The Maple Leafs aren't operating like a serious hockey team
“At the end of the day, this is the most important decision that I will likely make in my tenure at MLSE.”The “decision” that Keith Pelley, the president and CEO of MLSE, was referring to in late March was the hiring of the next front office of the Toronto Maple Leafs.This was it then? With the most important decision of his tenure, at a crucial pivot point for the franchise, the best Pelley could do — the best the Leafs, one of the league’s most iconic and richest franchises, could do — was hir...

Before Curt Cignetti made college football history winning, he endured a lot of losing
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Nearly 50 years before he would lead Indiana to the most unlikely national championship in college football history, Curt Cignetti got a harsh lesson about the perils of losing.In November 1978, during Curt’s senior year of high school, his father, Frank, then the head coach at West Virginia, came down with a mysterious illness. Curt idolized his dad, who he would later say “had a little John Wayne and Clint Eastwood in him.” Curt had been on the Mountaineers’ sideline with F...
Nationals fan survey results, Pt. 1: Grading the new brass and the Gore trade
WASHINGTON — I’ll begin this story with an apology.It is difficult to judge a team after one month. I imagine, for instance, that the consensus on Cade Cavalli (back-to-back 10-strikeout games) has changed since you all filled this survey out. Still, I believe it’s important to regularly hear from the fans — in this case, 1,639 of you — and I personally believe we’ve already learned a good deal about the direction of this club, and the way it operates.Advertisement
What can the 2026 Mets learn from 2024's turnaround?
“This is the incomprehensible basis of reality in things, the irreducible remainder which cannot be resolved into reason by the greatest exertion but always remains in the depths. Out of this which is unreasonable, reason in the true sense is born. Without this preceding gloom, creation would have no reality; darkness is its necessary heritage.” —“Philosophical Inquiries into the Nature of Human Freedom,” F.W.J. SchellingHow exactly did this all feel two years ago?Advertisement

Who will go No. 1 in 2026 NHL Draft? McKenna leads race ahead of lottery
With the NHL Draft Lottery taking place on Tuesday, there still isn’t a consensus for who will be the No. 1 pick in 2026. The media has largely circled Penn State’s Gavin McKenna, but the discourse in the league is a little different. Because there isn’t a prospect separating from the pack, who wins the lottery will, in part, dictate which player goes first, depending on organizational need and philosophical preference. I’ve polled NHL scouts and front office executives to get a pulse on the top...
The Verdict: Canadian view of a potential Vancouver Whitecaps relocation

Cavs' and Pistons' survival, Joel Embiid, 3-1 comebacks turned the East on its ear
CLEVELAND — It was a Saturday night in the Eastern Conference playoffs, and a Green Giant was crashing toward the Earth.Joel Embiid is too big, too decorated, to be called the little guy.

LAS VEGAS – The Vegas Golden Knights and Anaheim Ducks will meet in the playoffs for the first time, with Game 1 of the second-round series set for Monday night at T-Mobile Arena.It’s a bit odd that the sides have never clashed in the postseason, but it’s a product of the Golden Knights’ championship window opening just as the Ducks’ swung shut. Vegas’ Pacific Division dominance began right as Anaheim’s stranglehold on the division — led by a core headlined by Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry — ende...
