'The world's our oyster in Champions League'
Hibernian midfielder Kirsten Reilly sees no reason why Hibernian can't cause a shock in the Champions League, just like they did in the SWPL this season. The capital club surprised everyone by winning their first league title in 18 years - pipping Rangers and Glasgow City at the post. Advertisement Their prize for finishing top is a second round of Champions League qualifying tie against Danish title winners Fortuna Hjorring, in the champions path. Should they win that, they will face the winners of the match between Cypriot champions Apollon Ladies and Swiss title holders Young Boys. Reilly knows it's "a big challenge" but insists everyone at the club is excited by it and keen to surprise folks again. "Obviously, it's going to be tough opposition no matter who we got," the 29-year-old said. £They're a very strong team in their own league, but we're really looking forward to it and excited for the challenge. Advertisement "I mean, we've already surprised people by winning the league, so why not do it again? "We are confident in our own ability, so we just need to take the same game we played last season into the Champions League and hopefully it'll work there as well. "The teams we have been drawn against are all great teams. They've won many leagues domestically as well, but I think the world's our oyster in this tournament. "We can win this little group that we're in and hopefully we can progress to the next stages."

Arctic Blue Beverages to set up venture with US consortium
Finland's Arctic Blue Beverages has signed a letter of intent to form a joint venture with a group of US investors led by former NHL star Teemu Selänne. The venture is planning to launch Arctic Blue Beverages' ready-to-drink Arctic Blue Long Drink brand and portfolio in the US, starting with California. The agreement will see the venture 'jointly owned and governed' by the investor group and Arctic Blue Beverages. The investors will put in between $2-2.5m to support the brand's entry to market, plus its 'initial growth phase'. The 'definitive agreements' governing the venture are expected to be completed by the end of August. The partners anticipate commercial operations will start between the fourth quarter this year and the opening three months of 2026, a statement from Arctic Blue Beverages read. 'This is a significant milestone in our international expansion strategy. Teemu Selänne is not only a legendary athlete but also a highly respected name in lifestyle and business, especially in California. We're proud to partner with him and his investor group to introduce Arctic Blue Long Drink to the US market," Arctic Blue Beverages executive chairman Antti Villanen said. The company launched its Long Drinks line last year in its home market where the group said the range 'has demonstrated strong product-market fit and brand traction'. The Long Drinks range is made using the company's Arctic Blue gin, and comes in four varieties. "I have been following Arctic Blue Beverages for some time and truly believe in what the company stands for,' Selänne said. 'The Finnish purity shines through in every sip of their Long Drink, which combines authentic taste with a premium design that stands out in the market. I'm excited to bring this unique experience to consumers in the U.S.' Arctic Blue Beverage's full portfolio includes the liquorice liqueur Arctic Blue Laku, Arctic Blue gin and Arti Blue Oat, which the group claims is 'the world's first dairy-free gin-based oat liqueur'. As well as its domestic market, the group sells in markets including Sweden, Japan and Australia.

Bruins Rumors: Boston Linked To Former Draft Pick
The Boston Bruins are expected to try to improve their defensive group this off-season. It is understandable, as they are coming off a bad season and undoubtedly need more stability on their backend. It appears that they are eyeing a player who they are already quite familiar with, as The Fourth Period reported that the Bruins are among the teams linked to pending unrestricted free agent (UFA) defenseman Ryan Lindgren. Advertisement Lindgren, 27, was selected by the Bruins with the 49th overall pick of the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. However, the left-shot defenseman never ended up playing in a game for the Bruins, as he was traded to the New York Rangers at the 2018 NHL trade deadline in the move that brought Rick Nash to Boston. This is a move that did not age well for the Bruins. Hearing that the Bruins are reportedly interested in reuniting with Lindgren is understandable. The Minnesota native is a solid top-four defensive defenseman when playing at his best. In addition, he works well on the penalty kill, which adds to his appeal. Lindgren appeared in 72 games this season split between the New York Rangers and Avalanche, where he recorded four goals, 18 assists, 22 points, 80 hits, and 128 blocks. Overall, with the Bruins' blueline needing help, Lindgren could make sense for the Bruins to sign to an affordable short-term deal. However, with the Bruins already having three left-shot defensemen in Nikita Zadorov, Hampus Lindholm, and Mason Lohrei signed, Lindgren or another one of them would need to move to the right side if the Bruins successfully signed their former draft pick. Bruins Sign Big Defenseman To Contract Extension Bruins Sign Big Defenseman To Contract Extension The Advertisement Boston Bruins have made a notable move, as the Original Six club has signed defenseman Mason Lohrei to a two-year, $6.4 million contract extension. Starting next season, the 6-foot-5 defenseman will carry a $3.2 million cap hit. Photo Credit: © Danny Wild-Imagn Images
