NFL needs to figure out this replay assist vs. challenge thing ASAP

@BrandonMileski Especially when the ball is still in the QB’s hands.

I'm all for protecting quarterbacks, but "body weight" is the dumbest rule change the NFL made.

Why no replay assist? Why a challenge?

Might be better that I’m in Japan for this one.

Two amazing hockey games … and then this garbage.

I’m all for Van Gundy explaining how that’s “not a playoff foul” while Ant was complaining. But to stay silent on a pair of ticky-tack fouls at the other end right after that? Come on.

Love this. Of course, it was pre-NIL.

@BrianHalverson @espn @ESPNRefNHL Something about Hartman tying up the Vegas player’s stick and that player reacting to that, I guess?

I’m not watching on @espn but I’m seeing post saying that waste of space brotherhood apologist @ESPNRefNHL was excusing this as a legal play. 🙄

So if you get careless with your stick, hit someone in the face and draw blood, it’s 4 minutes. If you deliberately cross-check someone in the face and draw blood, you play on? Got it.

Let’s bring in our rules analyst to speculate about what kind of injury the linesman suffered. Huh?

Pondering the Portal, by @puckato open.substack.com/pub/puckato/p/…

Per the story: “According to NHL Stats, since 1927, when the Stanley Cup was competed for solely by NHL teams, there have been 151 players who made their NHL debut in the playoffs.” … I’ll add: One of those players was @Ryan_Carter22 and it’s why his name is on the Stanley Cup.

FIRST NHL GAME, FIRST NHL GOAL FOR SAM MORTON! 🚨 And his family LOVED it! 🇺🇸: @espn ➡️ plus.espn.com 🇨🇦: @Sportsnet or stream on Sportsnet+ ➡️ watch.sportsnet.ca

SECOND-team All-American? Wow.

Tracy Named AHCA/CCM All-American #TheBest 📒: msumavericks.com/news/2025/4/11…

And if you’re saying, but the CCHA … Tracy’s nonconference stats were almost as consistent as his overall numbers: 5-4-0, 2 shutouts, .941, 1.49 (overall 26-9-3, 5 shutouts, .946, 1.42)

Undersized, non-NHL prospect goalie from Minnesota State with the best numbers in the country loses out on the Richter Award. #evergreentweet

Well, he certainly wasn’t the studio guys’ pick just now.

@AndreRueda37 Really? Rhett Pitlick in that category, Andre?

@puckato Anyone that was the worst player on their team in the Big 10 or NCHC we want YOU!

Mavericks fans absolutely hating on the portal right now, yet the CCHA's best F and 4 more of their top 7 scorers and second-best D (and another regular D) were transfers this season. It cuts both ways.
