The Way Too Early Penguins, Metro Division Predictions

The NHL has never been as competitive, and games in October have never been so important. Fewer top teams can ease into the season, and a bad start can lead to a coaching change.

Why Pirates' upcoming series against Cardinals is so crucial to 2024 season
After coming off a big series victory against the Phillies, the Pirates will finish their homestand with a three-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals.

The signing of Cordarrelle Patterson puts a damper on the fringe players hopes of making the roster as the third-string running back but the Steelers may decide to roster three true running backs and Patterson. If that is the...
