It was time. The Blue Jays have big uncertainties to start the season with several key pitchers being unavailable, and it was still decided Little had to go down. That shows just how bad the struggle has been.

Might have to break into the piggy bank to grab the last few dollars needed for a ticket. #WorldCup2026

As announced on After Hours, legendary Hockey Night in Canada broadcaster Scott Oake is retiring following the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Next Saturday night will be Scott’s final episode of After Hours. Congratulations, Scott, on a remarkable career! 🙌

The video is posted at the top of this story, but @ScottOake announced tonight that he is retiring at the end of the playoffs. He will host one more After Hours, next Saturday in San Jose. Lots more will come to celebrate his incredible legacy, on and off the ice sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/sc…

Jack Nicklaus has posted a video message on Instagram to celebrate re-acquiring the Nicklaus Companies: “You may have heard that I’ve re-acquired the businesses of the company I founded over 50 years ago, the Nicklaus Companies. “Everything I’ve done in my career and life has been about family and building a legacy. And today, the Nicklaus Companies, are back in the hands of my family and me.” Jack Nicklaus was awarded $50 million in a defamation lawsuit against the Nicklaus Companies back in October, and he was then cleared to buy the assets of the firm for $35.7 million. Jack won 18 majors including 2 US Amateurs and his LLC named “20 majors” has acquired his name, image and likeness as of March 2026, as well as his golf design business, ending the corporate litigation.

JO ADELL JUST ROBBED A THIRD HOME RUN TONIGHT HE JUMPED INTO THE STANDS 🤯

@jadyn1953 @TheOGMaurice @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL No point arguing, yet here you still are - arguing, if not outright complaining... now taking the "woe is me' I wanted happiness" tangent. It was about communities in need of arena rebuilds, nothing more, nothing less. Democratic voting made the decision.

@SportsNiagara @TheOGMaurice @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL No point arguing. I guess my thoughts are still with the families who lost loved ones and kids who lived through something no child should live through. Its obvious I'm wrong that bringing happiness to the community could have been accomplished by bringing a game to them as well.

Congratulations to Taber, Alberta, winner of Kraft Hockeyville 2026! 🥳 @hockeyville | #KraftHockeyville

@jadyn1953 @TheOGMaurice @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL They did do something good for both communities. The consolation prize was $100k which was noted right off the top... which, according to you money is not important. I guarantee the town officials and people of Tumbler Ridge would disagree with that assertion.

@TheOGMaurice @SportsNiagara @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL Im sorry. I didnt realize I wasn't allowed to have an opinion. And I never once said Taber didnt deserve it. I just thought this was a perfect time for them to do something good for both communities. My bad I should have known better.

@nut_history He won with the Mets... but he's an Expo.

Which team do you associate Gary Carter with?

@TheOGMaurice @jadyn1953 @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL True. And, $100k for Tumbler Ridge is a very nice consolation prize to help them with their arena improvements. Guaranteed the town officials will gladly take it and be appreciative of it.

@jadyn1953 @SportsNiagara @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL It’s a vote. Not pity

The L.A. Kings with an epic troll chirp. 😂🤣😂

Sparks flying earlier tonight on the set of Hockey Night in Canada between Kevin Bieksa and Jennifer Botterill. They really don't seem to like one another, and it was on full display when the topic of shot blocking came up and Bieksa had a much different opinion on it. 😂 #NHL

The PWHL takes the World's Most Famous Arena.

The New York Knicks will not raise an NBA Cup championship banner at Madison Square Garden, sources tell ESPN. The Lakers and Bucks raised banners for NBA Cup titles over the last two years. Knicks will celebrate with home fans Friday.

Game 7 is Tuesday... not Monday.

Trent Enns was the hero for the St. Catharines Falcons, scoring his 1st goal of the GOHL playoffs, giving the visitors a 4-3 overtime win over the Meteors in Fort Erie to force a deciding Game 7 Monday night in St. Catharines. All 3 Falcons' wins in the series have come in OT.

@KevinBayne Yes. Thanks.

@SportsNiagara Game 7 is Tuesday

@jadyn1953 @Sportsnet @hockeyville @NHL The voters made their decision.

@SportsNiagara @Sportsnet @hockeyville It wasn't about the money. It was about giving the community a sense of healing. Not everything is about money @NHL

MATTHEW. FREAKING. SCHAEFER. 🤩 He now has the most points EVER by an 18-year-old defenseman!

That's a wrap for the Niagara IceDogs in 2025-26. The 'Dogs were blasted 5-0 against the Colts in Barrie tonight. Barrie wins the OHL playoff series 4-1.

That's the excitement of a 3-on-3 overtime with end to end rushes. Nylander was sent in alone on a clear cut breakaway, but was stopped by Kuemper. The Kings then got a 3=on=2 the other way with Byfield hitting the easy tap-in for the Kings' 7-6 victory. #NHL
