Breaking News: NHL Reverses Forfeiture of Senators 1st-Round Pick for Dadonov Trade

The Ottawa Senators are breathing a big sigh of relief today, as the NHL has announced that the team will no longer lose their first-round pick in the 2026 Draft over the Evgenii Dadonov trade controversy of a few years back. Instead, the penalty has been revised so that the Sens will receive the 32nd and final pick of the first round and are not eligible for the Draft Lottery to change that position.

Houston Texans Seven-Round Mock Draft: Texans Trade Up

Mock Draft 3.0 for the Houston Texans kicks off with Houston a banger.

Wild's Bobby Brink Faces Former Team Almost Immediately

Reunions are always great after the trade deadline.

Or, in the case of the Minnesota Wild's trade deadline acquisition...

Raiders must avoid this trend

The Las Vegas Raiders have kicked off the 2026 offseason by spending in free agency and it will continue.

Can Ezequiel Tovar anchor the Rockies at shortstop? 

Playing shortstop is a point of pride. Even now, years later, it still visits me in dreams — the slow chopper that turns into a barehand play; the diving backhand deep in the hole; the thrill of a perfectly timed double play. Shortstop lives at the heart of the diamond. Every ground ball feels like it might […]
