May 6, 2025; Las Vegas, Nevada, USA; Edmonton Oilers right wing Connor Brown (28) skates against the Vegas Golden Knights during the first period of game one of the second round of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs at T-Mobile Arena. Mandatory Credit: Stephen R. Sylvanie-Imagn Images Edmonton forward Connor Brown, who has been sidelined by an undisclosed injury, practiced on Sunday and will be available when the Oilers play the visiting Florida Panthers in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday.
Brown, 31, missed the final two games of the Oilers’ five-game series against the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference finals, which concluded last Thursday. He exited Game 3 in the second period on May 25 after a thunderous hit from Stars defenseman Alex Petrovic that sent him to the ice.
I feel good,” Brown said after Sunday’s session. “Nice to get a practice in with the team. Obviously, I haven’t been practicing much. It’s nice to get it going. I’m excited.”
Brown has eight points (five goals, three assists) in 14 playoff games. He totaled 30 points (13 goals, 17 assists) and a plus-9 rating while playing in all 82 games during the regular season.
His spot on the third line has been filled by Viktor Arvidsson at right wing with center Adam Henrique and left wing Evander Kane. The Oilers are without forward Zach Hyman, who had surgery after sustaining an upper-body injury in Game 4 against the Stars.
“I’ve got no idea what the line combinations are,” said Brown, who skated with the fifth line on Sunday. “Obviously, I’m not trying to put my coaching hat on or anything like that. It’s just my job to be ready to go.”
“I think he will be fine,” Edmonton coach Kris Knoblauch said. “Obviously, you saw him on the ice and double shifting, and I’m pretty sure and confident that he will be fine for Game 1.”

Any why wouldn't he?Canady completed her junior campaign with a 1.11 earned run average and over 300 strikeouts.

Satisfakce pro Noska. Peprná nadávka a slova obdivu k floridskému hrdinovi
Centr čtvrté lajny byl v prvním utkání za smolaře, když v závěru 1. prodloužení vyhodil puk přes plexisklo, a prohřešek českého útočníka trestal v přesilovce Leon Draisaitl. Pro Noska to byly krušné dva dny mezi zápasy, ale v těžké chvíli měl zastání u spoluhráčů i kouče Paula Maurice, kterého vůbec nenapadlo, že by Noska nechal ve druhém souboji sedět na tribuně.„Byl to jeden z nejtěžších momentů v mé kariéře, to nebudu lhát. V tu chvíli jsem prostě nechtěl být tím, kdo udělal chybu, navíc ve finále. Ale před druhým zápasem jsem si řekl: S.át na to! Pardon… Prostě jsem to hodil za hlavu a snažil se soustředit a udělat maximum, abych pomohl vyhrát další zápas,“ řekl Nosek.Přispěl k tomu 4 vyhranými buly ze sedmi, předvedl i osm bodyčeků, nejvíc z Panthers. A taky jednou mířil mezi tyče hájené Stuartem Skinnerem. Celkem odehrál 13:13 minuty, ale třináctky mu smůlu nepřinesly. I když v čase 59:42 při vyrovnávacím gólu domácího Coreyho Perryho mu do […]

Simpson: Beat Zucco, Sheeraz, then Eubank Jr’s a possible fight
Callum Simpson believes winning the European championship is the key to unlocking career-defining fights.Simpson is already hugely popular in his Barnsley hometown. On Saturday, live on Sky Sports, he headlines at Oakwell Stadium when he takes on unbeaten Italian Ivan Zucco for the European super-middleweight. He hopes a European title win over Ivan Zucco can set up an all-British showdown with rival super-middleweight Hamzah Sheeraz.

Itoje: Lions captain, trailblazer, wind-up merchant and husband
It's been quite the few weeks for Maro Itoje.Named British and Irish Lions captain and then tying the knot with wife Mimi, it would be hard to script a better summer if he leads his pack to a series win in Australia.
