We haven't heard his name much at all on the rumor mill this year, but with the Chicago Blackhawks ' recent tumble to the bottom of the standings, Tyler Bertuzzi is now starting to make the rounds. Insider Elliotte Friedman suggested on The Fan Hockey Show on Monday that the Hawks could look to solidify themselves in the running for a top draft pick in 2026, by trading off a high-producing veteran. Chicago has lost six of their seven games since Connor Bedard went down to injury (and the...

Throughout recent years, Lakers fans have learned to keep at least a little bit of attention on South Bay throughout the season. In some cases, it’s to watch a player like Bronny James develop in his time with the team. Other times, it was to see potential undrafted gems develop into potential role players for […]

Which Chicago Bulls are the “real” Chicago Bulls?
On the one hand, Chicago has already put together a pair of five-game win streaks thanks to the second-fastest pace in the league (103.6) and a pass-happy pace-and-space offensive attack (their 29.5 assists per game rank fifth).
On the other hand, the Bulls’ defense has been… porous. At its worst, Chicago has posted a seven-game losing skid that threatened to derail its season, falling to several lottery teams. Chicago’s 122.0 opponen...

Even though the Blackhawks played back-to-back days coming out of the Christmas break, they still practices on Monday. And… there was a lot going on.
Some good news right out of the gate: Connor Bedard was on the ice before the rest of his teammates. He did not shoot the puck, but was skating and doing some puck handling stuff. Blackhawks head coach Jeff Blashill said there is no change to Bedard’s timeline; he’ll still be evaluated after the calendar flips to 2026. But he was on the ice ...

Although Alex Bregman is one of the most highly sought-after free agents this winter, his market has been fairly narrow and well-defined for a while now. And yet, lately, the specifics have begun to evolve.
A few weeks ago, Bregman’s market was pretty unanimously boiled down to three teams: (1) The Cubs, who made him an offer last offseason, (2) the Tigers, who made him an offer last offseason, and (3) the incumbent Red Sox, who signed him last offseason. Today, that looks a little differ...
