Guys have certain routines that they like to do, they feel the best at, and that's kind of what we did. We had three games last year that we kind of went through that routine, another one this year, so we just get into a routine and do what gave us success in the past and got ready for Game 5.

also shared his thoughts on preparing for Game 6. He shared, "When we go back home, we'll do what we've done in two or the past three years. You have your thing. There's such a routine now. We've gone back home, we've had these two-day breaks and guys have found what works best for them and that's what we'll do. And that's the benefit of having the experience, you just fall into your routine, you're not really searching for something, you're not wondering what to do.
You've done it. Guys have done it, I don't know, 20-30 times over the past few seasons, so you go home, do your routine and get ready for Game 6."

His performance is turning heads, and fans are eager to know where he will play next. While some think they know the answer, a surprising update from an NHL insider has changed the story. What happens next could affect more than one team. Sam Bennett's future with the Florida Panthers has not yet decided, says Cam Robinson On Saturday, June 15, 2024, Cam Robinson from Elite Prospects posted on X (formerly Twitter) that Sam Bennett has not had contract talks with the Florida Panthers in recent weeks. This comes as a surprise, as many fans and experts believed Bennett would stay with the team. Robinson wrote, 'Lots of speculation that Sam Bennett re-signing in FLA is a foregone conclusion, but I'm told the two sides haven't talked extension in weeks. Teams continue to prepare sizeable offers should he make it to July 1st. Appears his preference is to stay in USA.' Bennett is finishing his four-year contract worth $17.7 million, signed with Florida in 2021. He will become a free agent on July 1, 2024, if he doesn't sign before then. The Toronto Maple Leafs were said to be interested in bringing the 28-year-old forward back to Canada.

What is the US Open playoff format and how is it used to decide the winner? all you need to know
The US Open has witnessed 33 playoffs in 124 versions of the national championship, but none in the last decade and a half. It was almost 17 years ago, in 2008, that golf fans saw the famous Monday playoff between Tiger Woods and Rocco Mediate. That playoff was not decided even after the 18-hole playoff. It was in the year 2018 when the U.S. Golf Association revamped its playoff format for the U.S. Open. However, the format remains untested. U.S. Open playoff format The U.S. Open playoff format is a two-hole aggregate playoff. It means that the players tied after 72 holes will play two holes, and the player with the best score thereafter will be declared the winner. In the two-hole aggregate playoff, they will play the short par-4 17th and par-4 18th holes, and the low score for the two holes will take home the victory. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like How much is your car worth? Take a look here Cars | Value Click Here Undo However, if Holes No. 17 and 18 are played and golfers remain tied, then the players will then resume in a sudden-death format. They would begin at the 15th hole, then 16, 17, and 18, respectively. This will continue until a winner is ultimately determined. When did the last US Open playoff at Oakmont take place? According to Golf Week, the last time the US Open playoff at Oakmont took place was in 1994, when Ernie Els required one to win his first of two U.S. Opens. Jack Nicklaus also secured the U.S. Open in a playoff in 1962. Tommy Armour did the same in 1927. 2025 marks the 10th U.S. Open at Oakmont. It is the most at any course. Live Events

While going through a tough time in his baseball career, Boston Red Sox player Alex Bregman paused to show love to someone very special. The message came during a personal and professional turning point. But it wasn't just about baseball. Something deeper was shared by the star on this special day. Alex Bregman shares emotional Father's Day post for dad Sam Bregman during recovery On Sunday, June 16, 2025, Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman posted a heartfelt message on Instagram for his father, Sam Bregman, on the occasion of Father's Day. In the post, Alex included old family pictures and wrote, 'Happy Father's Day to the best dad, grandfather, and role model. We love you so much and are so thankful for you.' This post came while Alex is recovering from a right quad strain suffered on May 23, 2025, which has kept him off the field. Even though he is doing long rehab sessions—up to 12 hours a day, according to team sources—he made time to express his love and appreciation for his dad. Sam Bregman has always been close to Alex. A former college baseball player himself, Sam passed down his passion for the sport to his son. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo He has said in interviews that he is proudest of 'the kind of man Alex is off the field.' The Bregman family's love for baseball goes back generations. Alex's grandfather once worked with legendary Red Sox hitter Ted Williams.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora had hinted in early June that Alex had 'a few family things coming up.' Alex Bregman pushes for quick comeback as Red Sox fight through season One important component in the Boston Red Sox lineup this year has been Alex Bregman. He had 51 games under his belt prior to his injury, hitting. 299 with 11 home runs and 35 RBIs. Without Bregman, the Red Sox were 34–36 as of mid-June and had just won four straight contests.
