On Friday, the Pittsburgh Steelers announced a pair of roster moves. The team released linebacker Kana’i Mauga from the practice squad and replaced him with former Pitt long snapper Cal Adomitis. This is in response to Steelers starting long snapper Christian Kuntz popping up on the Thursday practice report with a knee injury.
Admoitis spent his first three seasons as the full-time long snapper for the Cincinnati Bengals. He was waived by them after the 2024 season and then signed by the Philadelphia Eagles for the start of the 2025 season.

The Pittsburgh Penguins lost again on Thursday, dropping a 4-0 decision to the Ottawa Senators that was a concerning replay of Tuesday’s loss to the Edmonton Oilers. They fell behind early, showed little pushback, and quietly lost by multiple goals without much of a serious challenge. At least they have moved on from losing multiple goal leads to just simply losing by multiple goals. It is less stressful and infuriating that way.
It is also still not good, and it extends the current losing streak to seven games.

Never, ever assume there’s dead air. Thats the best lesson you can teach anyone in the radio industry, and yet you can make it all the way to being the announcer for an NHL team, while still struggling with that information.

That hasn’t stopped many from pointing out that college basketball’s March Madness has plenty of Cinderella stories.
