A 2028 WORLD CUP OF HOCKEY WILL USE CALGARY AND EDMONTON AS NORTH AMERICAN SITES AND PRAGUE AS THE EUROPEAN SITE. NHL PLAYERS WILL BE PART OF THAT COMPETITION. JUST LIKE THE OLYMPICS HOWEVER, COMMISSIONER GARY BETTMAN SAID TIME WILL TELL IF RUSSIA IS PART OF THAT.
NBA:
PHOENIX AT MINNESOTA
UTAH IS IN MINNESOTA TOMORROW
A FIRST VOTE COULD BE COMING ON LEAGUE EXPANSION. SEATTLE AND VEGAS WOULD BE THE EXPECTED CITIES IF IT WERE TO HAPPEN.

THE TWINS WON IN EXHIBITION BALL, 5-1 OVER PITTSBURGH. JOE RYAN HAS HAD A REALLY NICE SPRING. HE THREW FOUR INNINGS, GAVE UP ONE RUN, AND STRUCK OUT SIX. LUKE KEASHALL, WHOS BATTING .400 THIS SPRING, HOMERED AND DROVE IN THREE.
WNBA:
THE PLAYERS AND THE LEAGUE ARE FEVERISHLY TRYING TO WORK OUT A NEW LABOR DEAL, HAVING EXHCNAGED PROPOSALS MORE THAN 15 TIMES IN THE PAST WEEK. THEY WERE HOPEFUL YESTERDAY COULD HAVE BEEN THE DAY THAT A DEAL WAS STRUCK, BUT TO THIS POINT, THAT HASN’T HAPPENED. TRANING CAMPS ARE SUPPOSED TO START APRIL 19 AND THE REGULAR SEASON MAY 8TH. IT’S UNCLEAR EVEN IF A DEAL WERE STRUCK NOW, IF THOSE DATES WOULD BE ABLE TO HOLD TRUE.
