Giancarlo Stanton could return this season

As of yesterday (Sunday), it was clear that Giancarlo Stanton would not be returning to the New York Yankees this season.The 36-year-old has been on the injured list since late April with a strained right calf. He seemed poised to return late last month until he injured his other calf.
However, ahead of the Bombers' final game of the series against the San Diego Padres, manager Aaron Boone brought a glimmer of hope back to the Bronx. According to Garry Phillips of New York News Sports on X, the

Before anyone gets mad and misconstrues my words, because reading comprehension is at an all-time low and nobody understands nuance (and the schools happen to be open today!), I’m not saying that Céline Dion’s team has anything to complain about. For them, no doubt, it’s wonderful to see that Céline is back to being Céline. And that also means that their work is back to being what it was when she was in Paris before her diagnosis – especially for her

Earlier today, Boston Bruins forward Fraser Minten signed a seven-year, $50.4 million contract. That works out to an annual salary of $7.2 million.
For those unfamiliar with Minten, he is a former Leafs prospect who was traded as part of the deal that brought Brandon Carlo to Toronto. In his first season in Boston, Minten recorded 35 points, including 17 goals.
Today, the media has been abuzz, comparing him to another 35-point scorer, Oliver Kapanen. This has led the media to ask: “Is Kapa

As Sarah wrote earlier today, Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder’s You Can See Everything, the documentary about Elizabeth Holmes, bulldozed its way into the festival conversation by surprise, taking the wind a bit out of Venice and claiming the spotlight for Telluride.

Ivan Demidov signed a contract that greatly benefits the team.
He left a few million dollars on the table. A few months later, would he sign for the same amount after seeing the increases in recent contracts?
Marco D'Amico thinks so. That's what he said on the Gonzo and Georges show on BPM Sports, shortly after Arpon Basu stated that he wouldn't be surprised if Nick Suzuki were earning $20 million a year in four years.He's already in a position to ask for that kind of money → https://t.co/P

Projects from Vancouver producers Seth Rogenand Ryan Reynolds collected hardware at the 78th Creative Arts Emmy Awards in Los Angeles over the weekend.The two-day awards ceremonies, which were not televised, focused on technical, artistic, craft and behind-the-scenes achievements.

Miley’s already had a major year with the 20th anniversary of Hannah Montana, her own Barbie doll, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This is her ascent into legend territory, and she’s marking the occasion with a new album, a new record deal, and a re-invented sound. The lead single “Bass Persuades” dropped last week, along with a high-fashion music video that has Miley doing some of the best dancing she’s done in years. The album of the same name is out on

The Nationals sometimes like to pay tribute to the Expos. Sometimes.
We remember, in particular, that in 2019, they decided to wear Expos uniforms for a game. Max Scherzer was the starting pitcher that day.Max Scherzer in an Expos uniform is going to take a minute pic.twitter.com/7pm6Ts2nR1

Nick Suzuki was Marc Bergevin's biggest coup during his time in Montreal.
Not only did he acquire him from the Knights, but he also signed him to an eight-year contract worth $7.875 million annually. Today, it's one of the best contracts in the NHL—by far.
But how much will the Habs' captain be earning in 2030? Arpon Basu wouldn't be surprised if he signed a deal worth $20 million annually.According to Arpon Basu, Nick Suzuki's next contract in 2030 could be as high as $20M! pic.twitter.co

One of the big questions just a few days before the start of the Canadiens' training camp is which goalies will start the season with the big club.
A three-goalie rotation isn't ideal, but it's quite possible that Jakub Dobes, Jacob Fowler, and Samuel Montembeault will start the season with the big club.
But what would it actually take for Monty to switch teams? Tony Marinaro, on The Sick Podcast, has his own theory: a goalie from another team would have to get injured during camp.“Unless

When the Toronto Blue Jays signed Anthony Santander during the 2024 offseason to a five-year, $92.5 million contract, they expected him to provide power at the heart of their lineup.
Instead, it turned out to be quite the opposite: the 31-year-old played only 54 games in 2025 and none in 2026 after undergoing surgery on his left shoulder last February, which required a recovery time of five to six months.
And here we are. Indeed, ahead of the first game of the series against the Sacramento Athle

When Ivan Demidov was drafted by the Canadiens, he started by taking classes to learn English, a language he didn't know very well.
But we've also learned that he wanted to learn French.
We know he took classes, and we also know he's said a few words in commercials. But that doesn't mean we know if he's able to understand people speaking French around him.

