Will Byron Buxton undergo surgery?
That could happen in the coming months. The hip is the issue.

Arber Xhekaj finds himself in a somewhat precarious situation.
He still hasn't signed his contract for next season, and the Canadiens' training camp is set to begin in just a few days.
How will this situation be resolved? 
Nicolas Cloutier published an article in which he discusses the fact that the team's blue line is crowded. The journalist explains it well: seeing that there are several defensemen ahead of him, Arber knows he might have a more limited role in the lineup.
His role has alr

A new chapter will finally begin in Anaheim.
After years of fans calling on Arte Moreno to sell the team, their prayers have been answered: the team is being sold.
Stan Kroenke, one of the wealthiest men in the world of sports, announced that he has reached an agreement with Arte Moreno on the terms of a deal.
He will officially take control of the club in 2027.BREAKING: Rams owner Stan Kroenke buys the Angels, ending Arte Moreno’s troubled tenure https://t.co/iRkQ6hR2Gg

Can you believe it’s been ten years since Céline Dion took over Paris Fashion Week with an assist from Law Roach and gave us one of the most delightful weeks in gossip history? I am not exaggerating. Every day she’d come out of her hotel and step on our necks in viral head-to-toe high fashion – none more viral than the Titanic hoodie.View this post on InstagramA post shared by Vogue France (@voguefrance)

Porter Martone, Gavin McKenna, Ivar Stenberg, Cole Hutson, Anton Frondell, Roman Kantserov, James Hagens, Ilya Protas, Tij Iginla…
All these guys have one thing in common: they are (most likely) about to start their first full season in the NHL.
This year's crop of rookies will be exciting to watch in the NHL in '26–'27. No doubt about it!
All the players named above seem to have, for now, a shot at winning the Calder Trophy. But we also have to mention Jacob Fowler, who could be th

So much of the history of pop music is centered around artists who sing in English, but we’re starting to see a shift. Just look at how Bad Bunny has had one of the most incredible few years in terms of commercial success. Something like that may have been considered a fluke in the late-90s but now, it’s becoming the norm. Enter, a Belgian pop artist who has been topping the charts in French-speaking countries for more than a decade. She had a crossover North American and British hit

I was chatting with my boyfriend recently, and we were wondering what Ivan Demidov's ceiling looks like.
Is he going to become one of the National Hockey League's biggest stars? Or are expectations for him a bit overblown?
In situations like this, it's always interesting to hear what other NHL players think. And if we're to believe Kristopher Letang…
The Penguins defenseman said during an appearance on a show where he opened hockey packages that he sees Demidov becoming a top-5 player in

People aren’t talking as much about Elly De La Cruz this season. But that doesn’t mean he’s terrible—quite the opposite.
In fact, his 4.0 WAR, 21 home runs, .270/.351/.477 slash line, 24 stolen bases, and 60 RBIs show that he's still a force to be reckoned with.
He may not be getting as much media attention, but the Reds really can't afford to do without his production. He still energizes the lineup.
And once he becomes more consistent defensively, it will help in many wa

The Venice Film Festival kicks off tomorrow which is when we can stop saying that it’s “too early” to talk about award season because with Venice, and then TIFF and Telluride happening next week, many of this year’s contenders will finally be screened; so we’ll have a better sense of how the race will be shaping up.At least three highly anticipated films are premiering in Venice – Werner Herzog’s Bucking Fastard, starring Kate and Rooney Mara; Martin McD

Zachary Bolduc has little left to prove when it comes to his desire to stay in Montreal.
The young forward wants to wear the Canadiens' jersey and be part of the team's success in the city.
And if he had his way, his next contract certainly wouldn't last just a few years. But… there's also another condition to be met in all of this, according to Anthony Martineau (TVA Sports).
Bolduc wants to feel that there's a path for him in the team's offense, and that's probably what makes the curren

The Owens girls were in LA last night for the Hollywood premiere of Practical Magic 2. I’m just focusing here on Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, they are two major stars of this movie and in the industry overall, and what’s sending me today are the comments on social media about how they’ve been interacting during this press tour.Here they are doing an interview with Variety, talking about how Practical Magic is big with the gays. That is a fact. But it’s not just Pract

The New York Yankees have a comfortable nine-game lead when it comes to the standings for teams qualifying for the playoffs.
But that doesn't change the fact that the Bombers are desperately in need of offensive firepower.
And that could come soon—from captain Aaron Judge, no less. In fact, before last night's (Monday) game against the Los Angeles Angels in California, manager Aaron Boone provided a major update on Judge, stating that “it's possible” he'll be back for the next

September 1.
School has started, summer vacation is over, the days are getting shorter, and I've pulled out my pants for the evenings that are now without sunlight. Ugh!
But at the same time, September is starting to feel like hockey season.
We love that.
The Canadiens are kind of like our collective balm that brings us together and helps us get through our northern winters.
Pretty much all the Habs players are back in Montreal, and pretty much all of them skated together this morning in Brossar

The Keenan Allen incident won't prevent the Indianapolis Colts receiver from starting the new season with his team.Although
he was arrested Sunday
morning for driving under the influence and endangering others while under the influence of alcohol, the veteran is still expected to take the field for the season opener.

