2014 articles

I am lifelong sports fan with a passion for a variety of sports but specialize in hockey and baseball. From a young age, I've both enjoyed watching and studying both sports vigorously which has led me to a career in sports journalism. A family man, I enjoy my work/life balance between my wife, young children and my career. It's a pleasure to do what I do for a living and my hope is readers get the most out of my work.

Nicklas Backstrom Unlikely To Return This Season

Washington Capitals center Nicklas Backstrom is unlikely to return to action this season, according to general manager Brian MacLellan. Backstrom announced he is taking a leave from the team to address ongoing health issues last week. The veteran pivot underwent hip resurfacing surgery in June of 2022 and returned to skate in just 39 games […]


Frederik Andersen Out Indefinitely With Blood Clots

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Frederick Andersen is out indefinitely with blood clotting issues but is expected to make a full recovery, according to general manager Don Waddell. Veteran goaltender Jaroslav Halak has been signed to a free agent tryout to help replace the 34-year-old Andersen between the pipes for Carolina. Andersen has battled a variety of […]


Matt Duchene Will Not Play Monday

Dallas Stars forward Matt Duchene will not be in the Dallas Stars' lineup when the club takes on the visiting Boston Bruins on Monday night. Duchene is listed as day-to-day with an undisclosed injury after leaving Saturday's contest against the Vancouver Canucks early following a second-period hit by Canucks defenseman Ian Cole. After being bought […]


Jung Hoo Lee Being Targeted By Tigers

Korean star outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is being targeted by the Detroit Tigers, who are viewed as the front-runners to sign the 25-year-old. Lee is set to be posted on Monday night after Kiwoom of the KBO has ended its season. Lee has thrived in seven seasons in the KBO, which is largely viewed as […]


Stephen Vogt Hired To Manage Guardians

The Cleveland Guardians have hired Stephen Vogt as the 45th manager in franchise history. The former big-league backstop replaces Terry Francona who managed the club for 11 seasons before stepping down due to a lengthy battle with health issues. Vogt, 39, played 794 MLB games as a catcher and hit .239 with 82 home runs […]


Carlos Mendoza Tabbed To Manage Mets

The New York Mets have hired former Yankees bench coach Carlos  Mendoza as their new manager. Originally seen as finalists to land the highly-coveted Craig Counsell, they decided to go with Mendoza before Counsell was surprisingly hired by the Chicago Cubs. The 43-year-old Mendoza has spent the last four seasons as Aaron Boone's bench coach with […]


Adam Ottavino Declines Player Option For 2024

Former New York Mets reliever Adam Ottavino has declined his $6.75 million player option with the club for the 2024 season and will become a free agent. The reliever will be in search of a new multi-year deal on the open market as $4 million of his $6.75 player option was to be deferred. The […]


Craig Counsell Hired To Manage Cubs

The Chicago Cubs have hired former Milwaukee Brewers skipper Craig Counsell as their new manager. Counsell will replace David Ross, who was under contract to manage the club in 2024. Hired by Milwaukee prior to the 2015 season, Counsell compiled a 707-625 record across nine seasons with the club, winning three NL Central titles while […]


Cayden Primeau Dressing As Habs' Backup Thursday

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Cayden Primeau will dress as the backup to starter Jake Allen for Thursday night's contest in Arizona against the Coyotes. There is no word on whether there is an injury to Samuel Montembault or whether the club simply plans to give the netminder the full night off. Although just 24 years of […]


Charlie McAvoy Appealing Four-Game Suspension

Boston Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy is appealing his four-game suspension for a hit to the head of Florida Panthers defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson. McAvoy was assessed a five-minute match penalty and a game misconduct for a high hit on Ekman-Larsson midway through the third period of Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Panthers and was slapped […]


Timothy Liljegren Departs After Awkward Fall Thursday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren left Thursday's contest against the Boston Bruins in the second period after being upended into the end boards by Bruins forward Brad Marchand. He left the game with an apparent lower leg injury and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest. The 24-year-old has seen an […]


Adam Fox Departs Early Thursday

New York Rangers defenseman Adam Fox left Thursday night's contest versus the Carolina Hurricanes early with an apparent injury following a collision with Hurricanes center Sebastian Aho. He has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest. Obviously, any lengthy absence for the 25-year-old would be a significant blow for the Rangers. Fox has […]


Sean Newcomb Remains With A's On One-Year Extension

Oakland A's pitcher Sean Newcomb has inked a one-year, $1 million deal to remain with the club for the 2024 season. The left-hander was acquired by the A's from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for minor league outfielder Trenton Brooks in a rare post-deadline deal between the two Bay Area clubs. Newcomb never pitched […]


Domingo German Outrighted By Yankees

New York Yankees pitcher Domingo German was outrighted off the 40-man roster on Thursday. One of six players to be outrighted by the club, German can either be claimed by a rival team or elect free agency. It was a tumultuous season for the right-hander in 2023 as German worked to a 4.56 ERA and […]


Max Muncy Inks Two-Year Extension With Dodgers

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy has signed a two-year contract extension worth $24 million with the club. The deal contains a $10 million club option for the 2026 season. It was a typical low-average, high-power season for the veteran who hit just .212 but also pounded 36 home runs while producing 105 RBI across […]


Max Kepler, Jorge Polanco Have Club Options Exercised By Twins

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler and second baseman Jorge Polanco both had their 2024 club options exercised by the club on Thursday. The decisions were widely expected after Kepler and Polanco both enjoyed quality campaigns at the plate in 2023. Kepler, who will earn $10 million next season, posted a career-high batting average of .260 […]

The veteran blue-liner suffered a cut to the face on Oct. 13 when he was hit with a slap shot and has not appeared in a contest since. The 33-year-old […]

Winnipeg Jets head coach Rick Bowness is on leave from the club after his wife, Judy, suffered a seizure on Sunday.

NHLPA Appeals Rasmus Andersson Suspension

The National Hockey League Players' Association has appealed the four-game suspension handed out to Calgary Flames defenseman Rasmus Andersson for his hit on Blue Jackets forward Patrik Laine Friday night in Columbus. It appeared Andersson made direct contact with the head of Laine in the dying seconds of the Flames' 3-1 loss and the league […]

Toronto Maple Leafs winger Calle Jarnkrok skated on the top line in Monday's practice alongside Mauston Matthews and Mitch Marner.

Carter Hart Getting A Breather Saturday

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Carter Hart will not be between the pipes for Saturday's road contest versus the Dallas Stars. The netminder is healthy, as per head coach Jon Tortorella, as Saturday's night off is simply to give his netminder a rest after he has started each of the Flyers' first four games this season. Still […]


Kris Letang Good To Go Saturday

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang is good to go for Saturday's game against the St. Louis Blues after missing Thursday's practice due to a lower-body injury. "We're just monitoring," Letang said after he logged a hefty 24:35 of ice time in a loss to the Red Wings on Wednesday. The veteran blueliner has a lengthy […]


Pontus Holmberg Making Season Debut Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs center Pontus Holmberg is set to make his season debut Saturday night on the road against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Swede began the season with the AHL's Toronto Marlies but will debut as the club's fourth-line center in a rematch of last year's Round 1 matchup versus the Lightning. Holmberg skated […]
