It’s been about 24 hours now since the Vancouver Canucks traded Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for a package that includes Zeev Buium, Marco Rossi, Liam Ohgren, and Minnesota’s 2026 first-round pick. After having some time to think about it, and with more information coming out, it has become clear to me the Canucks had to do this. Elliotte Friedman mentioned on Hockey Night in Canada that Hughes told the team about a month ago that he wasn’t planning on signi
Joe Burrow made some news this past week after speaking at a press conference that happened to fall on his 29th birthday. He was noticeably reflective, talking about his career, what he’s been through, and what the future might hold. The tone of it all was pretty cryptic. Burrow essentially said that if he’s going to continue playing football, it needs to be fun for him going forward. His body has been through a lot, as we all know, including this season, where a toe injury k
I just got back from the Vancouver Canucks–Buffalo Sabres game, where the Sabres came into Vancouver and beat the Canucks 3–2. It really felt like a low point. The first jerseys of the year were thrown onto the ice as the Canucks sit dead last in the NHL. Another home loss. More fan frustration. And right now, it feels like nothing but rumours about veterans on the trade block, rumours about the direction of the team, and most importantly, rumours about the future of team cap
The Silcoff Selections are here for Week 15 of the 2025 NFL Season! Below are my records for my straight up and against the spread picks for the season thus far. Records Last Week: Straight Up: 7-7 Against The Spread: 7-7 Season Records: Straight Up: 129-77-1 Against The Spread: 97-107-4 Thursday Night Football: Atlanta Falcons (4-9) @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-6) I Line: Buccaneers -4.5 I like the Bucs big time in this game. Yes, they’re coming off a pretty embarrassing loss t
The New Orleans Pelicans are in a disastrous position, and it’s not just about the standings. They suck, as harsh as that sounds, they sit last in the Western Conference with a 3-22 record, and to make matters worse, they don’t even control their own first-round pick this year. That pick is now in the hands of the Atlanta Hawks thanks to last year’s deal at the draft that helped New Orleans trade up to draft Derrick Queen, who quietly has become one of the most underrated pla
Throughout the NFL season, critics told A.J. Brown to “be quiet,” insisting he had no reason to speak out because the Philadelphia Eagles were winning games and loaded with talent. But as the year has unfolded, it’s becoming clear that Brown was sounding the alarm before anyone else. The Philadelphia Eagles are, quite frankly, a mess right now. Their latest loss came against the Los Angeles Chargers, a good football team, but one ravaged by injuries. The Chargers entered the
As the 2025 NFL season enters the stretch run, it has felt like a true changing of the guard. Perennial playoff staples suddenly look vulnerable, and quarterbacks we’ve grown accustomed to seeing in January might soon be on the outside looking in. That has raised a question to me... Which quarterbacks around the league would you want to build a franchise around for the next five years? Below is a quick breakdown, complete with reasoning, concerns, and long-term projections, o
These are tough times in Vancouver. The Canucks currently sit in the basement of the NHL standings, and all signs point to an all-out collapse as their season seemingly slips away by the game, which has led to their captain appearing to be leaving sooner rather than later. Even though many fans find it hard to accept, the franchise seems prepared to turn its attention to the future and making this team younger. As the trade market starts to heat up and Vancouver willing to mo
As the 2025 NFL regular season inches toward its conclusion, the playoff picture seems to shift every single week. That’s the beauty of December football, new scenarios open up and fanbases everywhere start calculating the most exciting matchups possible. With the first weekend of December upon us, here are the NFL playoff games I would love to see unfold which even includes my dream Super Bowl, these are the games football fans deserve. Buffalo Bills @ Baltimore Ravens One o
