A Disaster in the Making for the Eagles

It was in London, on the eve of a game, that the Philadelphia Eagles discovered the problem. Preventive tests Jalen Hurts underwent on Saturday, after the flight to England, revealed a blood clot. The quarterback played the next day anyway, but he won't be in uniform on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.
The story began on October 4, against the Los Angeles Rams. During that game, Hurts was struck in the calf by a cleat. He nevertheless participated normally in practices on the following Wedn

This afternoon, the Tampa Bay Lightning faced off against the Nashville Predators. And amid everything that's been happening since last night with Nikita Kucherov, we were watching this game closely.
We were wondering how the Russian, who continues to play for his team, would perform.
And in the end, Kucherov was… Kucherov. The Russian winger, true to form, had a fairly productive day on the ice, logging the second-most ice time among his teammates (23:41), behind Jake Guentzel (25:56). Jon Co

How will the Tampa Bay Lightning handle the Nikita Kucherov situation? That's the big question right now.
The team saw its Russian superstar request a trade last night. Kucherov (who is in the final year of his contract) clearly does not want to sign a new deal with Tampa Bay, which puts Julien BriseBois in a difficult position.
Unlike others, he requested a trade while his contract is expiring and without threatening (at least for now) to go on strike. That makes it a bit easier to handle, let'

Over the past few days, the Milwaukee Brewers won the World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays. It was a rather convincing five-game victory for the National League champions.
They were very, very rarely in trouble during the series.
That said, both teams deserve credit for their great season. Both won their respective leagues—both in the regular season and in the playoffs—and played some great baseball.
So, naturally, there are already plenty of teams that will want to replicate that formula

There was a lot of complaining two weeks ago when the team left too many points on the table after squandering two-goal leads.
Both collectively and individually, there was frequent talk of a “lack of maturity.”
Add to that Demidov's injury, along with those of Suzuki and Matheson—not to mention Dobes' lackluster performances—and some people were almost starting to dream about Landon Dupont, while others—the critics and haters—were spouting their usual taunts about certain players, t

Nikita Kucherov is the name on everyone's lips in the NHL right now. We learned last night that the Russian asked the Lightning to trade him… which took just about everyone by surprise.
We knew his contract was expiring and he didn't have a new deal in the works… but that didn't necessarily suggest such an outcome.
And of course, the big question is which team Kucherov will continue his career with. Many clubs right now are dreaming of having the Russian join their ranks.
Since yesterday, th

Everyone is eager to weigh in on the situation involving Nikita Kucherov, who has obviously sparked a flurry of rumors throughout the National Hockey League with his trade request.
Whether it's renowned analysts and insiders or just fans, everyone wants to weigh in.
And of course, even though Kucherov is one of the best players in the world—and even in history—he remains a controversial figure, especially in Montreal following his various comments during the playoff series between the two te

On the trade deadline, the Boston Red Sox called the Cincinnati Reds to discuss Elly De La Cruz.
In fact, it was more than that. The Boston club made a competitive offer to acquire the shortstop's services.
And even though the Reds obviously said no, it may still have opened a door.
Why? Because the Cincinnati Reds likely know that at some point, trading De La Cruz might become necessary.
The Ohio team tried to make him the highest-paid player in franchise history last year, but Scott Boras advi

From Last Place to First
The Edmonton Elks have decided to reward the architect of their spectacular turnaround. The team announced Friday that it had granted a contract extension to its vice president of football operations and general manager, Ed Hervey. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Returning to Edmonton in November 2024 for a second stint as head of football operations, Hervey has orchestrated a remarkable turnaround. In one year, he has led the Elks from last place to first

Bad news for the Canadiens.
We learned this morning that Mike Matheson, a key member of the team's defensive corps, will miss two weeks of action. This is due to the lower-body injury that kept him out of Thursday night's game in Dallas.
The team will therefore have to navigate the coming weeks without one of its defensive pillars.Mike Matheson out two weeks with a lower-body injury

The Canadiens provided an update on Ivan Demidov.
As reported by Eric Engels, the Canadiens player is still on schedule. Since the initial estimate was two to four weeks—and four weeks will be this coming Tuesday—it seems likely that the player is truly nearing a return.
We already suspected as much, but now we have a new clue that allows us to confirm it. Checked with the Habs, who say Demidov is still “on his timeline.”
He was projected to miss a maximum of four weeks, though these est

