Mike Babcock with a blunt message to his depth players about earning their chances offensively:
“That's what we're trying to do, and I think that's a great question. I think when you watch it, you're seeing one and done, one and done, one and done. You can't be one and done. You got to be heavy. And the hardest thing about the National Hockey League is no one lets you have the puck, and you're a young guy, you come in the league, you want to have the puck.
We're not giving it to you. You got to earn it. So you got to win races. You got to win battles. Your stick's got to be a crowbar. Every time you have a chance, you have to win that battle and check it back in the O-zone, and that's the fun zone. D-zone's the work zone. Hang out in the fun zone.” #LetsGoOilers

Mike Babcock on the importance of puck possession and making the most of offensive-zone opportunities the day after a 4-1 win over the LA Kings:
“We didn't play heavy enough in the O-zone. We didn't have any time in the O-zone. We were one and done too much, and the bottom line is a big part of the league is knowing that you have the puck. And when you're a young guy and you come to the league, you think you're going to have the puck. No, you're not. You got to earn the puck. When you get it, you got to hang on to it, or you got to back check and play defense. It's way more fun to play on offense, so hang on to the thing.” #LetsGoOilers

Welles Crowther was a former Boston College lacrosse player who had a trademark red bandanna.
He was also working in New York on Sept. 11, 2001 when terrorists struck the World Trade Center.
This is the story of how he led people to safety on that fateful day 25 years ago.

Barry was my best friend at ESPN. A big brother figure of rock solid values. I am shook to my core. Barry gave his life to hockey and some of his ESPN family, like me, learned of his shocking death today while at a hockey rink in Las Vegas preparing for the upcoming season. Chilling and fitting--the rink was Barry's home. A more beloved ESPN institution there has not been. We love you, Barry. Forever.

Scottie Scheffler was asked ahead of the Masters if he’s surprised himself with how quickly he became the best player in the world and not only did he give a great answer, but he also explained why pathways are so important:
“I mean, that's a good question. I think it's a hard one to answer. I always had faith and belief in myself, but I didn't -- I never told myself I want to win these tournaments. I always just had what I feel like were dreams and aspirations, and I feel like I had the talent to be able to accomplish certain things.
“I never really kind of thought this far ahead. I dreamed of having a chance to win the Masters tournament, and I'm fortunate to have been able to have done that twice. Did I imagine that? I imagined myself winning, and I was hopeful I could accomplish that, but I didn't set out, when I came off the Korn Ferry Tour, you know what, I'm going to get to No. 1 in the world. I'm going to win this many majors. I'm going to win this many tournaments.
“It was more taking it a step at a time. My manager was a big part of that as I turned pro. When I turned pro, I kind of went through all the steps. I tried some Monday qualifiers for the Korn Ferry Tour. I played some mini tour events to stay sharp. I went through Q-School, went through Korn Ferry Tour, and then I got out on the PGA Tour. Everything for me was step by step.
“The year I played on the Korn Ferry Tour, I had some opportunities to come out here and play on the PGA Tour, but my manager and I kind of spoke about just being -- you can only be on the Tour where you're at, and our goal that year was to continue to play good golf, focus on the Korn Ferry Tour, develop, get better, and then get ready for the PGA Tour.
“We just kind of took everything step by step, so I never really looked that far ahead, to be honest with you.”
Scottie Scheffler’s rise to the top happened fast but he had to work his way up from the bottom tiers of professional golf.
He turned pro in 2018 after graduating and played Monday Qualifiers for the Korn Ferry Tour, he then earned a card via Q School for 2019. That year he was Korn Ferry Tour Player of the Year and earned a PGA Tour card for the 2019/20 season where he was rookie of the year.
He then made his Ryder Cup debut in 2021, beating the then world number 1 Jon Rahm in the singles. That gave him the confidence to go on and win 3 times in early 2022 to overtake Jon and become world number 1 himself.
He then won the 2022 Masters by 3 shots over Rory McIlroy becoming just the 5th player in history to don the green jacket as the best player in the world and he’s never looked back.
Since the start of 2022 Scottie has won 25 times worldwide, including 4 majors, an Olympic gold medal and won The Players twice. He’s 3 legs towards the Career Grand Slam and looking to win his 3rd Masters title this week. He also has 16 top 10s in the 22 majors he’s played since 2020. Truly astonishing.
Scottie Scheffler is already one of the best players of all time and at every major championship he plays he is chasing more history.

“I would literally play men’s league hockey right now at 10 o’clock at night.”
Jordan Harris’ AHL assignment was more than welcome for the defenseman. It means he is one step closer.

The definitive Johnny Gaudreau forever young hockey moment. 12 years ago. He's 18 years old. Ices the 2012 NCAA Championship game. Comically quick feet, hands, and brain. His comp for me was always Allen Iverson--I covered both in college. Impossibly small and skinny (JG MIGHT be 140 pounds here) yet dominated the game and had GIGANTIC respect from his peers. Gaudreau was looked at as a freak and a savant who thought and played the game quicker than everyone else because he had to. Look at his face here--pure joy. A unique Christmas decoration who lit up the game whenever he hit the ice. With Johnny Gaudreau, there was always the possibility of a moment like this. An electric star who made the sport better by his art yet was grounded in his foundational principle: a big, loving family and countless friends is more important than anything. Humility and humanity personified. A son, brother, husband, father, and friend. For life.

When you grow up in a small town you think “ I can’t wait to leave the small Town”. What you can’t replace is the memories and people that make the place special.
Yesterday Winthrop took home a state title. Surrounded by thousands of Viking fans and supporters.
My nephew a freshman was able to be a part of this team.
What makes the story special is everyone in those stands would stand behind these kids at any moment.
In 2022 my nephew lost his mother to a courageous battle with cancer.
The senior goaltender has a story for the ages also losing his mother but the path he has took to be the best person/ student out there.
The list goes on ..
It’s more than just a game for these kids in this small town. It’s about the support the get from those around them during times of need.
It was an emotional day. But in the end “it’s for the town”. Congrats Vikings.
