Penguins coach Dan Muse told reporters that Monday was a travel day for Crosby, who received his silver medal after Canada’s loss to Team USA on […]
That's Wild After Team USA took home the gold medal, a whole lot of people are coming out and saying that Minnesota Wild general manager Bill Guerin had his fingerprints all over it and truly deserves a whole lot of credit for finishing on top of the hockey world. Will it translate to the Wi...

*Let’s all enjoy today, friends. For tomorrow the Philadelphia Flyers will return to action and we will once again be forced to both perceive and contemplate them. Or not care at all; dealer’s choice, really. Anyhoo, Trevor Zegras had a real good time celebrating the Team USA gold from home. NHL players: they’re just like us! [ BSH ] *As the Regular Hockey kicks back off, it presents an opportunity for two Flyers who have absolutely stunk this season to try and turn things around. [ The A...
Last season, Bentley had its first 20-win season, first Atlantic Hockey Tournament championship, and first NCAA Tournament appearance in program history. Those were heady times.But this season, as it approaches 20 wins again (18-9-5), has been about not stopping that momentum.To that end, Bentley took another step, and maybe the hardest one yet, when it defeated RIT last weekend to wrap up the Atlantic...
In 2013, the NCAA Men's Ice Committee instituted home/road weighting to the criteria used to select teams for the NCAA Tournament. More specifically, the RPI component of the Pairwise was adjusted depending upon whether the game was played at home or away.With the change to use straight NPI this year, that concept was largely carried over. A win at home counts less than a win on the road, and vice...

There may be no sporting event I love more than the Winter Olympics. Yes, probably even more than the World Cup. The Summer Olympics are great, too, but I absolutely adore the Winter games: from the basics like (alpine and nordic) skiing and (NHL returns!) hockey (even as Slovakia ran out of luck and talent […]
People often talk about the relentless nature of the Championship these days, although back in 1996 the second tier could be every bit as demanding. Peter Reid’s Sunderland found this out for themselves during a hectic period that included a long slog to Portsmouth and back, followed by a midweek test against Ipswich Town, and […]
New episode of The Fergie Fledglings! Colin, Nathan and Pauly recap the highs of Manchester United’s 1-0 win over Everton that concluded shortly before hitting record, as well as the safe hands of Senne Lammens and the break glass in case of emergencyness of Benjamin Sesko.

Generally, I operate under a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy regarding an athlete's political beliefs. As a careful observer of the hit HBO documentary "Heated Rivalry," I found that absolutely zero of the players were reading "The State and Revolution*" or speaking complimentarily of Che Guevara.

The fallout from the first leg between Real Madrid and Benfica has taken another turn — and this time, it ends without consequences for Fede Valverde. Benfica confirmed that UEFA has rejected the formal complaint they submitted against the Uruguayan midfielder. The Portuguese club had accused Valverde of violent conduct during last week’s Champions League […]
The Nazem Kadri sweepstakes have taken a big turn, and it sounds like the Calgary Flames are now fully committed to moving Kadri ahead of the Mar.6 trade deadline. Earlier this season, Flames' ownership had stepped in to request Kadri not be moved as they were considering the new arena opening in a couple of years, and now with how underperforming the team has been this season, it's all systems go on the trade front. Kadri, 35, is signed through the 2029 season at $7 million AAV, and he ...
The Edmonton Oilers lineup on Wednesday ought to be interesting.