Travis Kelce was seen in New York City back in April working on a Tommy Hilfiger campaign at the Plaza Hotel in New York.

Is Kaiden Guhle injured?
It's a fair question, since this morning in Brossard, my colleague Patrick Guillet observed a situation that was quite curious and unusual.
And even a bit concerning.
Here's what happened: the team's three starting goaltenders (Jakub Dobes, Samuel Montembeault, and Jacob Fowler) were on the ice at the CN Complex in Brossard.
On one side of Rink #1 were the three goalies… and on the other were six defensemen: Nosh Dobson, Mike Matheson, Alexandre Carrier, Lane Huts

Just last winter, the Los Angeles Dodgers signed Kyle Tucker to a four-year, $240 million contract. This came about a month after they did the same with reliever Edwin Diaz, this time on a three-year, $69 million deal.
And to say the least, it hasn't paid off so far.
In fact, Tucker posted a .195 batting average and a .603 OPS in August—the worst month of his career. And this came after he changed his swing out of sheer desperation.
Because there's certainly a sense of desperation in the 2

Evander Kane has always been in the news for the wrong reasons.
Whether it's through his ex-wife or the teammates who shared a locker room with him, he's never been liked by most of the people around him.
Let's just put it that way.
Just recently, a story from a former teammate caused a stir on social media. Kurtis Gabriel, who played with him, called him out on social media.
The craziest part is seeing the former teammate publicly claim that he wrote to Kane to remind him that he meant absolute

Dear Gossips,Fan service from an East Asian popstar will always be more involved and … in my opinion… special, maybe even too special if I’m honest.

He is now 29 (30 in Korean age, which is no longer official but still used informally in Korea) and the only member of B

The Canadiens are often in the news because of their salary structure. That's to be expected.
To get to this point, Marc Bergevin had to offer Nick Suzuki the right contract, and the new front office had to build on that momentum.
It took longer for Cole Caufield than for guys like Ivan Demidov and Juraj Slafkovsky, for example. But today, that doesn't really matter much anymore.
But the case that undoubtedly generated the most buzz was Lane Hutson's.
It quickly became clear that the situation w

The Montreal Alouettes have decided to prioritize stability in order to continue their progress in the Canadian Football League (CFL).
The Montreal organization
confirmed Tuesday that it has extended the contracts of its head coach, Jason Maas, and its general manager, Danny Maciocia.
These new agreements will allow both executives to continue their work with the team for several more years. Maas will remain with the Alouettes through 2030, while Maciocia will remain in his position through 2031

Ketel Marte was back in action last night in Arizona. He was removed from the injured list, where he had been placed after leaving the team.
We know that many of his teammates are upset by his behavior. And the same goes for the team's fans.
So it was worth wondering how people would welcome the team's former go-to hitter.
And in the end, let's just say he was booed more than he was cheered. And it was a home game.
“There’s more boos than cheers. There’s no doubt.”

Will Kirill Marchenko be traded by the Blue Jackets?
In the medium term, I think it's inevitable. I find it hard to believe that all the rumors from the past few months are false and that he'll happily sign a long-term contract with Columbus a year from now.
But I could be wrong.
Of course, that doesn't mean he'll be traded tomorrow morning, since Don Waddell likes to point out that he's “in control” of the situation, given that the player is under contract.
Except that in a year, he

The team scored
a spectacular 41–14 victory, putting an end to an incredible streak of 101 consecutive losses

For the players, this victory means much more than just a score on the board. It marks a historic moment for the program, which had been waiting for a win since October 16, 2015. Back then, the sports and political landscape was very different, and many

The British Columbia Lions' victory over the Ottawa Rouge et Noir could have capped off an almost perfect night for the Western team.
But a post
shared on social media quickly changed the mood.
On Sunday night, the Lions secured their fifth straight win by dominating Ottawa 45-24 at TD Place. This victory confirms British Columbia's resurgence, after a particularly difficult start to the season.
For their part, the Rouge et Noir are going through an extremely difficult stretch. Still unable to w
