Stars turn former weakness into strength, rally to beat Oilers in Game 1: Takeaways
DALLAS — Dallas Stars coach Pete DeBoer had a very quick response when asked before Game 1 what he had learned from last spring’s Western Conference final loss to the Oilers.“Don’t go 0-for-14 on the power play,” he said.How does 3-for-4 sound?The Stars scored three power-play goals in the first six minutes of the third period to turn a 3-1 deficit into a stunning 4-3 lead, and went on to win 6-3 on Wednesday — their second straight Game 1 victory after dropping eight in a row. Game 2 is Friday night at American Airlines Center.AdvertisementThe trio of power-play goals was even more remarkable given how horrendous the Dallas power play had been through the first two periods — the Stars could barely get any time in the offensive zone with the man advantage, let alone get a shot on […]
Christian Pulisic missing Gold Cup: Bad look for the player, bad break for USMNT
Christian Pulisic has long been the tone-setting player on this U.S. men’s national team, a leader by example who has been counted on in the program’s biggest moments.With just more than a year left to prepare for the World Cup, however, the U.S. will have to work its way out of a major slump without its most important player.AdvertisementPulisic will not be a part of the U.S.’s Gold Cup roster, sources confirmed to The Athletic on Wednesday night.

The hope is that resting Pulisic in the Gold Cup will give him a better chance at being healthy for next season and, […]
NFL to reward its ‘unsung heroes’ with an OL Protector of the Year Award
<!--> Offensive linemen may get acknowledged and credited by their teammates and coaches, but they don't often receive recognition from the external NFL community and have never won individual accolades for their efforts. In 2025, that will change. The NFL introduced the Protector of the Year Award at the league's spring meeting on Wednesday. It will be given to the best offensive lineman each season and handed out at the annual NFL Honors event, alongside the Most Valuable Player, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and many other prestigious achievements. "We might not have all the fancy stats or end up on a highlight reel every week," Buffalo Bills tackle Dion Dawkins said. "But without us, there's no rushing titles, passing titles, or touchdowns."

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander winning the MVP award is another team victory for the Thunder
OKLAHOMA CITY — It wasn’t a shock to see Shai Gilgeous-Alexander win his first Most Valuable Player award, and usually these things follow a script of sorts.There were tears — referencing his wife.There was the praise for his teammates, who sat with him on the stage as he talked about his road.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAnd there was also the bling, but that was a bit different. It wasn't his own, but that of his teammates, who were sporting new Rolexes as a gift from Gilgeous-Alexander for winning the MVP trophy.Usually you see this in other sports, when a running back reaches 2,000 yards or a quarterback wins MVP, they gift their offensive lineman something as a token of thanks. It happens in basketball, too, but this took a little more gumption from Gilgeous-Alexander.The conversations began in earnest last season on the team bus, […]
