LOS ANGELES (AP) — Edmonton Oilers center Leon Draisaitl is “out short term” but should return “well before” the playoffs begin after sustaining a lower-body injury against the San Jose Sharks the previous night, head coach Kris Knoblauch said Friday.

The University of Colorado under coach Deion “Prime” Sanders has become a showcase and if you ever forget that, all one has to do is see the big glowing letters on one of the sidelines of the team’s indoor practice facility that spells it out: S-H-O-W-C-A-S-E.
The coach and his program raised the curtain on its two biggest stars on Friday – quarterback Shedeur Sanders and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter – in the program’s pro day event.
It was supposed to be a S-H-O-W-C-A-S-E.

SAN ANTONIO — The gap in Rick Pitino’s resume when he left Kentucky to coach the Boston Celtics used to prompt hypothetical arguments on how many wins he’d have had he never left college basketball.
His most recent hiatus from 2017 to 2020 to coach professionally in Greece should provoke one too. What if he was never forced out of Louisville?
The Associated Press recognized Pitino as a co-Coach of the Year on Friday at the NCAA Tournament Final Four, an honor he shared with Auburn coach Bruce Pearl, for leading St.
In the early 1980s the actor and comedian Andy Kaufman reached out to wrestling promoter Jerry Jarrett with an unusual offer. Kaufman wanted to wrestle for Jarrett.
