Nothing against you Penguin fans, but I’m glad the Sharks get a better first rounder from them than if they made the playoffs.

Those are ten-team conferences, so it would be easy enough just to re-create the old Big10.Nonlinear FC wrote: ↑Tue Apr 16, 2024 3:57 pm I'm trying not to be too parochial, but they have realigned the Pac12 and SEC, while scattering the B1G to the winds. I just don't see that being how things land.

Several Rivians and a Polestar in our neighborhood. We are going to get an electric SUV this year, but those Rivians are pricey! Looking more likely we get a Hyundai Ionic 5 or a Kia. Nice looking, highly rated, less expensive electrics.

That link says they are leaving their name and logo in Phoenix, presumably for a future expansion team.
I wonder what they'll nickname the team? Something that says, "Utah" I guess? Hmm... "Jazz" is already taken..., maybe the Utah Zydeco? Or, the Utah Hiphop? SLC Punk?

Yeah, that was a hell of a save. That kid went undrafted, so he is a free agent. Earned himself a nice contract from somebody with his play the last few days, I’d guess.

The Jets and the Avalanche are highly likely to face each other in the upcoming first round of the playoffs. Today, Winnipeg just edged Colorado 7-0. One wonders how that carries over into the playoffs.

Burns an Karlsson both essentially played rover. Elite offensively but always an adventure on defense. Vlasic never really filled that mold. He used to be an excellent defender, but he got old overnight, a couple years ago.
