“David Reinbacher needs to be tougher.”

Many are wondering if David Reinbacher will make the big team this season. And I'm not talking about two or three games, but rather a regular role on the roster.
Fans and experts alike have high expectations for Reino this season, which is only natural for the fifth overall pick.
However, it's important to remember that Reinbacher will never be a flashy defenseman. He won't make a never-ending string of spectacular plays like Lane Hutson. That said, he could become an excellent defensive defense

It’s been a couple of weeks since Jennifer Lawrence decided on a random Tuesday during back-to-school week to join Instagram after saying for years that she would never – at least not publicly. It was the most JLaw way to launch JLaw on IG: sarcastic but not mean-spirited, over it but funny. And, naturally, she hasn’t posted since. I don’t think anyone is out here thinking that JLaw finally decided to be on out on these social media streets just to indulge her inner influ

After months of lawsuits and posturing in the media, it is all but over, and the Paramount/Skydance-Warner Bros. Discovery merger will go through. Yesterday, following a weekend of talks, and pressure from California governor Gavin Newsom, the multi-state anti-trust lawsuit against Paramount Skydance was settled, as was the WGA’s separate anti-trust lawsuit. With all legal matters now settled, the merger can—and will—close.For a moment, it really felt like the anti-trust lawsui

This summer, the Red Sox traded Marcelo Mayer to the San Francisco Giants in exchange for left-handed reliever Erik Miller and minor league outfielder Carlos Gutierrez.
At the time, this came as a bit of a surprise to the baseball world, and now we're learning a little more about the 23-year-old's departure, courtesy of Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle.
Slusser reported that Mayer and his family had informed Red Sox management that they would be “comfortable” with a trade

Training camp is (very short) this year. The players have only about ten days to prove to management that they deserve to start the season in Montreal.“Yeah, but Max, there are too many one-way contracts and too many players who have to go through waivers if they're cut. The odds were stacked against them even before training camp started.”That's where I don't buy into your “nonsense.” Martin St-Louis will be under more pressure to win than before—he himself said he

Dear Gossips,Oscar speculation about The Odyssey began the moment it opened in theatres, if not before. But the film’s box office, which has now exceeded $1.7 billion, an astonishing number for an R-rated movie, has made it Universal’s highest grossing film ever, and is definitely a factor where Oscar contention is concerned.For the last couple months, however, one of the Oscar questions related to The Odyssey was about strategy, specifically in which category Anne Hathaway would cam

It's a good thing David Reinbacher doesn't play for Rod Brind'Amour.
Why do I say that? Because the Carolina Hurricanes' coach doesn't believe preseason games matter. He'd rather see 86-game seasons so he could eliminate the ones that don't count.
In his view, preseason games have little impact on the final composition of teams.Canes head coach Rod Brind'Amour is in favor of completely abolishing NHL preseason games so the regular season can get going soonerRod mentioned that exhibition games ha

If you still believe the Blue Jays have a chance to make the playoffs, your optimism is admirable.
Last night, the team had a golden opportunity to stay in the playoff race. But for the fifth time in seven games, they lost.
Last night, it happened in a 4-3 loss to the Orioles.
Trey Yesavage, returning from injury, pitched only 40 pitches, but that's not exactly a surprise. He gave up one run and struck out three batters over two innings.
The Blue Jays not only lost the game and their hopes of ma

Did you enjoy last night's game in Trois-Rivières?
The Canadiens won 3-2 in overtime against the Sens. And several key Canadiens players stepped up during the game.
For example? Cole Caufield and Lane Hutson, of course.We just can't get enough of that 48-13 connection

CeeDee Lamb had just turned in one of his best performances of the early season with the Dallas Cowboys when another task awaited him in the stadium hallways.
After Sunday's 37-20 victory over the Washington Commanders, the star wide receiver was reportedly summoned by the NFL for a drug test.
The information was reported by Patrik Walker, a reporter for DallasCowboys.com. In a video posted after the game, Lamb could be seen heading toward the locker room. The wide receiver reportedly mentioned

New York Giants fans had a real scare Monday night when Jaxson Dart had to leave the game against the Los Angeles Rams after suffering a knee injury.
The quarterback was hit during the Giants' first offensive possession while attempting to complete a pass on third down. He found himself sandwiched between two Rams defenders, Byron Young and Josaiah Stewart, and his left knee was subjected to a particularly jarring movement.
After the hit, Jaxson Dart remained on the ground for a few moments, clu

After two wins against the Leafs on Saturday, the Habs were back in action tonight in Trois-Rivières.
They faced the Senators and tried to remain undefeated in preseason play.

