WINTHROP – In a matchup between two of the top Division 4 boys hockey programs, Winthrop was able to ride strong defense and timely scoring to secure a 2-1 victory over Dover-Sherborn/Weston. The matchup featured the two most recent state champions, as Winthrop won the title last year while Dover-Sherborn/Weston won in 2024. It was also the first matchup between the programs since the 2024 postseason, where the Raiders defeated the Vikings 2-1 in a shootout to advance to the championship. “We lost to these guys two years ago to go to the Garden,” Vikings head coach Dale Dunbar said.…

FOXBORO — They call him “Dr. Gibby.” Patriots linebacker Jack Gibbens earned the nickname when he was a rookie with the Tennessee Titans in 2022, when he already knew all of the answers to then-head coach Mike Vrabel’s pop quizzes. Vrabel liked working with Gibbens so much that when he got hired as head coach of the Patriots this offseason, he signed the veteran linebacker as a free agent. Gibbens began the season in a backup role but has ended up starting five games already this season, and he’s likely to start another one this week with starter Robert Spillane…
The Boston Bruins will be making some lineup changes on Saturday. Boston is set to host the Vancouver Canucks at 7 p.m. ET, and Alex Steeves will be a scratch, while Jeffrey Viel will return to the lineup. Following morning skate on Saturday, Bruins head coach Marco Sturm explained the decision to change the forward lines, which included Marat Khusnutdinov being on the top line. “Obviously, Steeves is out of the lineup, so we had to make a little bit of an adjustment,” Sturm said on Saturday. “We just went back with Kuzy on the first line just to give…
Are we having fun living and dying by lightly-sourced rumors about the Alex Bregman negotiations? No? Well, too bad, that’s all we got. What else are you going to do, watch football? Ugh, how awful. According to the latest reports, Bregman’s market is now more robust than it was last year and he is seeking a six-year deal. I will eat my son’s now-useless Rafael Devers shirsey if this Red Sox front office gives a 31-year-old a six-year deal. (Jen McCaffrey, The Athletic)And if you think the talk about a six-year contract for Bregman is mostly bluster, well, it probably…
With how they are currently constructed, the Bruins need good special teams if they hope to have any success. But while their power play remains a weapon (fourth in the NHL with a 25.7%), the penalty kill has suddenly hit the skids. The B’s have allowed at least one power-play goal against in their last five games, six PP goals in all. The slump has dropped them all the way down to 18th in the league going into Saturday’s game against the Vancouver Canucks. After two losses in three games going into Saturday had the B’s on the outside looking…

Six weeks ago, the Pats stood, well, pat. The NFL trade deadline passed without even a rumbling of a pick-swap deal in New England, where Mike Vrabel, Drake Maye and Co. had begun to announce themselves as contenders with a six-game winning streak. Instead of fortifying their position, the Pats watched while a few competitors stocked up around them. Despite that inactivity, their recent loss to Buffalo and several key injuries, the Patriots remain firmly in the title race. Their Super Bowl odds range from 6-8%, according to most sportsbooks, where they are listed as the seventh or eighth-biggest favorite…
