“I think we’re taking the game to new heights right now,” Nurse said. “We’re playing a style of hockey that’s never been seen in our tournament before. And so, in 5-10 years, other countries are going to be playing our style of play, and we’re going to keep pushing the envelope and keep making our sport better.”
I see you’ve been taking in the ice dancing. The discipline is rife with pairs where at least one half has tenuous, if any, ties to the country for which they compete (though none of the medalist pairs this year had naturalized members). Ice dancing has historically been dominated by a handful of countries — namely Russia (or its historical antecedents), with strong showings by Canada, France, the U.S. and Great Britain. That means if you want to make it to the premier rink, it might behoove you to acquire a new nationality.
The person who was hit was able to walk away from the scene and received assistance from firefighters, though his or her exact condition was not immediately known, Metra spokeswoman Meg Reile said. It wasn’t clear whether the person had been standing on the platform or if they had been standing directly on the tracks; their injuries suggest they may have been clipped by a passing train but that could not be confirmed early Tuesday.
An Ontario, Canada, native, Shaw, 30, was with the Blackhawks from 2011 until 2015 and again from 2019 until retiring in April after team doctors advised him to quit playing due to suffering multiple concussions. He helped the team win Stanley Cup championships in 2013 and 2015.

“Richard Irvin is the best person to lead our state in this election cycle,” Griffin said. “This is not just about beating J.B. This is about having a person in office who is going to put the people of our state first, who is going to be willing to make the tough calls that need to be made to end the senseless violence that’s been gripping our state, that we put our state on a path of fiscal sustainability, and that we make Illinois a place that firms like Citadel can proudly recruit talent to and build businesses within.”
Adrian presided over a three-day bench trial in which Clinton was accused of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl at a graduation party in Quincy in May. After originally finding Clinton guilty on one count of criminal sexual assault in October, Adrian threw out the conviction last month when Clinton appeared for sentencing, saying there had been “plenty of punishment” and that he wouldn’t impose the mandatory minimum sentence of four years in prison.
About 40 minutes before kickoff, the Rams and Bengals lined the end zones and looked up at the big screen while outside, next to SoFi Stadium’s lake, gospel duo Mary Mary and the LA Phil’s Youth Orchestra Los Angeles performed “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” a song that’s known as the unofficial Black national anthem.
That’s a great question. The group of wide receivers coming out of contract isn’t super deep. Davante Adams is the best by far, but the Green Bay Packers can secure him with the franchise tag. After that you’re looking at Allen Robinson, Chris Godwin (who suffered a torn ACL and MCL in December), Mike Williams, Will Fuller, Jamison Crowder, JuJu Smith-Schuster, T.Y. Hilton and Christian Kirk. Williams is interesting to me. He has good size at 6-foot-4, 218 pounds and is coming off a season in which he caught 76 passes for 1,146 yards with nine touchdowns. He figures to be one of the hottest targets in free agency and has indicated he’d like to stay with the Los Angeles Chargers.