Lane Hutson is having a great training camp. Are you surprised?
It's a bit more surprising in David Reinbacher's case, but he's set to start the season in Montreal. I'd be very surprised if he started in Laval, anyway. Kaiden Guhle's injury has opened the door for him.

Generally speaking, across all sports, teams prefer to start the playoffs with some momentum built up at the end of the regular season.
The playoffs begin next week in baseball, and if there's one team that's really on a roll right now, it's the San Diego Padres. Quietly, the West Coast club has just won thirteen of its last fourteen games. The Padres are led by Fernando Tatis Jr., who is playing inspired and inspiring baseball.
The thing about the Padres is that their current standing in the st

Michigan has quite the team this season. This team's goal for the season: to win the Frozen Four—nothing less.
In addition to Michael Hage, of course, Landon DuPoint, J.P. Hurlbert, and Jayden Perron, among others, will make Michigan one of the powerhouses of the NCAA.
In addition to winning major titles, the university's goal is, of course, to develop Hage. In an exclusive interview with RG Media, the team's head coach, Brandon Naurato, told Marco D'Amico that he's preparing Hage to be an

An Update on Dylan Cease
He has inflammation in his shoulder, but he shouldn't need surgery. His 2026 season is obviously in jeopardy, but not his 2027 season.Dylan Cease says that his shoulder MRI revealed inflammation, but that this isn't something that should require surgery or impact his 2027 season.For now, he says they're still deciding if he'll pitch again this season, but that feels (in my opinion) unlikely. #BlueJays

Today, the Canadiens brought a strong lineup with them to Trois-Rivières. Most of the players who will take the ice have already secured a spot on the roster for next season.
There are still a few players who will be competing for a spot, though: Xhekaj, David Reinbacher, and Samuel Montembeault, who played very well in half a game in Toronto.
According to Tony Marinaro, this year we'll see the Monty from two years ago. He still believes in the Quebec native.We'd all missed @TonyMarinarop

The NFL is preparing to host its first game in Rio de Janeiro, but the condition of the field at the legendary Maracanã Stadium has recently raised concerns.
Despite criticism from some soccer players, the league now says it has no concerns about the field that will host the Dallas Cowboys and the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
The field has been the subject of much discussion in recent days. Flamengo goalkeeper Agustín Rossi, in particular, described a surface with several bumps and

Chris Kreider didn’t steal Juraj Slafkovsky’s spot on the Canadiens’ top line.
Because, in reality… the Habs had planned to move Slaf down to the second line. The problem?
Before acquiring Kreider, Martin St-Louis didn't necessarily have the luxury of keeping the tall Slovak alongside Ivan Demidov.
The goal, in fact, is to allow Slaf to control the puck more—something he excels at on the ice. Playing with Suzuki and Caufield, his role is different: he's expected to

The Philadelphia Eagles have decided to bring Zach Ertz back into the organization as Dallas Goedert is set to miss time due to a knee injury.
The 35-year-old veteran will initially join the practice squad, with the possibility of quickly moving up to the active roster.
This decision comes on the heels of Philadelphia's victory over the Tennessee Titans. Goedert injured his knee during the game, and reports indicate he is expected to miss several weeks due to a sprained medial collateral ligamen

The Blue Jackets' training camp kicked off last week, and things have been pretty chaotic ever since it began.
There's been some scuffling on the ice, some questionable comments from Kirill Marchenko, and Adam Fantilli's absence, which continues to be the talk of the town…
Let's just say things aren't going as smoothly as they could. 
Obviously, we're keeping a close eye on the Marchenko situation because we know where he stands. We know he doesn't want to continue his career in Colu

The Atlanta Falcons’ offense is having a season that's been anything but smooth.Unable to reach the opponent's red zone in their first two games, fans are holding their breath. To address this slump, the organization has made a bold move: Michael Penix Jr. will lead the offense starting Thursday against the formidable Green Bay Packers.
A golden opportunity for the young quarterback
So far, the Falcons' record has been dismal, with only 16 total points scored and a meager offensive output.

Last week, Samuel Blais took a jab at the Canadiens.
He said he didn't like being sent to Laval by the Montreal club during the season because he felt he had performed better than other players on the team.
And, of course, his comments made waves in Montreal. That was to be expected, let's face it… 
But now, when asked about it, Blais has sort of backtracked… saying he would have liked to stay in Montreal and play for the Canadiens. Anthony Martineau reported his comments in a