The Dallas Cowboys have just created some financial flexibility that could allow them to make a move before the NFL trade deadline.
By restructuring
the contracts of Kenny Clark, DaRon Bland, and Jake Ferguson, the organization has freed up just over $19 million in cap space.
This move is bound to fuel speculation about a possible acquisition. Jerry Jones, the Cowboys' owner and general manager, did not rule out this possibility during

Taylor Swift has been under the radar since getting married but behind the scenes, we do know that she’s been campaigning. She attended at least one Emmys for your consideration event and at least one Grammys event for her The Eras Tour concert film and The Life of a Showgirl.

Gleb Pugachyov isn’t exactly inspiring confidence right now.
The Canadiens' first-round pick in the 2026 draft, who has failed to break into his KHL team's lineup, is currently playing in the junior leagues.
This is unlike Ivan Demidov and Alexander Zharovsky during their 18-year-old seasons, both of whom played in Russia's top league after being drafted by the Canadiens.
Concerns about Pugachyov had begun to surface recently. People were wondering, in veiled terms, what was behind this de

A conspiracy theory I have is that social media started driving billionaires insane, and the pandemic finished the job. Social media allowed the proletariat to talk directly at the richest people in the world, and where they expected to be met with ass kissing similar to that which they receive in real life, instead they got a bunch of eye rolling jerk-off motions, and a shocking awareness (to them) that most people don’t actually like them. Then the pandemic forced them to confront a labo

Aaron Judge has missed 84 games this year and hasn't played since late May. While the New York Yankees have managed to stay afloat in his absence—thanks in part to the team's excellent pitching—it has become clear just how much they've missed having their captain in the lineup.
But that's now a thing of the past. Judge has been activated and will return to action tonight (Tuesday) at Yankee Stadium against the Colorado Rockies.The Yankees have reinstated Aaron Judge from the 60-day i

We talked about this yesterday, but the coming week will be important for Kent Hughes.
Why? Because the Canadiens' GM will be facing the Montreal media in six days. And if he had something new to announce, that would be great.
Otherwise, the lack of action this summer will take up a lot of the conversation.
Whether it's by signing a contract—with a player or a coach—or by bringing in some reinforcements, Kent Hughes can shift the narrative just a bit. #RecencyBias

The Montreal Alouettes will have to revise their game plan for their upcoming games, as a key member of their offense is dealing with an injury.

has lost the services of American Walter Fletcher, who suffered a leg injury during their last game.

Is Gleb Pugachyov in good enough shape?
It's a straightforward question, but one worth asking. Why? Because Grant McCagg, the former Canadiens scout who follows the team and its prospects, raised the issue.
It all started last night on Twitter, when he posted a video noting that the Canadiens prospect sometimes looked disinterested on the ice and was often out of position early in the season. This likely includes the preseason games.Is Pugachyov out of shape? Not sure, but so far this season in

When people ask me what I think about the Blue Jays' chances of making the playoffs in 2026, I often give the same answer.
What I say is that the team has been playing better for the past month, but I need to see consistency to prove that this past month is also representative of the 2026 Blue Jays.
After all, from March through July, we saw what the 2026 Blue Jays were really like.
And even though there have been some good moments recently, there have also been games the Blue Jays let slip away

Are you looking forward to it starting?
Starting next week, the Canadiens' training camp will get underway. And we'll start to get some answers about the lines Martin St-Louis has put together.
At first, it'll just be hints… but as time goes on, we'll see more of what the Habs have in store for their fans.
We'll see if Martin St-Louis (by the way, when will the coach get a contract?) decides to put Xhekaj on a fourth line, as many people are asking.

At this time of year, there isn’t much going on in the NHL.
Hockey fans have already been surprised by the Luke Evangelista trade. Aside from that trade, things have been pretty quiet over the past two months, which is to be expected.
However, there are still a few loose ends to tie up, and Shane Wright is one of them.
The Seattle Kraken forward has been at the center of several trade rumors, and he's expected to change teams at some point this season—if not before the season starts.

Matvei Michkov is certainly a polarizing player.
While he may not make headlines for spectacular play, he all too often does so for negative reasons.
His physical conditioning, his defensive shortcomings, his off-ice behavior… In short, although he's very talented, he remains a player who can be quite difficult to coach.
John Tortorella broke the ice with the Russian when he arrived in the NHL, and now it's Rick Tocchet's turn to manage him.
However, Tocchet recently admitted to The Athle

Does this mean he'll avoid the (15-day) injured list for the rest of the season? Possibly, yes.
But that doesn't mean he won't experience pain in the coming days
