately, they haven’t been good ones. The Hurricanes are 0-4 all time in the Fiesta Bowl, a place that’s been just a cursed experience for them during their otherwise glorious runs during the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. […]
Another week, another potential NFL record for Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. But this one wasn’t meant to be. Josh Allen has been pulled from the game against the New York Jets and he sits at 39 touchdowns on the season. With his first touchdown on Sunday, Allen would have hit the 40-touchdown mark for […]

“I don’t know that we necessarily want to get into that type of game (run and gun) with [Rochester]. Once we started to structure it up, get above them, and create some turnovers, they didn’t have the same success as in the first period. Credit to our players for turning it around right from the […]

The San Francisco 49ers anxiously await their Wild Card opponent. On Sunday afternoon, a Los Angeles Rams win over the Arizona Cardinals would mean the Niners are the sixth seed.
