Oilers ‘need to find another gear’ after being outclassed by Hurricanes

Published

EDMONTON — Too fast, too organized, too good.

Whatever it is that mysteriously stops this Carolina Hurricanes system from winning enough playoff games clearly does not apply to one-off regular-season meetings, as the hottest team in the NHL cut through the Edmonton Oilers like a hot knife through butter Friday in a 6-3 win.

The Oilers were totally outclassed on home ice, as Anaheim pulled five points clear of Edmonton atop the Pacific.

Two wins in eight games will do that to a team.

“We need to put together wins,” said an exasperated head coach Kris Knoblauch, who is dangerously close to becoming that coach who just can’t figure it out. “We’ve only got 20 games left, and we’re on the brink of not making playoffs.

“We can’t just wait to find our game in the playoffs, because we need to ultimately get there. So we need to find another gear.”

Carolina outshot Edmonton 32-16 and outscored them two to one as well. It figures, as the Canes were at worst twice as good as Edmonton.

Edmonton has now allowed at least four goals in 10 of its past 12 games — 56 goals total in the past dozen outings. They are 5-7 in that span, which is surprisingly good, but the fact remains that Edmonton’s defensive game is simply nowhere close to a level that could make the playoffs, let alone win series.

“Nobody wants to get scored against. We’re not trying to go out there and trying to let in five every night,” pleaded two-goal man Zach Hyman after the game. “There’s an effort there to be better. We’ve talked about it, and it’s just a matter of going out there and doing it — doing your job and trusting that the other guy is going to do their job.

“I can’t give you a magic answer, otherwise we wouldn’t be 10 games allowing five goals a game or whatever it is. It’s everything. It’s lapses, I can’t give you the answer because if I could, we’d be doing it.”

Edmonton broke in three new players in this game, all trade deadline week acquisitions: defenceman Connor Murphy (minus-2), centre Jason Dickinson (plus-1) and winger Colton Dach (minus-3). None of the three had a point or a shot on goal, though Knoblauch thought the Dickinson line with Vasily Podkolzin and Kasperi Kapanen was his best unit.

The energy those new players provided was likely squared off by the learning curve and unfamiliarity of a trio of players wearing an Oilers jersey for the first time.

On the Hurricanes’ side, their only acquisition — tough winger Nick Deslauriers — wasn’t even in town. So, Carolina had the same lineup playing that tightly organized Hurricanes system, though the locker room could not have been pleased with general manager Eric Tulsky’s inactivity at the deadline.

“I know there’s a lot of disappointment, I’m going to be honest,” head coach Rod Brind’Amour said before the game. “(The players) were hoping to see us make a splash. It’s tough. We’re one of the best teams in the league right now. Teams are making deals to try to catch us, and to try to catch the teams that are ahead of them, and that is us.

“On one side, it would be nice to throw your chips in and see if you could improve your team,” he said. “But we love the group we have. If you’re (making moves), it means you’re going to be disrupting that chemistry that I think we’ve done pretty well here. It’s behind us, and we’ve got to move on.”

The Hurricanes are indeed one of the NHL’s best regular-season teams, tops in the league with a 15-2-3 record in their previous 20 games. They are organized with excellent system play, and support each other better than any team we’ve watched this season.

For whatever reason, it’s a game plan that doesn’t produce enough wins in the post-season. But in a one-off regular-season game, these Canes run a system that keeps them at or near the top of the tables most seasons.

Looming for Edmonton now is a killer road trip through Vegas, Colorado, Dallas and St. Louis (on a back-to-back) from which they could come home well out of touch with the top of the Pacific.

“You look at our division, and it’s right there for us,” Hyman said. “The optimism is that we’re a team that has been to the Cup Final back-to-back. We’re a really good team (with) the pieces that we’ve added. It’s just a matter of putting it together and doing it.

“We’ve got to try and not ride the roller coaster and believe in the processes and believe in the group we have.”

Heavyweight who sparred Wardley and Dubois gives fight verdict: “He has unbelievable power”

Published

Fabio Wardley and Daniel Dubois collide in Manchester in two months’ time in what a sparring partner of both men calls a ‘barnstormer.’

