History will judge Matt LaFleur, even if he’s never fired

Unless the Packers have a truly catastrophic end to this season, I don’t think there’s any real chance Matt LaFleur is going to get fired.  There’s been plenty of discussion about LaFleur’s employment prospects with the Packers this week, but the reality is there’s probably not much upside to making that change now, and it […]

Oilers Rumors: 2 Forwards & 2 Defensemen Listed As Trade Candidates

The Edmonton Oilers are about to get a lot healthier, but with that will have to come some roster moves. In order to potentially get any assets back for their players rather than seeing them be picked up on waivers, a trade or two may happen very shortly. Edmonton is right at the salary cap and just had Alec Regula return. This takes Troy Stecher and Ty Emberson out of the lineup if Regula enters. As for the forwards, Zach Hyman, Kasperi Kapanen, and Mattias Janmark are all returning shortly a...

Blackhawks Compete Beginning to Convert Doubters to Believers

Back in early October, just a handful of games into the 2025-26 Blackhawks season, I spotlighted comments from head coach Jeff Blashill and goaltender Spencer Knight that got my attention. They were talking about mindset and process. And the Blackhawks approaching things with an approach of building an understanding of what it takes to be a playoff team. “I really appreciate his eye for details, ” Knight said about Blashill at the time. “ [He’s] building a style that is sustainable o...

Praise for Rea, Praise for the Cubs, Creative Maneuverings, and Other Cubs Bullets

Leaves. So many leaves. Everywhere leaves. You look so pretty on the trees, but, on the ground, I could not hate you more. Some praise for Colin Rea, and for the Cubs for retaining him for 2026 with the option of 2027 . This is not a guy who turns many heads, but that’s not his job. Instead, Rea is a steady swing-man who can fill in at the back of the rotation if needed – which he was for most of the year – and he put up a 3.95 ERA in the process. It doesn’t stand out as being ...

Blues' Veteran Could Come Up In Trade Conversations Again

The St. Louis Blues have won two of their past three games, but they still have a big hole to dig out of. It isn't going to be easy and there is likely going to be some changes to the roster, whether that involves hockey trades or selling a piece or two well ahead of the trade deadline to retool and get some assets. David Pagnotta retorted, "We heard Pavel Buchnevich's name in the summer. He's got a full no-move right now. Do they entertain that?" Like many of the Blues, the offense just hasn'...
