THE WORLD HOCKEY JUNIORS ARE BEING HELD CURRENTLY. IT’S A MAKE UP FROM A TOURNAMENT THAT WAS CANCELLED LAST MINUTE AFTER A COVID BREAKOUT CAUSED A NUMBER OF POSTPONEMENTS.
THE UNDER-17 FIVE NATIONS HOCKEY TOURNAMENT IS UNDER WAY IN COLORADO SPRINGS, WITH WARROAD’S CARSON PILGRIM PARTICIPATING ON TEAM USA. THE TEAM IS 2-0 SO FAR, WITH WINS OVER GERMANY AND SWITZERLAND.
THE HOCKEY WORLD IS MOURNING THE DEATH OF BEN STELTER, THE YOUNG EDMONTON OILERS FAN WHO WAS FIGHTING BRAIN CANCER. HIS STORY MADE HEADLINES DURING THE OILERS POSTSEASON RUN, RESONATING WITH PLAYERS AND FAN BASES ACROSS THE LEAGUE.
THE DOGERS RALLIED WITH 6 RUNS IN THE 5TH, 6TH, AND 7TH INNINGS TO BEAT THE MINNESOTA TWINS 8-5. THE DAGGER WAS A JOEY GALLO THREE RUN HOME RUN.
CLEVELAND HAS TAKEN OVER FIRST PLACE AFTER THEY BEAT DETROIT 3-2.
CHICAGO MISSED A CHANCE TO DRAW EVEN CLOSER, FALLING 8-3 IN KANSAS CITY.
