Mike Babcock isn’t one to mince words.
What a big secret I just let slip, just for fun!
Seriously, though, we all know this guy's reputation. We know he's always been pretty tough on his players, and that's not going to change in Edmonton.
Basically, Babcock threw Jake Walman under the bus by saying he's always out of position. And it's pretty simple: to get his point across, Babcock decided to bench his defenseman tonight, as the Oilers host the Flames at home.
But there's still something rat

In World Series history, no team has ever come back from a 0-3 deficit to force a Game 6.The Rays are the 44th team to fall behind 3-0 in a best-of-seven postseason series and

Salary figures are skyrocketing in the NHL.
Why? Because the NHL and the players are trying to get back on track after the pandemic derailed their momentum. They want to make up for lost time and grow the league.
That makes sense.
Still, we can all agree that the increase is staggering. From $88 million in 2024–2025 to $95.5 million in 2025–2026, this season's cap stands at $104 million.
It will likely be $113.5 million in 2027–2028, and we can expect the cap to reach $127.5 million in 202

In a groundbreaking initiative, the UK plans to unveil a pioneering spacecraft in 2029, designed specifically for the cleanup of space debris. Utilizing advanced robotic arms, the mission aims to snatch up and incinerate inactive satellites, tackling the escalating issue of orbital pollution that threatens current satellite operations. A nationwide competition to name the spacecraft is in progress, underscoring the project's significance in fostering sustainable space practices.

In a significant ecological feat, the Penobscot River restoration in Maine has revitalized migratory fish numbers dramatically. The removal of the Great Works and Veazie dams has paved the way for essential fish migration pathways once again. As a result, the population of river herring has surged from just 556 to over 5 million.

Youssef Siher è uscito dal carcere. La gip Tiziana Landoni ha rigettato la richiesta di convalida del fermo e l’applicazione della misura cautelare in carcere proposta dalla procura e il ricercatore è tornato in libertà. L’ordinanza ha smontato punto per punto la ricostruzione dei pm: “Ha evocato la ‘disobbedienza civile’, non ha istigato alla violenza”, scrive la giudice. Ne hanno parlato, in una diretta sul canale YouTube de il Fatto Quotidiano, Peter Gomez e Andrea Borello. Qui

Residents of Tungkillo, South Australia, are concerned about a proposed data centre that could disrupt their dark-sky reserve. The development may introduce light and noise pollution that affects the rural landscape. Community members believe preserving their unique nighttime environment is crucial for stargazing and natural experiences. The project's economic benefits are being weighed against potential environmental impacts. Ongoing discussions will determine the future of digital infrastructu

A rock found on Goodenough Island indicates an unexpected thermal gradient change during its descent deep within Earth's crust. Researchers estimated that this rock traveled over 90 kilometres into a subduction zone about 4.4 million years ago. Initial warm conditions shifted to a cold thermal regime as it descended further into the Earth. Both shearing stress and the youth of the subduction zone may explain this temperature change.

Het Openbaar Ministerie (OM) wil de beloning voor de gouden tip over Bolle Jos mogelijk verhogen naar minimaal twee miljoen euro. Dat is tien keer zoveel als nu. Met het enorme bedrag hopen politie en justitie vooral mensen in West-Afrika over te halen informatie te delen over de voortvluchtige drugscrimineel. Dat meldt De Telegraaf.De hogere beloning zou volgens de krant volgende week al kunnen ingaan. Het zou gaan om het hoogste tipgeld ooit in de Nederlandse misdaadgeschiedenis, schrijft De T

Martin St-Louis and the Canadiens' coaching staff had an important decision to make for tomorrow night's game in Dallas.
Should they start Jacob Fowler, who just recorded a shutout with 46 saves (and has won his last six starts)… or should they start Jakub Dobes, who's been struggling lately? 
We have the answer to that question.
It's simple: the Canadiens just announced that Dobes will get the start against the Stars.
Do you agree with this choice? Or… given Fowler's latest performance, ar

Vergezeld door twee vriendinnen loopt Odette uit Oisterwijk met dichtgeknepen neus door de Lange Hezelstraat in Nijmegen. Een stank die doet denken aan een mix van stront en braaksel vergalt voor menigeen het shopplezier op ’s lands oudste winkelpromenade. De oorzaak? Geen wildpoepers of overgevende cafégasten, maar een Japanse ’meisjesboom’ waarvan ooit de mannelijke variant werd besteld.

Un tentato assalto con il coltello a un agente di polizia davanti all’ambasciata di Israele, terminato con l’uccisione dell’assalitore. E’ accaduto poco dopo mezzanotte a Belgrado. “Un minore, la cui identità non è ancora stata accertata ma che si presume sia originario di Sabac (città della Serbia occidentale, ndr), ha aggredito un membro della gendarmeria usando due coltelli e gridando ‘Allah Akbar'”, ha dichiarato il ministro dell’Interno serbo, Ivica Dacic, parlando di “

A quattro anni dalla scadenza dell’Agenda 2030, non solo l’Italia è in netto ritardo rispetto agli Obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile (SDGs), ma nel 2025 sei dei 17 Obiettivi Onu peggiorano. E appare non raggiungibile il 58% dei target quantitativi fissati al 2030 (tra i 38 analizzati) per i vari goal. Un ritardo che si riflette sulla vita delle persone: oltre 5,4 milioni in povertà assoluta, il 94,5% dei Comuni a rischio idrogeologico e quasi un giovane su cinque con disagio psicologico. I
