Rulík slaví postup Floridy. Jeho další zlatý hoch může na MS
Jako přes kopírák. V pátém utkání Panthers zvítězili v Kanadě 6:1 a v noci na pondělí našeho času si dominantní výhru v sedmém a rozhodujícím duelu ve Scotiabank Areně zopakovali. Tučným písmem se pod ní podepsal Eetu Luostarinen a radost svému bývalému spoluhráči z Bostonu Davidu Pastrňákovi udělal Brad Marchand. Oba si připsali gól a dvě asistence.V první třetině to na krasojízdu obhájce prvenství nevypadalo. Hosty výrazně podržel gólman Sergej Bobrovskij, který vyčapal šanci Scotta Laughtona a především zlikvidoval samostatný únik Stevena Lorentze.Prostřední část už patřila Floridě, v jejíž čtvrté lajně se znovu objevil pardubický odchovanec Tomáš Nosek. Soupeře srazila na kolena hned třemi góly. Skóre utkání otevřel po třiadvaceti minutách přesným zásahem z kruhu obránce Seth Jones, který pláchl po křídle. Na 2:0 zvýšil Anton Lundell, k němuž se odrazil puk po zákroku Josepha Wolla. Brankový účet druhé dvacetiminutovky uzavřel po Jonah Gadjovich po ukázkové přihrávce Anthony Johna Greera.Na začátku posledního dějství snížil […]

A surprising Nuggets run ended with a fatal flaw exposed. Fixing it might be tricky
OKLAHOMA CITY — The handshakes and hugs among the Denver Nuggets rolled through a silent locker room one by one Sunday evening, as a group pushed to the brink so many times this season acknowledged that an almost improbable playoff run was finished. In the coming weeks and months, Denver as an organization will look to tackle a pivotal offseason. The Nuggets need to hire a head coach. They need to settle on a general manager. They need to figure out what has to happen to get an NBA championship-level core to another NBA championship.AdvertisementBut, at some point, the lack of depth, the lack of able bodies, was going to catch up to this Nikola Jokić and Jamal Murray-led group. It was almost a certainty. You simply can’t keep playing six or seven guys 40 or more minutes a night […]

NHL Playoffs 2025: Seth Jones’ big game powers Panthers past Maple Leafs, leads 3 Stars of the Night
Getty Images The Florida Panthers are advancing to the Eastern Conference Final for the third consecutive season. The Panthers mauled the Maple Leafs, 6-1, in front of the Toronto faithful on Sunday night.The biggest thorn in Toronto's side in this one was Florida defenseman Seth Jones, who played one of the best games of his career. Jones was active offensively, scoring a goal and adding an assist. He was also brilliant defensively, dominating his five-on-five minutes and quickly transitioning from defense to offense after turnovers.Additionally, Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov once again showed how much he means to his team. While absorbing the toughest matchups, he still managed to make an impact on the scoreboard without giving up an inch.For the fourth straight game, Sergei Bobrovsky was almost unbeatable in goal for the Cats. To Florida's credit, Bobrovsky didn't see too […]
Lionel Messi, in rare interview, says reeling Inter Miami will ‘come through this’
<!--> Lionel Messi isn't happy right now. After Inter Miami was routed 3-0 by Orlando on Sunday night and fell to 1-5-1 in its last seven matches across all competitions, the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner and 2022 World Cup champion — who rarely gives interviews after matches — told Apple TV that it's imperative for the team to stick together."It’s a difficult time, but we’re going to come through this," Messi said in Spanish. "Now we’ll really see if we’re a team. These are difficult times. When everything is going well it’s very easy, but when difficult times come — like now — we have to be more united than ever, be a real team, and get through it."Inter Miami fell to 6-3-4 in Major League Soccer this season, sixth in the Eastern Conference. Messi's team set an MLS record […]
