Hurricanes Return to Playoffs with a Vengeance
The second day of April 2025 saw two teams with a chance to join this year's Stanley Cup Playoff party. Four teams already locked in spots, with the most recent team being the Vegas Golden Knights. The Carolina Hurricanes were one of the two teams; they had been making some amazing moves during the year, but they still remained a strong force this season. The Canes had a number of chances earlier in the year, but were unable to punch a ticket in.

WrestleMania and the Stanley Cup Playoffs are Heading to Vegas
It really seems like yesterday that the Vegas Golden Knights debuted in the NHL, but it was actually eight years ago that Sin City received this franchise. This was quite a wild night in the NHL. Five teams--five teams---had a chance to clinch spots in this year's playoffs. Had all of them clinched, the playoff field would have been half full: eight teams in, eight spots remaining. However, the Montreal Canadiens winning against the Florida Panthers ended up killing four of the five teams' clinching scenarios, but there was still Vegas.

Are the Los Angeles Dodgers Ruining Baseball?
If you've been following my numerous stories about the Los Angeles Dodgers during the offseason, then you know that I've been their biggest critic. The 2025 MLB season has finally arrived, but a new wave of criticism hovers over the defending World Series Champions. In a recent article, one of the Dodgers' acquisitions had a response to the accusations and criticisms that the team is "ruining baseball." Kirby Yates, the relief pitcher who was traded from the Texas Rangers to the Dodgers during the offseason, had a blunt response to the online criticism by saying that the team didn't care about it, and he added that "haters are going to hate." He doesn't seem to understand or comprehend why this team has been receiving continuous backlash. And the "haters are going to hate" line is a bit dismissive and Kirby Yates is being a bit delusional.

Missed it by THAT Much
The Colorado Avalanche are one of the hottest teams in the league, having quite an amazing and impressive month of March. We entered Saturday afternoon coming off a huge shutout win over the Los Angeles Kings. The homestand continued on against the St. Louis Blues, who entered this meeting winning eight straight games and not knowing how to have a cool down. I am dead serious. Nobody expected the Blues to do, well, this. They tore it down about two years ago, yet here they are, above the playoff line, capitalizing from the faltering of the Canucks and Flames.
