St. Louis Blues Head Into Two-Game Week

The St. Louis Blues will be the only team in the NHL with a two-game slate for next week and they won't see any game action before Friday, which is awful news for fantasy managers who have rostered Blues players.

Bradley Beal Exits Early Saturday Night

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal logged only 21 minutes in Saturday's win over the Pistons, leaving the game early in the third quarter due to a hip injury.
