Jack Hughes is sick of the shootout deciding games. Speaking with reporters at NHL All-Star media day on Thursday, Hughes, the Devils’ lone representative at All-Star weekend in Florida, was asked if he would prefer to keep the league’s current format of a five-minute overtime period followed by a shootout, or implement a 10-minute overtime to determine regular season games.

The Giants made a lot of progress last season — even with their long-struggling offensive line, as left tackle Andrew Thomas continued to develop into a dominant player. But the fact remains: Their pass protection, on a whole, was once again not good enough. And if general manager Joe Schoen doesn’t find a way to fix that, he’ll have a hard time achieving his stated goal of building around quarterback Daniel Jones and winning a Super Bowl with him.

But is someone really stupid enough to spend $99,000 (or more!) on a mason jar of sand supposedly taken “from the exact spot” on a Florida beach where six-time Super Bowl champion quarterback Tom Brady announced his retirement this week?. C’mon, really?. Call the person an “entrepreneur.”...

Wagner have been named semifinalists for the Naismith Trophy High School Player of the Year, awarded annually by the Atlanta Tipoff Club.

PHILADELPHIA — They’re the old guys now, each with at least 10 seasons in the uniform of the team that drafted them. Eagles veterans Brandon Graham, Fletcher Cox, Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson all know that they’re much closer to the end of their NFL journey than the beginning.

Joe Schoen talked about a couple obvious things in Mobile, Ala., this week. Yes, he is negotiating with running back Saquon Barkley’s agent, as Schoen tries to determine if Barkley will return to the Giants in 2023. And no, Schoen has not yet begun negotiations with quarterback Daniel Jones’ agent — which is less pressing, because Jones will be back for sure.

There is no denying the passion of Philadelphia Eagles fans. That passion flows from the city, across the Delaware River and into South Jersey. Sorry North Jersey Giants fans, half the state flies the Eagles flag proudly. And after kicking their New York nemesis back to the swamps of the...

The Giants made it clear at the Senior Bowl this week that their first order of business is figuring out the contract situations of Saquon Barkley and Daniel Jones. General manager Joe Schoen revealed that he has started discussions with his two-time Pro Bowl running back and the front office is trying to figure out a starting point for negotiations with Jones.

Jalen Hurts, the human and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, ran for 760 yards and 13 touchdowns in 15 games this season. There’s no evidence that Jalen Hurts, the horse, so much as jogged to the water trough this past fall. Turns out, the race horse named after Hurts nearly won...

Despite last suiting up in the NHL nearly 11 years ago, Petr Sykora has never left the hockey rink. After helping the Devils reach the 2012 Stanley Cup Final, his second stint with the team, he played one more professional season with Bern SC in the Swiss National League before retiring in 2014.

The Pro Bowl Games dodgeball match took place Thursday night, and Saquon Barkley was one of the last two standing. The New York Giants running back was the final person in for his team, but got hit by New Orleans Saints linebacker Demario Davis. However, the ball hit Barkley in the head.

Toronto Blue Jays starter Alek Manoah has taken to Twitter to share his issue with MLB Network’s Anthony Recker. Here’s what happened: Recker was asked on Wednesday’s “MLB Tonight” which starter under 30 he’d want to start a franchise with. He picked Cleveland Guardians right-hander Triston McKenzie, and then specifically explained why he did not pick Manoah. Per Yardbarker: “Alek Manoah, I love you, Alek. Just show me you’re willing to put a bit more time in the gym and that you’re going to be there consistently for a bit longer. I still love you.”

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. It came as no surprise earlier this week when the New York Yankees watched reliever Chad Green pack his bags. The right-hander landed a two-year, $8.5 million contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, and that’s good pay for someone who is rehabbing from Tommy John surgery.
