#CardCorner: 1979 Topps Tom Paciorek kkundahl Sat, 2026-08-08 10:31 One of three brothers who played in the big leagues, Tom Paciorek fought for a decade for a regular gig in the majors before becoming one of the most respected hitters of the early 1980s.

Those skills kept him in the majors for 18 ...

The Rockets cruelly confusing Tari Eason problem

If I’ve tried to make anything clear during my time as a Houston Rockets writer, it’s this: I love Tari Eason. This has not been a secret. Eason is the prototype “player you want”. He’s the guy that, when you look back at a championship roster, you say, “Sure, he averaged 12 and 6, but […]

Oblak completed the 90 minutes in Saturday’s World Cup qualifier, a 2-0 loss to Kosovo at Stožice Stadium in Ljubljana. But national team coach Matjaz Kek confirmed post-match […]

A Good Comeback, Foligno Hurt, Depth, Prospect Highlights, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

The Blackhawks won a game they should win last night. Yes, the team on the other side of the rink was the Toronto Maple Leafs. And there were still a couple top-shelf names in their lineup. But the Leafs are not a good hockey team right now, and they didn’t have Auston Matthews. After competing with the Devils without having their best game on Wednesday, playing much better/faster against the Leafs without a win would have been disappointing. The Leafs are near the bottom of the Eastern C...

Initial Impressions from the Oklahoma Game

Bottom Six Minutes: Habs’ anemic power play is costing them

Losers of two straight in regulation, the Montreal Canadiens took to their home ice on Saturday night to face the Boston Bruins, hoping to end their home stand on a high note. That didn’t happen, as Boston escaped Montreal with a 3-2 regulation win, sending the Habs on their short one-game road trip still looking to figure out how they can get themselves back in the win column. Squandering an infuriating amount of opportunities on the power play was, without a doubt, the main reason for t...

While I’m a perpetual “rose colored glasses” sort of fan, not everyone can manage that. They need a deeper reason...
