Most Cleveland Browns fans are in one of two camps coming out of their Week 9 bye week: “Please fast forward to the 2026 NFL draft” or “Please do something, anything to make this offense better.” With the New York Jets next up on the schedule, the latter could happen in much the way that […]
You can only try to come up with so many different ways to say the same thing, but maybe it’s the best to make it extremely simple: The Philadelphia Flyers had a very bad weekend and head coach Rick Tocchet is asking some questions of his roster. After losing a disheartening game against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, the very next day the Flyers hosted the NHL’s worst team in the Calgary Flames. And they applied almost zero offensive pressure in the 2-1 loss — a performance that is...
The Calgary Flames have had a very poor start to the season and some things are going to change. The first thing that is going to happen is that players start being moved. Two players in particular have been called into question about their fits with the team moving forward. Frank Seravalli said, "I think you'd have to begin to have the conversation about whether or not you think (Morgan) Frost and/or (Joel) Farabee have fit." Considering the age and production of Frost and Farabee in comparis...
The Rangers finally have chemistry. And now Trocheck’s return could test it. Should Sullivan tinker or stay the course?
The Tennessee Titans are on a bye this week. That means we will get a Sunday where we don’t have to pay attention to bad football. The Titans dropped to 1-8 with their 27-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The New York Jets were this week, so the Titans moved up to second in […]
The old saying from Super Bowl-winning head coach Bill Parcells infamously goes, “You are what your record says you are.” Well, the St. Louis Blues are 3-8-2, losers of seven straight games. Coach Jim Montgomery called out the team’s defensive errors last Tuesday against Detroit as “shocking.” “It’s shocking, to be honest. The amount of…
Over the past two seasons, Dawson Mercer has not been able to reach the heights of his breakout 2022-23 campaign. That season, he posted 27 goals and 56 points, all while dominating the run of play on a line with Nico Hischier and Tomas Tatar for much of the season. It was an excellent sophomore […]
Mike and Dan recap a busy week in which the Islanders stayed afloat thanks in large part to record-breaking super rookie Matthew Schaefer. The week started very poorly, with another blown lead followed by another blowout to a familiar bully. But what looked like a new bottom gave way to an unexpected rebound. A comeback […]
After a week off to watch and wait, Iowa is poised to return to the friendly confines of Kinnick Stadium on Saturday as they play host to the #6 Oregon Ducks. Like Iowa, Oregon comes to Iowa City fresh off a bye with two weeks to prepare. The Ducks come into the week riding a […]
One of the things for which I am truly grateful when it comes to writing this blog is the opportunity to see and hear things before the general public does. Normally, this involves me swearing to uphold my end of the bargain by keeping specific information off this blog, but that's fairly easy to do since I appreciate my sources immensely. That being said, the title and byline written to the left was typed by Adam Waxman of The Hockey News on his October 27 article for the website. Adam may ne...

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has spoken about the emotional return of former teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold to Anfield, as the right-back prepares to face his old club in Real Madrid colors in tomorrow night’s Champions League clash — though, due to his health, may not appear in the match at all. Alexander-Arnold, who joined Real […]
I’ll be honest with you guys, I didn’t catch much hockey the past seven days. These west coast trips only get tougher as you get older, apparently. For that, I FEEL SHAME! Anywho, the Red Wings still have a game left on this road trip, but are already bringing home six points thanks to wins in St. Louis, Los Angeles, and San Jose. Call it luck, call it grit… Call it whatever you want. I think we can all agree that last year’s early-season west coast trip pales in comparison to this one. T...
The last week was something of a roller coaster for the Philadelphia Flyers. It started off with a thrilling shootout win over the stupid and dumb Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday, followed by a 4-1 victory over the Nashville Predators Thursday night to secure their third consecutive win. Since then, though, the vibes have not been immaculate. The Flyers have dropped two straight games, including 5-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs Saturday night and a 2-1 loss to the Calgary Flames on Sund...
There are four games in the next six nights, William Nylander and Scott Laughton are potentially returning soon, and hopefully, Joseph Woll isn’t far behind. With the first month of the season now behind us, we’ll see if the Leafs can replicate their typically strong November play (they are 1-0 so far). We will soon […] The post Leafs Notebook: Nick Robertson making his case in the top six, the David Kampf situation, coping with the Chris Tanev injury, and the decisions at forward with help...
Biceps Biceps Biceps. Seriously. When Michael Lorenzen walks off the mound and gets a close-up on the broadcast, that’s all I can see. The man’s got muscles upon muscles in those arms. I assume that’s why he’s still pumping mid-90s heat as he enters his mid-30s. The Royals acquired Lorenzen from the Texas Rangers in […]
The NFL trade deadline arrives at 4:00 pm Eastern on Tuesday. Traditionally the NFL’s deadline has been quieter than those in other major professional sports leagues. Activity has picked up, however, in recent years. The Jets find themselves with a 1-7 record as we approach the deadline. The team has a number of veteran players […]
The Milwaukee Bucks, now 4-2 after losing to the Sacramento Kings, return to Gainbridge Fieldhouse tonight to play the 1-5 Indiana Pacers for the first time since being knocked out of last year’s NBA Playoffs by them. Meanwhile, after losing their first five games, the Pacers notched their first win of the season on Saturday, […]
Evgeni Malkin is making the rumors hard to ignore. At 39, he has opened the season among the league leaders in scoring and looks more like a prime playmaker than a player nearing retirement. That surge has revived a familiar question for March 6. Could the Pittsburgh Penguins explore an Evgeni Malkin trade if the standings turn and a contender comes calling, or will one last run in black and gold win out? Why a Malkin Trade Could Happen Multiple insiders have noted both t...
The Edmonton Oilers have been linked to Kiefer Sherwood thanks to Edmonton Journal insider David Staples , who amplified Bob Stauffer’s on-air speculation that Sherwood could be an ideal middle-six target if the Vancouver Canucks cannot extend him. The appeal is obvious for the Oilers: Sherwood’s contract sits at a tidy $1.5 million AAV, he delivered a career-best 19 goals and 40 points in 2024–25, and he has erupted with nine goals in his first 12 games this season. Add a heavy fo...
