The fact that Kristen Stewart doesn’t have a publicist who bans questions about Twilight is one of the coolest things about her. Like Robert Pattinson, she doesn’t shy away from or lean into Twilight, she just lets it play out.
I’m not a Robsten truther but I do think she and Rob will work together again. Not because of their previous personal relationship, but because of their kooky taste.View this post on InstagramA post shared by Condé Nast Traveler (@cntraveler)

The Brewers Are Different
We're no longer living in last year's nightmare.A year ago, the Brewers might have lost a game like they did in Game 1. But this postseason, they don't feel there's an obstacle they can't overcome. “That'sjust Brewers baseball.”My story for @YahooSports on Milwaukee's NLCS Game 1 victory. https://t.co/p3sRemPpWW

Um, are you okay, Doby?
I wondered that after seeing what he said after today's practice.
Because it's… weird?
Basically, Jakub Dobes was asked how he felt about Samuel Montembeault's return—Montembeault is likely to rejoin the team soon, considering his injury isn't (very) serious.
And Doby, who needs to prove himself to earn more ice time, mentioned that it's more fun with three goalies on the roster. Is it just me, or… is that a weird comment?It's funny to have all three g

Connor Hellebuyck’s situation in Winnipeg is taking on enormous proportions.
He decided not to report to his team's training camp and has been suspended (without pay) ever since.
And now, the Jets find themselves in a strange situation… because the team can't seem to find a partner to dance with when it comes to a trade.
According to Elliotte Friedman, this means the goaltender may have no choice but to return to action with the Jets… even if that won't satisfy anyone. The fa

This season, Junior Caminero posted a .276 batting average with 42 home runs and 101 RBIs. This marked the second consecutive year he managed to total more than 40 home runs and 100 RBIs, while maintaining a slugging percentage above the .500 mark.
This should place him second behind Yordan Alvarez in the race for the American League MVP award—even though I believe he deserves to win it.
As the above statistics show, the 23-year-old is undoubtedly one of the best and most electrifying youn

An Evening with Zadie SmithWhen: Thursday, Oct. 15, 7:30 p.m.Where: Chan Centre for the Performing Arts, 6265 Crescent Rd., UBCTickets: From $30 at tickets.ubc.caIn Art For Our Sakes, an essay published in June in The New York Review of Books, Zadie Smith argues that making art need not address a political crisis directly to have social or political value. In a culture increasingly shaped by machine thinking and propaganda, she sees the human act of creating art as meaningful in itself.It was a

Florian Xhekaj was present for the start of the Canadiens’ practice this morning.
But he had to leave the rink early because he wasn't feeling 100% comfortable.
The young player is clearly dealing with an injury. And we seem to have an idea of what caused it.
In last Thursday's game against the Preds, the youngest of the Xhekaj brothers was on the ice with just over a minute left in the game. The puck went out of the zone, and Florian tried to check a Predators player who was near the Cana

Did you know that Shohei Ohtani’s last home run was on August 18?That means the Dodgers star has gone nearly two months without hitting a single home run.
Of course, everyone knows the Japanese player is injured. He should have missed games well before mid-September, when he was placed on the injured list.
But since he's a proud man, he wants to stay on the field, and he returned in time for the playoffs. That's to his credit.
The problem? Right now, he's not helping his team's cause at al

The Philadelphia Eagles are facing yet another problem with their running game.
Will Shipley reportedly suffered a partial tear of the plantar fascia during the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. According to ESPN reporter Adam Schefter, this injury could force the young running back to miss several weeks of action.
This latest setback complicates matters for Philadelphia, which is already dealing with several key absences among its running backs. The team may therefore have to adjust its offensi

It was a weekend full of sports action for our professional teams.
CF Montréal was leading 1–0 with 92 minutes on the clock in Toronto… and somehow managed to lose 2–1. Goals in the 93rd and 95th minutes!
One of the team's highest-paid players even thought it was a good idea to “like” a post highlighting TFC's comeback. And this wasn't even the first time he'd done this: he'd also “liked” a post claiming that some of CF Montréal's recently

The Canadiens practiced at the Bell Centre this morning.
It wasn't a game day: the team was taking its annual group photo, which is why practice was scheduled at the Bell Centre instead of Brossard.
Anyway, what stood out about this practice?
First off, it's worth noting that Mike Matheson and Oliver Kapanen were absent.
Both players were given a day of treatment, as the Habs announced on X. For Kapanen, this is a special case: we're still waiting for him to return to action… but we know

The Los Angeles Dodgers gave up a lot of prospects to acquire Tarik Skubal at the trade deadline.
And it paid off, as the left-hander was brilliant in the first game of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves, pitching six innings, allowing one run on two hits while striking out seven batters.
This followed a string of excellent performances he'd put together since mid-August, during which he pitched into the sixth inning in eight of his last nine starts and allowed just o

Jahmyr Gibbs continues to make waves in the NFL.
The Detroit Lions running back took advantage of his team's victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday to score two touchdowns in a convincing 45–21 win. This performance allowed him to surpass American football legend Barry Sanders and set a new personal record before his 25th birthday.
Just a few years into his professional career, Gibbs is already proving that he can establish himself among the league's most productive players. His effe

Jacob Fowler started the season in the AHL because… the Canadiens didn’t want to go with three goalies, and Samuel Montembeault had earned his spot.
Jacob Fowler was called up because… Monty got injured.
Jacob Fowler played Thursday's game because… the Canadiens likely wanted to give someone other than Jakub Dobes a chance in net, and the team's true No. 2 had been injured the day before.

