    Paul Mescal took a break from filming Sam Mendes’ epic Beatles’ four-part film event to support his sister, singer-songwriter Nell Mescal, at All Points East in London over the weekend. He was there with his Beatles co-star Harris Dickinson. I have an instinct that releasing four biopics at once is going to be a mistake—people only have so much money—but I also have an instinct that Gens Z and Alpha might go f-cking NUTS for these movies.Between discovering the Beatles&md

    The Astros and their general manager, Dana Brown, part ways
    Just this morning (Monday), our colleague Charles-Alexis Brisebois pointed out that no team in the American League West had a record above .500.
    And this situation has had repercussions for one of those teams. Indeed, the Houston Astros, through owner Jim Crane, announced that they had mutually agreed to part ways with their general manager, Dana Brown.Over the past four seasons, Dana has helped our organization win two division titles and has led our baseball operations through key efforts in r

    Alex Ovechkin: 33 violations in four months this summer in Russia
    Alex Ovechkin is a good hockey player.
    But you can't say he's quite as talented behind the wheel.
    The Capitals' captain returned home after his team's season ended, and since the start of the summer, he's racked up 33 traffic violations. And for those wondering: no, that last sentence isn't a typo.
    Speeding, illegal use of toll roads, parking violations… there's a bit of everything.

    Lewis Hamilton’s tough loss
    A previous time I was editing the site I did not spotlight Lewis Hamilton when given the opportunity and someone called it out and I was like, “I don’t care about Formula 1, sorry,”, but, well, it’s a slow news day, so here is Lewis Hamilton at the F1 Dutch Grand Prix. He came in fourth, behind winner Lando Norris (McLaren), and the Mercedes duo of AK Antonelli and George Russell, respectively.

    Trade: Keep an eye on Samuel Montembeault
    Today is August 24. The regular season will begin in 36 days.
    Rookie camp starts in two weeks, and regular training camp in three weeks. In short, it's almost here.
    However, the same questions are still on my mind this morning: When will Zachary Bolduc and Arber Xhekaj sign their contracts? Who will be the second-string center on September 29? And what's the plan with Samuel Montembeault?
    Unlike many of my colleagues, I don't see Samuel Montembeault starting the season with the big club—ne

    Kent Hughes wasn't able to add a player to his roster this summer. We were all expecting a big move, but it never happened.
    That's why there should be a battle at training camp for the 13th forward spot. Jared Davidson, Owen Beck, Florian Xhekaj… these guys are likely hungry and will want to prove their worth to start the seas

    Proof that the Canadiens came out on top in the Noah Dobson trade
    Last summer, Kent Hughes made some moves.
    As you probably know, he acquired Noah Dobson from the Islanders. He also offered him a contract worth $9.5 million per season through 2033.
    In return, Emil Heineman and two first-round picks (16th and 17th in 2025) made their way to Long Island.
    Looking back a year later, we can conclude that the Canadiens came out ahead in the trade. After all, Dobson has transformed the team, and Alexander Zharovsky is a promising prospect.

    The Houston Astros started yesterday as the only team in the division that could finish the day at .500… but they lost their second straight game to the A's.

    For years, Nordiques fans have been hoping to see the NHL return to Quebec City.
    But, according to Grant McCagg, they may have to cheer for the arrival of a new team… in the United States.

    The Montreal Canadiens have a very strong pool of prospects, both on offense and defense.
    With so many young players still not playing for the big club, it's easy to overlook a few of them.
    Of course, we'll be talking more about players like Michael Hage, Alexander Zharovsky, and David Reinbacher, because they address the team's current needs (forwards with top-6 potential and a well-rounded right-handed defenseman).

    First, yesterday we learned that Bill Daly will announce the new expansion team by the end of 2026, which is expected to join the league in 2029–2030.
    This doesn't really help the Montreal Canadiens, because they have several promising players and won't be able to protect them all.

    Things got off to a great start for the 23-year-old, who scored three goals in his first three games of the season, but his play quickly faltered as he went through several slumps throughout the season.
