Pencils down, general managers. The teams you have now assembled will be the ones you’re married to for the rest of the season. For Edmonton Oilers general manager Stan Bowman, his work was all completed in the days leading up to the trade deadline, making two separate trades with the Chicago Blackhawks: one to acquire…

You would be hard-pressed to find a better and more loyal fanbase out there in the wide world of sport than that of the Chicago Bears. It is far more rare, however, to find a Bears fan that is accustomed to success when it comes to the NFL Draft. The 2025 NFL Draft was one […]
Go get ‘em, Shōta.
The White Sox hit the road to face a Mariners team that’s a whole lot better than its spring record, so they may be doing a whole lot of experimenting so far. The Sox can hope the experimenting continues, which is likely given all the players the Mariners have on international rosters at the moment. […]
Rise and shine A’s fans! We got two for one this fine Saturday afternoon with the A’s splitting up and taking on two separate squads. One half of the team will head on over to visit the Chicago Cubs for another exhibition game while the other half heads to Las Vegas to take on the […]
The Edmonton Oilers have been searching for answers to their leaky defence all season. Stan Bowman believes he may have found them, making a pair of deals with the Chicago Blackhawks this week that brought in Jason Dickinson, Connor Murphy, and Colton Dach. Both Murphy and Dickinson are proven defensive stalwarts, while the 23-year-old Dach…

This week, we asked you which White Sox rookie you are most excited to see on the South Side in 2026. Each player in the survey stands a feasible chance of getting at least a September cup of coffee with the club. Braden Montgomery is the heir apparent to center or right field, and has […]
1890 Pioneering reliever and spitballer Dave Danforth was born, in Granger, Texas. A relative rarity as a college-educated (Baylor University) player in the 1910s, Danforth was signed by the A’s in 1911, and while bouncing back and forth between Philadelphia and minor-league Baltimore, Danforth completed a dentistry degree at the University of Maryland. After two […]
On February 20th in 2015, Colorado Avalanche defenseman Brad Stuart flipped a 92 foot center ice wrist shot past Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Corey Crawford with just over five minutes remaining in the final frame at the United Center. Crawford's miscue came as the third goal allowed in just three minutes, breaking a 1-1 tie through 51 minutes. To be fair, the preceding pair were
In a team statement on Saturday morning, the Blackhawks announced the death of former player and broadcaster Troy Murray. He was 63 years old.

Cubs catcher Moisés Ballesteros made three ABS challenges in Friday night’s 3-0 Cubs loss to the Padres, and got all of them right. As you know, Ballesteros has previously been known as a catcher who’s probably better off as a DH. It appears, to me at least, that being good at ABS challenges is a […]
Ben Brown didn’t exactly put his best foot forward, allowing three runs in 2.1 innings against the Padres. He was a little wild. The Cubs had those special bats with ball-avoidance radar. One run would have been enough to defeat them. *means autoplay on, (directions to remove for Firefox and Chrome). {$} means paywall. {$} means limited views. Italics are […]
The Vancouver Canucks snapped a nine-game losing streak on the road with a 6-3 win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday night at the United Center. While the game wasn’t as dreadful as the score suggests, let’s recap this very winnable game for the Hawks. Ryan Donato opened up scoring just over a minute into the game after collecting his own dump-in. GOAL: What a move by Ryan Donato to open the scoring early. pic.twitter.com/1dbZ3yGdRf — BHF (@BlackhawksFocus) March 7, 2026 ...
CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Charge continued their impressive season on Friday as they cruised to an easy 125-99 win over the shorthanded Windy City Bulls thanks to standout performances from Riley Minix and Tristan Enaruna. The victory pulls the Charge within a half game of the top spot in the conference. G League success is […]
For the fourth consecutive trade deadline day, the Edmonton Oilers didn’t make a trade. Of course, the Oilers made their moves earlier this week, acquiring Connor Murphy, Jason Dickinson, and Colton Dach from the Chicago Blackhawks for a 2028 second, a 2027 first, and Andrew Mangiapane in two separate trades. Overall, those weren’t bad trades…
