Among these scouts, one stood out more than the others.
That person was Red Wings Assistant General Manager Kris Draper.Notable presence in the press box according to the official list: #LGRW Assistant GM Kris Draper, who also serves as director of amateur scouting

Of course, both teams are small-market clubs, which is noteworthy given that a lockout seems all but certain in MLB.
But above all, they're two powerhouses on the field.

Brady Tkachuk's big return to Ottawa will take place on Wednesday night. We can expect some heated moments and plenty of insults from Senators fans.
Tkachuk even expects some of his Senators jerseys to be thrown onto the ice by frustrated fans.
However, the former Sens captain revealed on the latest episode of his podcast that he's already prepared a response to this potential gesture.Brady Tkachuk said on his podcast that if a No. 7 jersey is thrown onto the ice on Wednesday during his return g
A big scare for the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The team's plane had to turn back shortly after taking off from Salt Lake City due to a medical emergency involving Ben Kindel.
The crew on board immediately sprang into action to assist him. Upon the Pens' return to Salt Lake City, an ambulance was waiting for the young player, who was then transported to the University of Utah Hospital for further testing.
Fortunately, the news is reassuring: according to reports from the Penguins, Kindel is conscious,
Director Jennifer Peedom’s biographical drama Tenzing reframes the 1953 conquest of Mount Everest as a story of spiritual purpose, equality and friendship between two outsiders.More than seven decades after Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay first summited Mount Everest , their achievement is still fixed in the popular imagination. But in this film streaming on AppleTV now, Peedom pulls back on that familiar image of the pair atop Everest (8,848.86 metres) and delivers the origin story of

Learning a new system of play isn’t always easy.
It takes some adjustment… and practice: the guys have to play to get used to their new environment on the ice.
Just ask Chris Kreider, who's still getting used to Martin St-Louis's coaching style.
The veteran told reporters (RDS) after yesterday's practice that things are going well so far, but he also admitted that he's not quite comfortable with his new system just yet. That's normal… and it shows on the ice at times, too.

Deadline had the exclusive late yesterday - Benny Safdie’s new film, and his second collaboration with Dwayne Johnson, a film called Lizard Music, will be released on December 25, 2027.

The Dylan Larkin saga isn’t over yet.
The player is still with the Red Wings organization while he waits to leave Michigan. He requested a trade, but management in Detroit hasn't been able to trade him (yet).
And now, today, we're learning that a new surprise team has entered the mix for the former Wings captain.
In a recent segment on TSN (Early Trading), Pierre LeBrun mentioned that the Kings might be interested in acquiring Larkin. Ken Holland (the Kings' GM) knows him well… beca

The World Series will pit two small-market teams against each other. But even those teams have some great players.
Junior Caminero, who has been dominant in the MLB for the past two years, is among them.
On Monday night, he hit his first home run of the postseason. He hasn't had a tough postseason (quite the opposite), but he hadn't been performing up to his enormous potential for the past few weeks.
Except that his massive home run in Game 6 seems to have woken him up.
Junior Caminero took 38.6
The past few weeks in Columbus have been… complicated.
The Zach Werenski situation has been the talk of the town; we had to wait a while before Adam Fantilli signed, and the Kirill Marchenko situation has also shaken up the organization in some ways.
You can't exactly say everything is rosy in Ohio right now.
I don't know if Fantilli is upset because of his team's (poor) start to the season, but he dropped a bombshell today—as the Leafs and the Blue Jackets are set to face off tonig
The Ottawa Rouge et Noir could soon have a familiar face in Canadian football at the helm.Mike Morreale, a former Canadian Football League (CFL) wide receiver and experienced sports executive, is reportedly set to be named president of the organization, according to a report initially published by TSN.

