Jalen Nailor tabbed as “underrated” free agent signing by Las Vegas Raiders
The Las Vegas Raiders raised some eyebrows during free agency by signing former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor to a three-year, $35.03 million contract.

Exactly As Designed
Winnipeg's last remaining professional hockey team was facing elimination in Game Four on the road tonight, so the Manitoba Moose needed a big effort to keep their season going. Twice they had fought off elimination against the Milwaukee Admirals, but the Grand Rapids Griffins were an entirely different monster.

Bottom Six Minutes: Habs’ depth stands tall once again
Following up a game one in which they couldn’t get much going, the Montreal Canadiens were back in Buffalo Sabres’ territory looking to earn a split of their road games before taking the series back to the Bell Centre. This time, they got going early and didn’t look back, earning their highest margin of victory in these playoffs with a 5-1 win. While their top line played much better than they had in the first game, it was once again their depth players who did most of the damage in the win. ...