Champion Wardley takes on challenger Dubois in one of the year’s standout heavyweight bouts, with extreme power in each corner and questions for both men to answer.

Wardley was elevated from interim to full WBO champion, and is looking to satisfy fans with a dangerous first defence. The best way to do that is by facing a genuine knockout puncher – something his record arguably lacks so far.

As for Dubois, the 28-year-old once again faced questions of his heart and grit under pressure when he lost for a second time to Oleksandr Usyk last year. A career-best performance prior to that against Anthony Joshua reminded us how devastating he can be, but many feel he has to deliver more consistency.

Speaking to Seconds Out, fan favourite heavyweight Johnny Fisher looked back on his experiences sparring both men.

“Great fight. Fabio – I’ve seen his rise. I’ve sparred him many times in the earlier days, four, five years ago. Daniel, obviously I’ve been around him in the Sims gym, been around and sparred him before that as well. It’s a fantastic match-up.
“People have written off Fabio Wardley many times. That’s probably not a wise thing to do, so I’m not going to do that. And Daniel Dubois – unbelievable, electric power that I’ve felt myself … It’s a barnstormer.”

Fisher, who did not make a prediction, went on to praise Wardley more.

“[Fabio] is everything that we see that he is – a warrior. His mental toughness, coming back from looking like you’re in trouble, to swinging and getting someone out of there… He’s also a great boxing technician, we’ve got to give him credit for that fight with Parker as well – not just knocking someone out, showing the skills to be a world class heavyweight.”

The fight has all the ingredients of a British heavyweight classic, with the winner targeting another major scalp later this year.

Canucks notch rare win after ‘stressful’ trade-deadline week

Published

38 minutes ago

7 March 2026

NewsAdmin

CHICAGO – The roiling, dark skies above Chicago flashed with lightning Friday evening. Incredibly, it was sunny around the Vancouver Canucks.

Blue-sky days have been rarer than wins for the Canucks this season. But the merciful passing of Friday’s National Hockey League trade deadline allowed the rain to pause above the Canucks, who took advantage of the break in the weather to beat the Chicago Blackhawks 6-3 in the first game of the rest of their season.

After the strain of this dismal season for the Canucks and the stifling stress of deadline week, when virtually all of their experienced players were mentioned in trade conjecture, and three – Tyler Myers, Conor Garland and David Kampf – were dealt elsewhere for draft picks, there was an obvious lightness around the team.

Judging by the boisterous cheers rolling into the hallway outside their dressing room at the United Center after the game, there was some honest-to-goodness joy, too.

“You could feel before the game that guys were just kind of, you know, excited to play and I think looking forward to the rest of the way here, just knowing this is the group we’re going with,” veteran winger Drew O’Connor said. “It felt good, kind of a weight off our shoulders.

“It was a stressful week. It’s kind of the first time I’ve been a part of it where you didn’t really know who was going to go and who was going to stay, and it was difficult. I think it was difficult on all of us leading up to this week. We lost some guys that have been here a long time and meant a lot to the organization, so that’s difficult. At same time, I think it’s a bit of a relief now that we know what our group is. We’ve got to move forward and try to build something. It was really nice to get the win tonight.”

The Canucks will meet their newest player, waiver pickup Curtis Douglas, Saturday in Winnipeg before Vancouver plays for the second time in less than 24 hours. Maybe the rain will be back, but not the storm.

They have some emotional clarity and some freedom now to just go play the final quarter of their season, even if it starts with them hopelessly last in the NHL standings.

Dangled as trade rentals since November, free-agent-eligible Canucks Teddy Blueger and Evander Kane were not jettisoned on Friday. General manager Patrik Allvin said he received no offers for them. He did, however, wrangle sixth-round picks from the Washington Capitals and Boston Bruins for Kampf and minor-leaguer Lukas Reichel, respectively.

“Yeah, a little bit,” Blueger smiled about three hours after taking the opening faceoff. “Nothing has changed with me wanting to be here and be a part of this group. I haven’t been here that long, but I feel like we’ve been through a lot of ups and downs with guys like Fil (Chytil) and Demmer (Thatcher Demko) and Brock (Boeser). You feel like you get close with guys when you go through stuff, both the ups and the downs. And as a person, I value loyalty, so that is something that definitely plays a role with me.”