Before taking on Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, director Josh Epstein tackled another high-energy farce, The Play That Goes Wrong. Besides their broad humour and physical comedy, the two productions have something else in common.“It’s the theatricality,” Epstein said. “You can see the seams of the productions, which are left visible on purpose. I think that’s what audiences love and connect with. That’s the difference between coming to the theatre and watching
Zach Baron at GQ asked Prince Harry the question of the day: why did you return to England? Harry’s answer is a bit of a word salad and he mirrors the interview and says that their attitude has changed (“they” meaning him and Meghan) and the media landscape has changed. It’s vague.
My interpretation is that he has broken the “invisible contract” and being able to talk about the media, which the royal family cannot do, has empowered them. My more cynical read o
It's only natural to link Samuel Montembeault to the Rangers.
I know, I know: Monty is currently injured. But it's highly likely that the Canadiens will try to trade him once he's healthy again—even if that would leave only two young goalies to guard the net in Montreal.
Naturally, the Rangers' name comes up often in discussions.
Except that right now, it seems that as we look at the situation, it's becoming less and less likely that Monty could be traded to the Rangers.
Why? Because of th
The Milwaukee Brewers, who advanced to the World Series by sweeping the Los Angeles Dodgers in four games, have the 19th-highest payroll in MLB, while their opponents, the Tampa Bay Rays, rank 25th in that category.
The last time both league champions ranked in the bottom half of Major League Baseball in terms of payroll was when the Minnesota Twins (15th out of 26 teams) defeated the Atlanta Braves (19th) in the 1991 Fall Classic.
To add another layer to the story, the American League Champions
Jennifer Lawrence is launching her own haircare line. But I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t brag about it first, LOL. Really, though, it’s a compliment about her hair, because back in February 2024 I was already talking about how she’s the only blonde in Hollywood whose hair is so aspirational there should be a haircare line behind it. And a few months after that, in August 2024 I wrote that “JLaw does not have a haircare line. But if there was a blonde in Hollywood whos
The Washington Commanders will have to finish their season without one of their key offensive players.Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed that wide receiver Terry McLaurin will not return to action this year after suffering a serious left knee injury during Monday's game against the San Francisco 49ers.
This announcement is bad news for Washington, which is losing a key target in its passing game. At 31, McLaurin remains one of the team's most productive players and a vital part of its offensive sche

As an award season nerd, I am living right now for all the Oscar conversations that are happening online. It’s October, we still have five months to go, maybe it’s too much too soon and the fatigue will set in even sooner but right now, it’s fun. It’s fun when the speculation takes an unexpected turn. It’s fun to overhype what a film’s momentum could mean and whether or not that buzz could challenge a presumed favourite. It’s fun especially when such a s
Yesterday, Mike Matheson practiced with Florian Xhekaj. So he was (pretty much) on his own.
It was the first time he'd been on the ice (as far as we know, at least) since his injury was announced. And according to the latest reports, he's still day-to-day.
We'll see what the Habs announce.
But this morning, Matheson not only skated alone, but Maxime Van Houtte also reports that he stayed on the ice when the regulars started skating.
We don't expect to see him play tonight against the Macklin Cel
We now know the two World Series finalists: the Tampa Bay Rays and the Milwaukee Brewers. But while both small-market teams are seeking their first Major League Baseball championship, they're not heading into the final in the same situation.
That's because between the end of the National League Championship Series last Thursday and the start of the World Series on Friday, the Brewers will have seven full days to rest and prepare.
This is the team's longest break since the start of the current se
The size of NHL players will always be a topic of conversation.
Even though there's more room for smaller players than before, the fact remains that a smaller player will always have to prove 150 times over that he can get the job done to earn his place in the sun.
The biggest player, on the other hand, will have to prove 150 times that he can't do it before getting cut. #KirbyDach

Monday night took a worrying turn for the Washington Commanders, who saw their star wide receiver, Terry McLaurin, leave the field early in their game against the San Francisco 49ers.
As the team tries to turn around a difficult season, this injury could be another major blow to its offense.
The incident occurred toward the end of the first quarter, when McLaurin collapsed while running a route. The 31-year-old appeared to be suffering from an injury to his left knee and had to be carted off the
Dear Gossips,I am a locked-down biohazard right now, laid out by the flu before the flu shot is even available but I’m only telling you this because something helped with the cough and congestion yesterday. It was the most fun I’ve had since this thing came on last Friday – 18 minutes of pure delight the way only Cardi B can bring it. Her Tiny Desk broke my fever. And it’s unanimous, a slamdunk, 10s across the board.This is Cardi operating at the highest frequency. The ar
The New York Giants have decided to part ways with Najee Harris, according to information obtained Tuesday by the Associated Press.
The news, also reported by NFL Network, had not yet been officially confirmed by the New York organization, however.
This decision comes as the running back struggles to regain his form following a serious injury to his left Achilles tendon. At 28, Harris had hoped to revive his career with the Giants, but his early performances in his new uniform fell short of expe
