Justin Rose Not Recommended for Wyndham Championship

It was thought that the Justin Rose 73 at The Open was bad enough but the final round 75 at the FedEx WGC was actually worse. Rose could not hit fairways, make putts, or do much of anything right. When a golfer bogeys the first two holes the way the Englishman did, it had the […]

Max Comtois Signs Two-Year Bridge Contract with Anaheim Ducks

Max Comtois signed a two-year deal with the Anaheim Ducks on Monday. The forward scored 16 goals and had 33 points in 55 games last season. His AAV on the contract is $2.0375 million. The left-winger saw increases in every category and especially role. He played over 15 minutes in 2021 and expects to exceed […]

Carter Hart Agrees to Three-Year Bridge Deal with Philadelphia Flyers

Carter Hart and the Philadelphia Flyers were both willing to put last year behind them as they agreed to a three-year contract on Monday. The contract pays Hart $3.979 million AAV. It is no secret that both parties had a 2020-21 to forget but believe that was a blip as opposed to a trend. In […]

Ilya Samsonov Nabs Show Me Contract for One Year in Washington

Ilya Samsonov had a trying season in Washington last year with COVID. The Washington Capitals gave him one more chance on Monday. His contract is for a season at $2 million. Samsonov did have 13 wins in 19 appearances but had just a .902 save percentage despite posting two shutouts. The Russian goaltender is just […]

Igor Shesterkin Signs Four-Year Deal with New York Rangers

Igor Shesterkin signed a four-year contract with the New York Rangers on Monday for an AAV of $5.65 million. This buys New York two years of unrestricted free agency on their Russian goaltender who is just 25. Shesterkin has played a total of 35 games last season for the Rangers. He posted a 2.62 goals-against […]

Denny Hamlin With Another Top Five Result But No Win

Even after the Olympic Break, Denny Hamlin found himself in a familiar position on Sunday. He finished in the top-five yet again but still is winless on the season. With the Kyle Larson result and extra points, Larson and Hamlin are now tied in points for the regular season lead. One spot for "The Chase" […]

Kyle Busch Never Got Up Front But Managed Fourth-Place Result

The Olympic Break did not serve Kyle Busch quite as well as expected. Busch never really got to the front after starting 20th on Sunday. He got close a few times but did not lead a single lap. It seemed the No. 18 car just always had something missing when there was a chance. Apparently, […]

Martin Truex Jr. Leads Joe Gibbs Racing Drivers Sunday, Finishes Third

Martin Truex Jr. just did not quite have the lift needed to keep up with Chase Elliott or Kyle Larson on Sunday. As a result, he was passed late in the race by Elliott and had to settle for third -- more than six seconds back of Larson. Truex Jr. did finish the best out […]

Chase Elliott Finished Second at Watkins Glen on Sunday

Chase Elliott had the best and fastest race car on the track Sunday at the Watkins Glen track. It did not matter. There was a reason he led no laps of the 90 contested. Simply, the No. 9 car made too many mistakes at critical moments. Every single time Elliott started to get close, something […]

Kyle Larson Drove Road Course Like Chase Elliott, Wins at Watkins Glen

Kyle Larson is a student of the game and a quick learner. What he has learned over the last season and change, he is applying versus the field. Again, he proved on Sunday that the No. 5 is a force to be reckoned with anywhere. Larson used his ability on long runs to save his […]

Darnell Nurse is now under contract for the next nine seasons with the Edmonton Oilers. The Edmonton defenseman inked an eight-year extension on Friday worth $9.25 million AAV over eight seasons. Nurse enjoyed an excellent season where he racked up 16 goals and 36 points in just 56 games. He shot a career-high 10.4% and […]

Bubba Wallace an Interesting Choice at Watkins Glen

Bubba Wallace has had a trying season, to say the least with his new 23XI racing team but is still 20th in the points standings. That is pretty good despite everything. In his last two road races, Wallace finished 15th at Sonoma and 24th in Wisconsin. He started from 36th at Road America which was […]

Kyle Busch Place Differential a Big Asset at Watkins Glen

Kyle Busch hit the pace car in New Hampshire, had numerous issues, and never fully recovered. Ultimately, he bowed out after eight laps and finished 37th. Before that, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver had six top-five finishes in his previous seven races. Those included a win at Pocono but more importantly, a fifth at Sonoma […]

Cole Custer Starts 19th at Watkins Glen, Could Maintain Position

Cole Custer has finished 17th, 17th, and 14th in his last three races. He starts the Go Bowling at The Glen from the 19th position on Sunday. Custer was able to maintain track position in Wisconsin only dropping two spots. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver has far from the fastest car but he tends to hang […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Rough to Consider at Watkins Glen

