As 2019 comes to a close, we’re taking a look back at the past decade. We’ll remember the best players and teams, most significant goals, and biggest transactions that have happened since 2010. Let us know your memories in the comments. Best Hockey Trades Seth Jones for Ryan Johansen The Nashville Predators and Columbus Blue Jackets each had a glaring need and were able to help each other when Seth Jones and Ryan Johansen were traded for one another. From Columbus’ perspective, Johansen was not a favorite of coach John Tortorella and already had a lengthy contract dispute. Nashville had an abundance of talent on the blueline and needed to find a top line centerman. When a trade of this magnitude happens, one team usually regrets the move but, in this situation, both teams were left quite pleased. Martin St. Louis for Ryan Callahan It takes a lot of extenuating circumstances for two teams in the thick of a playoff race to trade their captains, but in 2014, the … [Read more...] about Best NHL trades of the decade 2010s | ProHockeyTalk | NBC Sports

NBA offseason winners and losers: Rockets loving the Brooklyn chaos, Jazz set up for multiple rebuild routes
USATSI One thing not a lot of people are talking about with all the Brooklyn Nets drama is how much the Rockets stand to benefit. Houston owns Brooklyn's 2024 and 2026 first-round picks as well as the right to swap first-round picks with the Nets in 2023, 2025 and 2027. If the Nets get worse, which looks like a certainty once Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are traded, those picks that Houston owns suddenly become a lot more valuable. That makes Houston but one of many offseason winners as we're into Day 4 of the free agency period. We'll slowly be factoring in draft results as we flesh out this full list of 2022 offseason winners and losers. This post will continue to update. Here's what we have so far.

Jesse Puljujarvi is the player you want to trade for this offseason
It seems quite likely that Jesse Puljujarvi has played his last game as a member of the Edmonton Oilers. There are a number of factors at play here including Edmonton’s salary cap crunch, his status as a restricted free agent, as well as the fact there seems to be an equal amount of mutual frustration from both sides. When there is this much smoke, there is usually a reason for it. Assuming the Oilers do move him in the coming days, weeks, or months, it has the potential to be a regrettable move for them and a nice win for the team that acquires him on the cheap. Just how cheap? According to Sportsnet’s Mark Spector this past week, the market for Puljujarvi seems to range somewhere between a second-or third-round pick , which is a price that almost any team in the league should be willing to gamble on. They should be willing to do that even if the price is higher. For starters, the odds of a second-or third-round pick (or even a mid-late first-round pick) turning into a … [Read more...] about Jesse Puljujarvi is the player you want to trade for this offseason
Report: Raptors believe they can make best offer for Kevin Durant
Kevin Durant may have given Brooklyn a two-team wish list with his trade demand — Phoenix and Miami — but the Nets are under no obligation to abide by his wishes. Durant is under contract for four more years, and the Nets’ priority must be to get the best return in a trade package they can. Which is why the Toronto Raptors are in the conversation . The Raptors — rightfully — believe they can put together a more enticing trade package than any other team, reports Michael Grange at SportsNet . On top of ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reporting Friday that the Raptors are ‘lurking’ in the background of the Kevin Durant trade discussions that have held the NBA hostage in recent days, I can confirm that not only are the Raptors ‘lurking,’ but they also feel they can put together the best package of assets the Brooklyn Nets are likely to get. Confidence isn’t the word for it, but optimism might be. The Raptors’ offer would be based around All-NBA forward Pascal Siakam and wing … [Read more...] about Report: Raptors believe they can make best offer for Kevin Durant
How Kumar Rocker went from top-10 pick in 2021 to one of MLB draft’s biggest mysteries in 2022
Getty Images It's almost here. Yes, Major League Baseball's draft (scheduled to begin on Sunday, July 17), but also the conclusion of Kumar Rocker's year-long odyssey that has seen him transition from the class's most overexposed prospect to a relative mystery. Rocker has been on the national radar since 2019 when he threw a 19-strikeout no-hitter in the NCAA Super Regionals as a member of Vanderbilt's staff. Last summer, he was drafted by the New York Mets with the 10th overall pick in the 2021 MLB Draft. A post-draft physical revealed something that the Mets did not want to see, however, and caused negotiations between the two sides to fizzle. The Mets were compensated with the 11th pick in this summer's draft while Rocker retained his draft eligibility for yet another season, ensuring he'll be picked for the third time. (He was a late-round selection by the Colorado Rockies out of high school but did not sign.) Rocker had a few options ahead of him, including … [Read more...] about How Kumar Rocker went from top-10 pick in 2021 to one of MLB draft’s biggest mysteries in 2022

MLB DFS: Top DraftKings and FanDuel daily Fantasy baseball picks, lineup advice for Sunday, July 3, 2022
USATSI New York Mets fans were given good news this weekend when they announced that Matt Scherzer (oblique) has been activated and is on target to pitch on Tuesday. That was coupled with the report that Jacob deGrom (shoulder) is nearing a return as well, and is pitching in a rehab start on Sunday. In the meantime, Carlos Carrasco will make his 16th start of the year for New York this afternoon against the Texas Rangers , but is he worth considering in MLB DFS lineups? For the month of June, Carrasco has a 6.37 ERA, opposing hitters have a .945 OPS against him, and he's averaged just under five innings pitched per start. However, four Rangers batters in the MLB DFS player pool have all had at least 13 at bats against him, and the only one to hit over .200 against him is spot-player Brad Miller . In total, seven Rangers players have logged at bats against Carrasco and have collective batting splits of .181/.212/.252.

Russell Wilson has top-selling jersey in 2022 – ProFootballTalk
Getty Images Tom Brady ‘s hammerlock on jersey sales has been broken. Another veteran quarterback who has changed teams has taken the lead. NFL Shop has announced the best-selling jerseys for 2022. Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson has emerged in the top spot. The remainder of the top 10 consists of all but two quarterbacks: (2) Bills quarterback Josh Allen; (3) Raiders receiver Davante Adams ; (4) Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett ; (5) Brady; (6) Patriots quarterback Mac Jones ; (7) Rams receiver Cooper Kupp ; (8) Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert ; (9) Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes ; and (10) Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow . It’s surprising that Pickett, who likely won’t be the Week One starter in Pittsburgh, landed higher on the list than Brady. Brady’s 40-day retirement probably cost him more than a few sales. It’s also surprising that Burrow is so low; he’s currently one of the most-hyped, most-liked young players in the league.
