A long time has passed, 16 years to be exact, since a Bruins forward by the name of Marco Sturm tapped home Patrice Bergeron’s pass into the back of the Philadelphia Flyers’ net to lift the B’s to victory in the first Fenway Park Winter Classic. As was often the case when he scored a goal, a child-like joy opened up all over Sturm’s beaming face. Sturm is now the Bruins’ coach and, while he can still appreciates outdoor games like the one the B’s will be playing in at Raymond James Stadium against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday,…

No Celtics player has appeared in more trade rumors this season than Anfernee Simons. Immediately after Boston acquired Simons in the July trade that sent Jrue Holiday to Portland, there was speculation that it could look to flip him and his $27.7 million expiring contract in a subsequent deal. For six months, those murmurs have persisted, with Simons often mentioned as a player the Celtics could move to acquire frontcourt help, lower their luxury tax bill or both. On Thursday — one week out from the NBA’s Feb. 5 trade deadline — NBA on Prime insider Chris Haynes reported the…

Rob Gronkowski was the latest cornerpiece of Bill Belichick’s New England Patriots dynasty to lament his former head coach’s Hall of Fame snub. Belichick reportedly won’t make the Hall of Fame in his first year on the ballot, a jarring outcome for a coach with eight Super Bowl wins (six as a head coach) and the most playoff victories in NFL history. Tom Brady was among the ex-Patriots stars to chastise the “ridiculous” outcome, and Gronkowski later joined a crowded line of critics. Gronkowski reacted to Belichick’s Hall of Fame denial during Thursday’s appearance on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring…

FOXBORO — Drake Maye sat in the front row as Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel addressed the team during their first full squad meeting of the week. It was a Wednesday-like Thursday for Maye and company, three days before they depart for Santa Clara and 10 days before they face the Seahawks in Super Bowl 60. Vrabel reminded players about the “hopes” they shared some six months ago in a well-documented meeting during training camp. At the time, Vrabel asked players to share their 4 H’s — History, Heroes, Heartbreak and Hope. “Our hopes were to win the big game,…

The Boston Red Sox have an unusual roster as they prepare for the 2026 season. They’re deep in the outfield and starting rotation but light on infielders and relievers. Barring some last-minute trades or signings, the Red Sox will need to get creative with their lineup this year. They have four outfielders for three spots and still have holes to fill at third base and second base. Many have wondered whether Boston would consider moving one of its outfielders to the infield to help solve both issues, especially after asking Rafael Devers to play multiple new positions last year. Ceddanne…
