Tonight, the Canadiens lost to the Sharks. It's a painful loss, especially since the Habs were in control of a game they let slip away.
Once again, the team blew a lead in the third period.
It's worth noting, however, that after the game, Ivan Demidov was seen chatting with Andrei Markov. Markov attended the game and clearly wanted to take the time to greet the young Russian forward.
Except that, according to Stu Cowan, there's still some bad news to take away from all this: Demidov is currently
Tonight, the Canadiens took the ice at the Bell Centre. They hosted the San Jose Sharks.
For the Habs, Jakub Dobes was back in net. It was a great opportunity for him to get his season back on track.

As we know, Dylan Larkin wants to leave Detroit. The Red Wings forward requested a trade early this summer, but his wish has not (yet) been granted.
Reports circulating over the past few days, however, suggest that the situation could be resolved soon.
Of course, all of this would depend on Larkin's willingness to expand the list of teams to which he would agree to be traded. We know that the Canadiens, for example, are ready to make a move for him… but the veteran would not agree to be t
Luke Mittelstadt has been gaining popularity in Montreal since training camp. The 23-year-old defenseman, who performed well in camp, has now recorded 13 points in six AHL games during the 2026-27 season.
Remember: he's a defenseman.
Of course, his offensive breakout is somewhat surprising. Mittelstadt wasn't necessarily the most offensive-minded player in the NCAA (he tallied 21 points in 36 games during his most productive season), and he seems to have found his niche in Laval.
And it's even m
For the past few days, there has been a possibility that Brandon Woodruff could return to action for the Brewers in the World Series.
Will the pitcher be healthy enough to make his return to the mound, given that he underwent shoulder surgery in July and was expected to miss the rest of the season?
It's possible. And we know he'd love to—he's been in Milwaukee his whole life and wants to give Wisconsin fans a taste of victory.
However, as Ken Rosenthal reports in an article for The Athleti
The Canadiens and the Sharks are currently facing off at the Bell Centre. We're in for a showdown between two of the NHL's best young teams.
We're likely to see these two teams face off in many high-quality matchups in the coming years.
And after the first period ended with the score tied at 1-1, Juraj Slafkovský decided to take matters into his own hands. The Slovakian, who set up Nick Suzuki's goal in the first period, put his team ahead.
But it was the way he did it that really caught
The Bell Centre was packed with fans eager to watch the game between the Canadiens and the Sharks. Nearly twenty scouts were in the stands for the game.
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.

A Worrying Incident in Regina
The Montreal Alouettes are holding their breath. Their kicker, José Maltos Diaz, left last Saturday's game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders in a golf cart after injuring his left arm. With the playoffs approaching, as the Journal de Montréal points out, the team needs him now more than ever.
The incident occurred late in the game in Regina. With about three minutes left to play, Maltos Diaz missed a 44-yard field goal attempt. On the ensuing kickof

A big scare for the Pittsburgh Penguins.

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,

The kicker merry-go-round continues in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Rams, who are 2-4, signed veteran Brandon McManus on Tuesday. He becomes the team's third kicker in two weeks and is set to begin his 13th season in the NFL.
Last week, the Rams released Harrison Mevis. His replacement, Blake Grupe
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.

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.

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.

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
