NHL.com Projected USA Olympics Roster: Which Canadiens' Player Is Missing?
When the Ottawa Senators selected Shane Pinto 32nd overall in the 2019 NHL Draft, some Sens fans raised an eyebrow or two, wondering if Hamilton Bulldogs winger Arthur Kaliyev might have been the better choice. Kaliyev had just put up a 51-goal OHL season, and ended up being chosen by the LA Kings with the very next pick after Pinto.

Oilers playoff run gave Edmonton restaurants a boost: Moneris report
TORONTO — The Edmonton Oilers failed in their quest to bring the Stanley Cup home, but a new report says their playoff run gave a significant boost to spending at the city's restaurants. The report by payment processor Moneris says spending at restaurants near Rogers Place and across the city was up on game nights when the team was at home. Moneris says spending near the arena was up 58 per cent, while the rest of the city saw a six per cent increase, during the first game of the Stanley Cup final. Game 2, which was also played in Edmonton, saw spending near the rink rise 92 per cent and 10 per cent citywide. Spending for Game 5, which the Oilers lost at home, was up 79 per cent near the arena and up 18 per cent in the rest of Edmonton. The Oilers lost the best-of-seven series in Game 6 in Florida. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 7, 2025.

From hockey to rugby, it was a big weekend for N.L. athletes on big stages
Andy Knight of St. John's led a parade of outstanding performances by athletes from Newfoundland and Labrador on some big stages this weekend, as teams turned in some notable performances on the floor, the ice and the rugby pitch. Knight had three goals and two assists on Sunday to lead Team Canada to a gold medal at the 2025 men's under-20 world ball hockey championship in Poprad, Slovakia. Canada edged a stubborn Czechia team 8-7 in overtime, with Knight burying the golden goal seconds into extra time on a partial breakaway after accepting a pass from another Newfoundlander, defenceman Matteo Rotondi. Canada's lineup also included goaltender Scott Kirby of St. John's, assistant coach and Gander native Mike Dyke, and trainer Jeff Webber. Canada went undefeated through the five-team tournament, outscoring the opposition by a combined 20-6. Knight finished the tournament with four goals and four assists, Rotondi added a goal and four assists, while Kirby appeared between the pipes in two games, giving up just two goals. The Canadian women's team, meanwhile, featured a lineup filled with players from Newfoundland and Labrador, including Rachel Hardy, Molly Gill, Abigail Fleet, Brooklyn Kitchen, Hayley Ryan, Julia Butler and Cassie Drover. Mike Hipditch is a coach with the team. The Canadian women were the heavy favourites in the gold medal game against Czechia on Sunday, following a perfect 4-0 record through the group phase, and giving up just one goal along the way, while scoring 36 times. But Czechia cruised to a 5-1 victory to win the U20 division, forcing Canada to settle for silver. Canada blanked Czechia 2-0 in their first encounter on July 2. Kitchen was named a tournament all-star, while Gill was the leading Canadian point-getter with five goals and four assists through five games. Meanwhile, a team representing the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary skated to victory on Sunday in the Division 2 men's ice hockey competition at the 2025 World Police and Fire Games in Alabama. The RNC entry defeated a team from the Vancouver fire department in the final by a score of 6-2, with Andrew Paul and Stephen Gillard each scoring twice. Patrick O'Keefe and Matty Brett also scored, while Wes Welcher and Chris Mooney each had two assists. The RNC team was barely tested in their six round-robin and playoff games, scoring 42 goals and surrendering only three goals in the tournament behind the goaltending of Colby Landrigan. On the ruby pitch, the Newfoundland Rock team dropped a 31-19 result to the host Nova Scotia team in the final of the U19 men's Atlantic championship on Sunday. The Rock entered the final with a perfect 3-0 record through the round robin, including a 13-7 win over Nova Scotia, but fell short in the gold medal contest. The women's U19 team failed to register a victory. Download our free CBC News app to sign up for push alerts for CBC Newfoundland and Labrador. Sign up for our daily headlines newsletter here.

Andrew Cristall, one tooth short, could soon be filling a role for the Caps
Andrew Cristall showed up to Washington Capitals development camp with a missing front tooth. It was knocked out when he took a high stick to the face during a game last season. The forward has a removable denture he can wear to cover up the gap. That makes his parents happy, at least.