Allvin has left open the possibility of the Canucks circling back on Blueger and seeing what it might cost to bring him back next season. Kane is gone – but not yet. Management’s plan is to have him finish the season in the NHL with the Canucks before the 34-year-old embarks on free agency.

Other veterans whose names had been cast on social media like breadcrumbs to pigeons this week, like Boeser, O’Connor, Jake DeBrusk, and Elias Pettersson, survived the deadline.

“Every time that deadline is done . . . there’s definitely a sense of relief,” DeBrusk said. “You know where you are; you don’t have to question anything. Obviously, there were some guys that didn’t know . . . and we lost some troops as well. So it’s a tough day.

“I don’t know if I agree with playing on the trade deadline day itself. Guys didn’t nap today (waiting for the deadline to pass). They (the Blackhawks) lost their captain, Nick Foligno. You’re looking at everything going on and, you know, obviously other guys in different positions are probably doing the same thing. (But) we have a job to do, and that’s what it is.”

The Canucks did the job Friday better than the Blackhawks, who traded their captain to the Minnesota Wild so the Foligno brothers, Marcus and Nick, can try and win a Stanley Cup together.

Boeser scored twice for the Canucks, capping the team’s third win in 24 games with an empty-netter. Fittingly, O’Connor, DeBrusk and Blueger all scored. Max Sasson also scored into an empty net while goalie Nikita Tolopilo, who stopped 20 of 23 shots, made his best saves at pivotal moments.

“Yeah, it’s so hard,” Boeser said of losing Myers and Garland this week. “Some of my closest friends over the years. It sucks. We kind of knew it was coming (but) we didn’t know who was going to go. We’ve got to make sure we’re looking forward now and really start to build this thing up.

“It’s nice to get (the deadline) past and now we can just focus on some better hockey.”

Mired in a poor season personally, like so many Canucks, Boeser suddenly has six goals in his last 11 games and is up to 15 goals for the season – two behind team leader, Kiefer Sherwood, who was traded to the San Jose Sharks on Jan. 19.

“I’ll catch him,” Boeser smiled.

He said it was “crazy” how few Canucks remain from the team that went two rounds deep in the Stanley Cup Playoffs less than two years ago.

“Someone posted the lineup of our playoff series against Edmonton, and how much has changed in just two years,” Blueger said. “Such a short period of time. Obviously, that’s not ideal, but that’s how it goes sometimes.”

The transaction Friday that will have the most immediate impact on the Canucks was the waiver claim of Douglas from the Tampa Bay Lightning. He is a six-foot-nine forward who has 92 penalty minutes (and two assists) in 29 games this season.

“With our young guys in the lineup … I want the players to feel safe,” Allvin explained. “I don’t want them to get beaten up. And we’ve been looking for a player like this with more size, physicality. So when he was available here … we felt that would be a good fit for us.”

Luka Doncic joins elite club with 44 points in Lakers win

NBA: Indiana Pacers at Los Angeles Lakers

Luka Doncic recorded 44 points, nine rebounds and three steals in three quarters of action to lead the Los Angeles Lakers to a solid 128-117 victory over the visiting Indiana Pacers on Friday night.

Doncic made seven 3-pointers and notched his 10th 40-point effort of the season to break a tie with Minnesota’s Anthony Edwards for the most this season. He also became the fourth different Laker to record 10 or more 40-point games in a season, joining a trio of Hall of Famers — Kobe Bryant (four times), Elgin Baylor (three) and Jerry West (three)

Doncic’s scoring was needed on a night in which the Lakers were without LeBron James (left elbow, left foot). James injured the elbow in a hard fall during Thursday’s loss to the Denver Nuggets.

Austin Reaves scored 11 of his 19 points in the fourth quarter before fouling out for Los Angeles, which won for the fourth time in the past five games. Luke Kennard had 15 points and seven rebounds off the bench, Rui Hachimura scored 13 points and Marcus Smart added 11.

Pascal Siakam scored 26 points for the Pacers, who lost their eighth straight game. Indiana has dropped the past five games by an average of 19.6 points.

