It actually happened. Restricted free agent center of the New York Rangers, Derek Stepan, actually decided to wise up and agree to a two-year contract worth $6.15 million, $3.075 million per season. While some questioned GM Glen Sather‘s tactics of bashing Stepan on live television during a Rangers preseason game, it obviously worked, as just a few days [...]
Should Milwaukee Brewers’ Carlos Gomez Be Suspended For Tirade?
On Wednesday night, Carlos Gomez of the Milwaukee Brewers did something I have never seen in all of my years of watching baseball. With one out in the top of the first inning in a game against the Atlanta Braves, Gomez took perhaps the violent cut I’ve ever seen at an 0-1 pitch from Paul Maholm, crushing it out [...]
Why The New York Rangers Will Have To Fight For A Playoff Spot Yet Again
The New York Rangers organization and a lot of their fans have demonized former head coach John Tortorella and made his conservative system, rather than the actual players on the team, the scapegoat for another disappointing season last year. After watching the Rangers first four preseason games, I am now believing that last year was not all [...]
New York Yankees Not Making Playoffs Is Sweet Justice?
After the New York Yankees lost to the Tampa Bay Rays by a 8-3 last night, the Yankees were officially eliminated from playoff contention. So, has justice now been served, better late than never, now that the Yankees are not going to the playoffs this season? What I mean by this is, of course, the [...]
New York Rangers: Chris Kreider’s Subpar Preseason A Bad Sign of Things To Come?
For a few years now, the New York Rangers have been going through a youth movement that is starting to see some results. Derek Stepan (even though he is currently still a restricted free agent) and Ryan McDonagh are just two prime examples of the Rangers’ youth, emerging as two of the team’s top players. Another young [...]
New York Rangers’ Marc Staal Very Impressive This Preseason
Yes, I know it’s only the preseason but regardless, I am truly impressed by the play of Marc Staal thus far, and I am overwhelmingly positive the New York Rangers organization is as well. After Staal’s horrific eye injury last season which doctors said would never fully heal, I did not think he would ever [...]
Stu Bickel Horrible In New York Rangers’ Preseason Loss To Calgary Flames
When your hear the name Stu Bickel, it usually laughter follows. This might be because his name sounds like a cartoon character but also it is because he just flat out cannot play hockey. His inconsistency seems to be the only thing Bickel brings to the table night in and night out for the New York Rangers, [...]
Seattle Seahawks’ Defense Is A Force To Be Reckoned With
The Seattle Seahawks are a team that will contend for 1st place in the NFC West throughout the entire regular season with the San Francisco 49ers, and will even be Super Bowl contenders all without having a offense that would wow you. Yes, the Seahawks have Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch, but with a lack [...]
