    Anthony Beauvillier is 19 years old and barely over two games into his NHL career, but tonight he’s already got a lifetime keepsake. The New York Islanders 2015 draft pick (28th overall) scored his first NHL goal by driving the net on his backhand after a feed from Josh Bailey. He converted by shoveling the puck toward the net, chopping at the rebound, and Jedi mind-tricking the puck into the net behind San Jose Sharks goalie Aaron Dell, a fellow rookie making his NHL debut. The goal came at a ..

    The Dodgers are up 2-1 over the Cubs, and here's what recent history tells us
    There are times where I have to choose between traffic and my desire to annoy a large section of readers. This is not one of those times. By pointing out the teams that have come back from a 2-1 deficit in a best-of-seven postseason series over the last 20 years, I’m appealing to Cubs fans who aren’t quite ready to hate their team yet. They’re the ones who want to believe this still might be the year. Because, dammit, it still could be, and here’s some evidence to back up the claim. At the same..

    Injuries: Eddie Lacy to miss several weeks; Big Ben out
    Eddie Lacy made headlines Sunday with his pair of hurdles in a disappointing loss to Dallas. He's back in the news Tuesday, but not for good reason. After coach Mike McCarthy said that the Packers running back would not practice Tuesday due to ankle soreness, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported that Lacy could miss several weeks, not just Thursday night's game against the Bears.  Rapoport added that Lacy's ailment is "more than a sprained ankle." Lacy was a question mark before Sunday's c..

    Why Bayern Munich are suddenly struggling under Carlo Ancelotti
    After a pair of ugly, disconcerting draws in the Bundesliga and a humbling Champions League defeat at Atletico Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti and Bayern Munich are officially in their first little mini-crisis together. That might sound counterintuitive, as Bayern still lead the Bundesliga in points, goals scored and goals allowed, but a look at the table belies an uncomfortable reality for the four-time defending champions: the transition from Pep Guardiola to Ancelotti has been tougher than anticip..
