So the annual ''all-bore'' games in the NHL and the NFL have taken place for another year. I think the midseason all-star games have really lost their lustre over the years.

It was the toughest first half the Thunderwolves have had on the ice in the team's history. Riddled by injuries to key personnel, Lakehead struggled in the first part of the OUA season with a below .

The Canadian sports world is saying goodbye to one of it's all-time stars. Hockey Hall of Famer Jean Beliveau passed away at the age of 83.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has said there are no talks of more expansion teams. The topic has come up a number of times concerning cities such as Seattle, Kansas City, Quebec as well as a second team in the Toronto area.

The pressure is increasing on the ownership of Washington’s NFL team to back down and change its name. The franchise, originally based in Boston, adopted the Redskins name in the early 30s.

There is no doubt that Danny Benedetti has his work cut out after being hired as the Border Cats new manager. He takes over a team that struggled to a 23 and 49 record, which came on the heels of another tough season.

It's been another tough season for the Border Cats. They play out the remainder of the second half of the Northwoods League schedule, well back of the lead in the North Division.

It's a few months until the new Lakehead University Thunderwolves season, but the schedule is going to feature several teams playing at the Fort William Gardens that have never been here before.

It's down to two teams to decide the Stanley Cup. A battle between two teams that have never met before in the final, the Los Angeles Kings and the New York Rangers.