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. charged up the field at Wisconsin coming from outside the top 35 to finish 12th. However, he does have three DNF's in his past seven races. That is extremely troublesome for the JTG-Daugherty Racing driver. These are mostly car issues too. Two engine issues and one suspension problem were the culprits. So, […]

Kurt Busch Hopes to Keep Momentum at Watkins Glen

Kurt Busch had a few issues at New Hampshire before the Olympic Break but managed to guide his No. 1 car to a 16th place result. His last two road races have gone much better with a sixth at Sonoma and fourth at Wisconsin. Both tracks showed Busch enjoying excellent grip and speed while improving […]

Austin Dillon Consistency May Not Help on Sunday

Austin Dillon is another one of those drivers that may need a win to get in. He stands 13th in The Chase and has an average finish of yes, 13.4. Dillon also typically starts right around 13th too. This week, he comes in from the 16th position. The Richard Childress Racing driver does not lead […]

William Byron a Dicey Pick at Watkins Glen on Sunday

The good news is that William Byron does start only 15th at Watkins Glen. The bad news is that the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver is not that great on road courses. He does have one top ten in his last two tries at this track. Byron's last two races with left and right turns have […]

Matt DiBenedetto Not Expecting Much at Watkins Glen

Matt DiBenedetto is also right on "The Chase" bubble at 17th in the points standings. However, he does not have any wins on the season and prospects are pretty dim this week at Watkins Glen. The Wood Brothers Racing driver did finish tenth at Wisconsin but his other road results have been outside the top […]

Tyler Reddick Mixed Bag Heading Into Watkins Glen

Tyler Reddick stands 12th in the points race with no wins on the season. That means he is on the bubble with four races left. Can he win on a road course? This answer is likely no. He does have an eighth at Wisconsin and ninth at Austin but a 19th at Sonoma and crashed […]

Ross Chastain Could Do Well at Watkins Glen on Sunday

Ross Chastain has enjoyed some excellent road results this season. He finished in the top ten at Sonoma, Austin, and Wisconsin. Arguably, the Wisconsin race may have been the most impressive because he was able to maintain track position. He starts in 12th on Sunday and has risen to 18th in the points standings. There […]

Chase Elliott a Prohibitive Favorite at Watkins Glen on Sunday

Chase Elliott is the premier road course driver in NASCAR and the results speak for themselves. The last two times at Watkins Glen have produced victories as Elliott has led over 73% of the laps on the track. The No. 9 car is the one to beat with speed intervals later in the races that […]

Alex Bowman Not Recommended for Watkins Glen

Alex Bowman does get a fortunate tenth place start on Sunday at Watkins Glen. However, that is where the fortune for the No. 48 may end. He could hover around the top ten but the average finish has been only 14th in his last two races on the track. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver struggled […]

Martin Truex Jr. Expects Better Result Sunday in Upstate New York

Martin Truex Jr. has to feel better after the Olympic Break. Not only does the Joe Gibbs Racing driver have two top-ten finishes in his last two road races, but he also races exceedingly well at Watkins Glen. Truex Jr. has finished second both times to Chase Elliott. The No. 19 even nearly got the […]

Aric Almirola Definitely an Unknown on Sunday at Watkins Glen

Aric Almirola had so much bad luck in 2021 that a little good luck came his way three weeks ago at New Hampshire. He found a way into the lead and stayed there as the Stewart-Haas Racing driver dashed to his first win of the season. With that, he vaulted up to 23rd in the […]

Christopher Bell a Threat to Surprise at Watkins Glen

Christopher Bell strung together three straight top-ten finishes for the first time in his career. Then, the Olympic Break hit. It will be intriguing to see what happens next. However, those finishes have kept Bell squarely on the good side of the bubble when it comes to "The Chase". With just four more races left […]

Denny Hamlin Likely to Contend at Watkins Glen

Denny Hamlin has a top-five finish in his last two races at Watkins Glen. Also, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver has some nice results this year on road tracks including a third at Daytona and a fifth recently in Wisconsin. The one concern may be laps led as Hamlin has not led more than ten […]

Kevin Harvick Starts Fifth Looking for a Win at Watkins Glen

The time is running out on Kevin Harvick if he wants to make "The Chase". He has no wins on the season and starts in fifth for Sunday's Go Bowling at The Glen. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver does have two top ten results his last time at the Upstate New York track with an average […]