Andrew Nembhard added 17 points and eight assists and Jay Huff scored 16 points for the Pacers. T.J. McConnell added 10 points off the bench for Indiana.

The Lakers, who also were without Deandre Ayton (left knee), shot 52.9% from the field and made 17 of 37 from 3-point range.

Indiana connected on 46.9% of its attempts but was just 8 of 35 from behind the arc.

Doncic was 5 of 5 from 3-point range and scored 22 points in the opening quarter as the Lakers led 35-27.

Doncic scored seven points in the second quarter to increase his output to 29 as Los Angeles led 64-51 at the break.

He tallied 15 points in the Lakers’ 35-point third quarter before exiting. He capped the period in style by banking in a 3-pointer with 5.5 seconds left as Los Angeles took a 99-80 advantage heading into the final quarter.

The Pacers were within 103-89 after a 3-pointer by Jarace Walker. However, Reaves scored nine points during an 11-2 surge as the Lakers pushed the lead to 114-91 with 7:34 left. The margin topped out at 24 before Indiana narrowed the score.

The Raiders will receive two first-round picks from the Ravens, including the No. 14 overall pick in next month’s NFL draft, one report said.

The 28-year-old Crosby had 10 sacks last season and has reached double digits four times in his seven seasons.

The Raiders last appeared in the playoffs back in 2021 but have gone 7-27 over the past two seasons. They have the No. 1 pick in the 2026 draft, which is expected to land them Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza.

The Ravens, meanwhile, are entering a new era, after firing longtime head coach John Harbaugh and replacing him with former Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter.

There was one out and one on in the first when Judge, the first player to commit to the team last April, connected off Bo Takahashi at Houston’s Daikin Park.

Lucas Ramirez homered twice for Brazil with his father, 12-time All-Star Manny Ramirez, in attendance. He cut the lead to 2-1 with his leadoff homer, and his solo shot in the eighth got Brazil within 8-5.

At 20 years, 49 days, he became the youngest player in WBC history with a multi-homer game.

Byron Buxton was hit by a pitch in the fifth to push the Americans’ lead to 4-1. Turang cleared the bases with his double to left field two pitches later to make it 7-1.

Brazil is in the WBC for just the second time and first since 2013. The team fell to 0-4 all-time in the tournament after losing to Japan, Cuba and China in 2013.

Another highlight for Brazil came when 17-year-old high school senior Joseph Contreras got Judge to ground into a bases-loaded double play to end the second inning. Contreras, the youngest player in the WBC this year, is the son of pitcher José Contreras, who played 11 MLB seasons.

By Kath Hudson 07 Mar 2026

Beat the Streets launches in five more locations this spring

Founded by Dr William Bird, it turns every journey into a game

Offering free participation, it has been proven to engage individuals from the most deprived communities

In 2025, social value was calculated at £321.80 per adult

Beat the Streets has announced plans to launch in a number of new towns this spring.

Bloxwich launched in February and will be followed by Colchester on 11 March. Hendon and Grangetown; Penzance and St Austell will all launch later this month.

Beat the Streets turns towns and cities into a giant game with friendly competition to see how far an individual or their team can walk, run or cycle around their community, turning every journey into a game.

First introduced near Reading in 2013, it has now reached two million adults and children in more than 200 places across the world.

It was the brainchild of Dr William Bird, who founded Intelligent Health in 2010 to create a world where every community is designed for health, and every individual has the agency and the environment to flourish.

An analysis of nine programmes in 2024/25 showed that 40 per cent of registered participants came from the 20 per cent most deprived communities. Children from the most deprived areas (IMD 1–2), demonstrated a 7 per cent reduction in the proportion classified as less active and the rate of children achieving more than 60 minutes of daily activity increased by 8.4 percentage points.

On average, programmes engage 12 per cent of the population and 68 per cent of adult players were women.

The social value was calculated at £321.80 per adult participant and extrapolated to 54,365 adult players this generated an estimated wellbeing value of around £17.5 million.

The game is free for all players and for partners purchasing the programme for their area, the average cost to engage a participant was £12.73 in 2024/25.