The Montreal Alouettes host the Saskatchewan Roughriders at Percival Molson Stadium for a highly anticipated Canadian Football League (CFL) matchup.This game, coming on the heels of the 112th Grey Cup, wraps up Thanksgiving weekend and promises a matchup between two teams with very different dynamics.
For Saskatchewan, it's been a tough stretch. The Roughriders are coming off three straight losses, including a defeat to the Calgary Stampeders in Week 18 of the season. The team will need to quick

It was a big weekend in Montreal. And I'm not just saying that because the Habs played with seven defensemen due to Florian Xhekaj's injury…
Jayden Struble was traded, and Kaiden Guhle returned to the lineup. That sparked discussions about the future of the Canadiens' blue line moving forward.
Jacob Fowler was sensational in net on Saturday night, bringing the talk of the infamous “love triangle” back into the spotlight.
But the main reason the Canadiens have been in the news

Last night, the Los Angeles Dodgers were in Milwaukee to face the Brewers in the first game of the National League Championship Series.
Early on, in a pitching duel between Jacob Misiorowski and Tarik Skubal, it became clear that the Brewers' starter didn't have as much control as the Brewers had hoped.
He wasn't bad, but getting three outs per inning—against a powerhouse team—wasn't going to be easy.
So the Dodgers took advantage. In the second inning, Shohei Ohtani scored on a sing

Last night, there wasn’t much action in the NHL. That’s typical for a Sunday night.
In fact, there were only three games on the schedule. But there are still a few things worth noting from today's three games in the Bettman league.

Late-game blunders, predictable matchups, and spectacular performances: Week 5 of the NFL provided plenty of fuel for both fans and critics.
Here are the ones who came out on top… and the others, as reported by The Ringer.
Loser: The Commanders' game sense
With 12 seconds left in overtime, Jayden Daniels just needed to get rid of the ball to set up a game-winning field goal. Instead, he collapsed to the ground, and time ran out. The result: a 27-27 tie against the Giants that feels like a

An interception by Kyle Hamilton dashed the Atlanta Falcons' hopes on Sunday night.
The Baltimore Ravens pulled off a 30-23 overtime victory, and they did it without their star quarterback, Lamar Jackson, who remains sidelined with an ankle injury.
In his first start of the season, Tyler Huntley rose to the occasion. The backup threw two touchdown passes before scoring the game-winning touchdown himself in overtime—a perfect ending to a night in which he was flawless.

The hockey season has barely begun, but that doesn’t mean teams aren’t active in the trade market to improve their rosters.
Other clubs might also try to turn things around by making a coaching change.
Here are the latest rumors from across the NHL.

For the past three games, the Canadiens have had a third line that is 100% French-speaking, consisting of Alexandre Texier, Phillip Danault, and Zachary Bolduc.
In addition to being able to communicate in French on the ice, the three players are already showing great chemistry and playing effective hockey.
The trio could have set up two goals for the Canadiens had those goals not been disallowed due to contact with the goalie in the second period and an offside call in overtime.
Ultimately, it w

Didier Fuentes made a name for himself during the 2026 playoffs.
The 21-year-old has been outstanding this season as a reliever in Atlanta, but the playoffs allowed him to shine even brighter.
The Braves have a good pitcher on their hands.
But did you know that, according to Peter Abraham, the Atlanta Braves believe in him so much that he was one of the untouchables in trade talks with the Tigers for Tarik Skubal?Braves Weren’t Willing To Include Didier Fuentes In Skubal Trade Offer https:

With Jayden Struble's departure to Nashville, the Canadiens have opened up a spot on their blue line.
This is an opportunity for the team's young defensemen, particularly David Reinbacher, who—despite an excellent training camp with the Habs—was sent back to Laval.
The Rocket played two road games over the weekend, and it was a good chance for the young defenseman to showcase his skills to ensure he's first in line for a call-up if a Habs defenseman were to get injured—or perha

The Florida Panthers have done everything they could this summer to make a strong comeback and re-establish themselves as Stanley Cup contenders.
The addition of Brady Tkachuk is probably the Panthers' biggest acquisition.
The return of Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk—who missed a LOT of games—along with all the other players who were injured last season, had us believing that everything was going to work out.
However, the Panthers quickly lost Barkov to yet another injury that

The Saskatchewan Roughriders may have to do without their top offensive threat on Monday at Percival Molson Stadium. Star wide receiver KeeSean Johnson was sidelined from practice on Thursday due to an ankle injury, just days before the Thanksgiving showdown against the Montreal Alouettes.
Johnson was injured in the third quarter of the loss to the Calgary Stampeders at Mosaic Stadium and did not return to the game. American linebacker Marquel Lee landed on Johnson's lower leg while tackling him

Most Montreal Canadiens fans were happy to see the team acquire a second-round pick in exchange for Jayden Struble.
There wasn't really a spot for him in Montreal, and Arber Xhekaj can offer pretty much the same thing—but better (though with a bit more disciplinary issues).
In short, he never really had the chance to play significant minutes with the Habs, except when there were injuries on the blue line.
Yesterday, Struble played his first game with his new team, the Nashville Predators.
