Built on defense, development, and patience, Drew Fortescue now gets his opportunity with the Rangers at just the right time.
They want to get to third place in the division, and they have a lot of work to get that done.
Former Pittsburgh Pirate and National League MVP, Andrew McCutchen, will be on the opening day roster for the Texas Rangers. This will be McCutchen’s 18th MLB season. After going most of the offseason with little to no communication from Pittsburgh’s front office McCutchen signed a minor league deal with the Rangers on March 6. The […]
He still has some time before he’s a full-time member of the Philadelphia Flyers, but for the time being, 2024 second-round draft pick Jack Berglund’s development is heading in the right direction according to his current head coach in the SHL. Cam Abbott, who became Farjestads BK’s head coach in January after the team fired the previous coach, briefly discussed the center’s progress in the relatively short time he’s been coaching the 19-year-old native of Karlstad, Sweden. In an intervie...

The 24-year-old has turned his season around, and the Senators find themselves back in playoff positioning largely because of it.
The Oilers needed a win on Tuesday to avoid falling into a three-game skid, but nobody needed one more than Tristan Jarry. The goaltender Edmonton acquired to stabilize things between the pipes had been pushed into a backup role earlier this month following a 7-2 loss to the Dallas Stars. The former Penguin posted a…
A lot has been made about the misery that the Philadelphia Flyers season has been, but it doesn’t take long to realize that it could be a lot worse. Such as, not having your next two first-round draft picks and potentially sinking your entire organization into a state of mediocrity despite having some of the best players in the world on your hockey team. Famously, the Flyers do own the Toronto Maple Leafs’ 2027 first-round draft pick after somehow convincing them that forward Scott Laught...
Stephon Castle is having himself a season. He has followed up his Rookie of the Year with improvements to every aspect of this game. Averaging 16.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 7.1 assists sounds great, but for a player like Castle, it just doesn’t tell the whole story. Currently, he doesn’t shoot particularly well, averaging a […]
Barre, VT – The North East Short Track Network (NESTN) has announced today their plans to offer a subscription format to their already popular Pay-Per-View lineup for the 2026 season. While the Pay-Per-View option that built… The post “Watch it Your Way”; North East Short Track Network (NESTN) Offers Subscription Options first appeared on The MotorSportsNews.Net(work) .
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous about Tuesday’s game against the Mammoth, given how poorly the Edmonton Oilers had played in their last two games, but to our collective delight, we saw a much different team against Utah. Unlike what we got against Florida and Tampa Bay, the Oilers were much tighter…
Over the next few months, we’ll be breaking down all of the players added by the Jets during free agency and in the legal tampering window. We continue today with defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick. The 29-year old Fitzpatrick is listed at 6’1” and 202 pounds and was the 11th overall pick out of Alabama in […]
Your #20 Oregon Ducks faced off against the UC San Diego Tritons on Tuesday night, looking to keep the momentum going after a successful 8 game homestand, in which they went 7-1. It was a pitchers’ duel to start off the ballgame, with Oregon’s first baserunner not coming until the 3rd inning. Oregon would finally […]
For a second there, it seemed like everything was breaking their way. When the Flyers headed into the locker room at the end of the first period, with a 1-0 lead over the Blue Jackets and a host of their competition for playoff spots in the Eastern Conference losing their games at the same time, it seemed like they had all the momentum. Sean Couturier scored his eighth goal of the year while looking like his old self, and the Flyers largely dominated a period that could h...
Morning, all! Shawn McFarland completes his prospect countdown at number 1 with Sebastian Walcott, who became the first teenager to start at shortstop in Frisco since Jurickson Profar… and if that’s not a good omen, I don’t know what is. McFarland also has the best pitches in the Ranger rotation as voted on by the […]
Now that free agency has officially started, we can look ahead toward the 2026 NFL Draft with renewed focus. This weekly series will take a closer look at some of the prospects the Carolina Panthers could select in the 2026 iteration of the Draft. In this series, we’ll only be looking at prospects the Panthers […]
For the first time in a decade, the Maple Leafs are playing out a stretch run with no playoff implications. While they haven’t been mathematically eliminated quite yet, the Leafs have been a dead team skating since the week after the Olympic break, when they vowed to make a late playoff push and then immediately face-planted to the tune of eight straight losses. It’s over. This team stinks. Hello darkness my old friend, and all that. But that’s the twist this time, because it’s been ten years ...
The NHL playoff race is reaching it’s peak this year, no where more than in the competitive and tight Eastern Conference. While the West is something of a pillow fight in the Pacific and a turtle race in general (Nashville is on a statistical pace for 89 points and currently holding a playoff spot), the […]
Though Colorado Avalanche fans tried to forget everything about the 7-2 loss against the Pittsburgh Penguins last week (and a big win last night helps ease that memory), one positive was the Erik Johnson experience between the benches. The former Avalanche defenseman is flourishing in his new television career which seems to be a natural […]
We are less than one month until the 2026 NFL Draft takes place in Pittsburgh as prospects hope to have their name called that weekend. And as fate would have it, the next lineage of future ProCanes exhibited their talents in Coral Gables at their Pro Day on Monday. While the coverage was hard to find on […]
From trade-day gamble to franchise legend, Mika Zibanejad’s 1,000-game milestone cements his place in Rangers history.
It was a milestone game for the Edmonton Oilers in their 5-2 win over the Utah Mammoth on Tuesday night. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins kicked things off by scoring his 800th NHL point, assisting on Jack Roslovic’s first goal of the game, only to be usurped by two big milestones for Connor McDavid. He hit both of…

Few things fill NFL fans with more hope than first round picks. It’s part of our nature as football fans to pull up our favorite team’s list of upcoming picks then selectively scour Football Reference to see which Hall of Famers were drafted somewhere near where our team picks. For us as Panthers fans, that’s […]
Let’s take a look at a few key stats for the New Jersey Devils since they returned from the Olympic Break late last month. The Devils have a 8-5-0 record. In terms of quality of opponent, their most impressive wins are over Boston and Los Angeles, two teams fighting for their playoff lives, and last […]
