Hidden Game: Canadiens extend winning streak to seven against Rangers

 "We're still hungry," said Cole Caufield, who scored two goals. "We want to keep this going."










It was 54 years ago, on April 2, 1972, that Vic Hadfield became the first New York Rangers player to score 50 goals in a season. He scored twice in a 6-5 loss to the Canadiens at Madison Square Garden.

                             

Thursday night, again at MSG, the Rangers and Canadiens — two Original Six teams — met. And we nearly saw Cole Caufield score his 50th goal this season.

                               

Caufield scored twice, including the winner with slightly more than five minutes remaining in regulation time, as the Canadiens edged the Rangers 3-2. The game shouldn’t have been that close but, 100 years from now, nobody will remember.

How Vinicius Jr became Real Madrid’s man for the Champions League knockout rounds

“He is the most decisive player in the world.” That was Carlo Ancelotti’s verdict on Vinicius Junior in February 2023 after he dismantled Liverpool at Anfield in the Champions League round of 16. With Real Madrid 2-0 down inside 14 minutes, Vinicius Jr curled home from the left side of the box before unwittingly deflecting a poor Alisson clearance into the net to claw them level by half-time. The Brazil international added an assist midway through the second half, measuring his run before setting up Karim Benzema on the break to give Madrid a 5-2 win. A player who has faced adversity throughout his career, it is no surprise that Vinicius Jr has often thrived under the bright European midweek lights in the second half of the season.

Instant Takeaways From Nuggets' Brutal OT Loss to Lakers

 Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic hit a game-winner to sink the Denver Nuggets in overtime. Mar 14, 2026; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (77) controls the ball while under pressure from Denver Nuggets guard Christian Braun (0) during the first half at Crypto.com Arena. William Liang-Imagn Images Another crushing loss for the Denver Nuggets. After the Los Angeles Lakers took as much as a 17-point lead, the Nuggets stormed back to force overtime. However, after an ugly overtime period with plenty of missed shots, Lakers superstar Luka Doncic took matters into his own hands. In a tie game, Doncic knocked down the game-winning mid-range shot with just 0.5 seconds remaining. It was malpractice to leave Spencer Jones on an island with Doncic with the game on the line, as the six-time All-Star will win that battle nine times out of ten. Here are a few instant takeaways from Denver's crushing loss on Saturday night:         ...

Bam Adebayo 83 Points — Fans Call NBA a Joke; Could Wizards Face Investigation for Tanking?

Miami Heat centre Bam Adebayo scored 83 points, the second‑highest total in NBA history, in a 150‑129 win over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night, igniting intense discussion about the nature of the performance and the Wizards' defensive approach. Adebayo's 83‑point effort overtook Kobe Bryant's 81‑point game from 2006, trailing only Wilt Chamberlain's 100‑point masterpiece in 1962. His stat line included 20 of 43 from the field, 7 of 22 from three‑point range and an astounding 36 of 43 at the free‑throw line, breaking single‑game NBA records for both free throws made and attempted. The performance marked a career‑night for Adebayo, who entered Tuesday averaging under five free throw attempts per game before erupting for a historic scoring output.                                                          ...
