For the second consecutive trade deadline it appears that general manager Julien BriseBois is bringing a player back into the organization. Last year it was Yanni Gourde. This year it’s Corey Perry. Corey Perry to Tampa Bay from LA — Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC) March 6, 2026 The rumored cost is a second-round pick. Which, based on some of the other deals made over the last 24 hours seems to be about right. What was once thought to be a buyer’s market has decidedly swun...
Well, that’s not the news you’re looking for heading into a tough road trip.

Okay. Deep breaths. Today’s the day. Jayson Tatum finally returns to the basketball court in a Boston Celtics uniform. He really is an anomaly, isn’t he? Jayson Tatum: the 19-year-old superstar, champion, iron man. The guy who loves this game so much that coaches have to fight him to get him to take a night […]
Over the last few days, it certainly seemed like Nick Foligno was going to be traded at some point before the deadline, but the destination was the real mystery.

It is time to apply all the lessons that Marquette men’s lacrosse has learned to this point of the season. Marquette is 2-3 on the year, with all three losses coming in relatively competitive contests against ranked opponents. Maybe the final margin doesn’t look so hot, but each time, the Golden Eagles were running with […]
The Los Angeles Kings have unexpectedly traded forward Corey Perry back to one of his old stomping grounds, the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Kings have traded Corey Perry to the Tampa Bay Lightning for a 2nd RD pick — Pierre LeBrun (@PierreVLeBrun) March 6, 2026 The Kings receive a 2028 second-round pick in return.

The first thing that popped into my mind when I heard the news about Jayson Tatum was, I suspect, the first thing that popped into the minds of many of you. “Anticipation” by Carly Simon. No? Well, bear with me anyway. Anticipation for Tatum’s return has reached a fever pitch over the last month or […]
Nick Foligno has been a tremendous veteran leader and mentor for the young Chicago Blackhawks the past three seasons, but he has said his goodbyes this morning and is on his way to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for future considerations (i.e. nothing, really). The Blackhawks are trading captain Nick Foligno to the Minnesota Wild where he can play with his brother Marcus 👊🏻 pic.twitter.com/A9mNQDCx5m — Nasty Knuckles (@NastyKnuckles) March 6, 2026 The Hawks did Foligno a solid, as he'll...
For most of the season, the Minnesota Timberwolves have desperately searched for quality play from their bench.

Karl-Anthony Towns is an enigma, a polarizing figure, and also happens to hold the keys to just how good the Knicks can be this season. KAT possesses a rare combination of talent and size that is matched by only a handful of basketball players in the world, and on many a night, we see plenty […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-41) head to the Garden Friday evening to square off against the near-league-leading Boston Celtics (41-21).

On this second night of a back-to-back, Dallas […]

John Schneider has turned in yet another crystal ball moment. For a second consecutive time he has moved on from the Seattle Seahawks’ starting quarterback at an opportune moment.

Jayson Tatum last played for the Boston Celtics 298 days ago, when his 42-point playoff masterpiece against the New York Knicks preceded what would become a nine-plus-month rehabilitation from a torn right Achilles tendon.