Over the past hour, the topic of the Canadiens' lineup for tonight's game has been the focus of attention. Seeing Nick Suzuki practice with the team (and looking pretty sharp) has raised some questions.
The captain, who was expected to miss two to four weeks, seemed to have a chance to return after just nine days.
But it won't be quite time yet for Suzuki: the Canadiens' captain stayed behind for extra work after practice, and Martin St-Louis confirmed that his captain won't play tonight.Nick Su

The Montreal Canadiens are preparing this morning for their first home game back at the Bell Centre in front of their fans, after winning four straight road games in the regular season without their captain, Nick Suzuki.
The Habs will face the Pittsburgh Penguins starting at 7 p.m., and between now and then, we expect some updates on the injured players as well as on the starting goaltender.
Here's the latest.
The big news from this morning's practice is that Nick Suzuki participated in the regu

After a 68-day search, the Houston Astros have finally found their new general manager, Randy Flores.
Flores, 51, cut his teeth in the St. Louis Cardinals organization. After a playing career in the majors, the California native became the Cardinals' director of scouting in 2015 before being promoted in 2018 to assistant general manager under John Mozeliak.
It's safe to say that learning the ropes alongside a man like Mozeliak and within an organization like the Cardinals is one of the best scho

A Third Call for Applications
NFL Canada continues its commitment to community football across the country. The league is relaunching its NFL Forward Pass program, which will once again award three $25,000 grants to youth football organizations this year.
The program aims to remove barriers that prevent young people from playing football, whether it's contact football or flag football. The goal is to make the sport more accessible and inclusive across Canada.

The hot topic right now in the hockey world is Nikita Kucherov's trade request, which was made public yesterday by several reputable sources, including Elliotte Friedman.
This has obviously sent shockwaves through the National Hockey League, given that Kucherov is one of the best players in the world and is clearly among the top five in the NHL.
We were all surprised by this news, and we're now eagerly awaiting further developments.
As of the latest reports, Kucherov—who is in the final year o

Dylan Larkin has officially been upstaged when it comes to the hottest story in the National Hockey League, as Elliotte Friedman literally dropped a bombshell yesterday by announcing that Nikita Kucherov had requested a trade.

The World Series has barely ended, and several Major League Baseball general managers are already set to begin long workdays as they set out to improve their teams.
Among them is Ross Atkins, general manager of the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Jays' top executive is in for a busy November, as every year since taking the helm in 2015, he has been deeply involved in most deals involving high-profile free agents. This offseason will be no exception.
Let's recall the Shohei Ohtani saga—he was set to set

The Colts Are Changing Tactics
The tide seems to have turned in Indianapolis. The Colts are now reportedly willing to trade their star running back, Jonathan Taylor, according to reports from ESPN and the NFL Network published on Saturday.
Just a few days ago, the team did not appear to have any intention of parting ways with Taylor, despite interest from several teams. The situation has changed, and discussions are reportedly now underway with several teams.

It was a fairly quiet Friday night yesterday in the National Hockey League, with only three games on the schedule.
Still, we were treated to some great highlights, as a total of 22 goals were scored by the six teams playing in the league's three games.
Here's what stands out.

New police documents shed troubling light on the Josh Jacobs case. According to records released Friday evening by the Hobart-Lawrence Police Department in Wisconsin, three other women have contacted investigators to report incidents of physical abuse they attribute to the Green Bay Packers running back.
The file, which is heavily redacted, was released along with body camera and patrol car footage showing the player's arrest last May.

Alexander Is Confident He’ll Get a Call
Davis Alexander makes no secret of it: he expects to get a call from an NFL team once the CFL playoffs are over. His teammate Tyson Philpot, for his part, is hoping for it with all his heart. But the two Montreal Alouettes stars insist that this possibility in no way diminishes their commitment to the team and the city.
The two players agreed to discuss the matter during the Alouettes' bye week, as the team awaits word on who they'll face in the Eastern

I don’t know if the Lightning would be willing to trade Nikita Kucherov within their division.

The biggest news in the NHL right now involves Nikita Kucherov, who has announced that he will not sign a new contract with the Lightning and has asked his general manager, Julien BriseBois, to trade him.
To the surprise of many, the most recent NHL Most Valuable Player could soon be playing for a new team.
However, even though the news has been made public, BriseBois has the luxury of being patient in this situation and ensuring he gets the most in return for his star player.

Things have just changed in the NHL.
Nikita Kucherov has asked the Tampa Bay Lightning to trade him. He has no intention of signing a new contract with the team and wants a fresh start right away.
Players are gaining more and more power.
It's easy to conclude that the Tampa Bay Lightning and the player's agent (Dan Milstein) were likely unable to agree on contract terms.
And when Julien BriseBois negotiates, he doesn't hold back.
