Every Stan Bowman Trade and Signing Graded: Edmonton Oilers GM Report Card
Twenty months. Dozens of roster decisions. How many actually made the Edmonton Oilers better? Nick Zararis goes through every major move Stan Bowman has made as Edmonton Oilers General Manager: free agent signings, trades, and contract extensions, grades each one, and explains what it means for the team's future with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl on the clock. What's covered: Free agency grades: Josh Samanski and David Tomasek (smart low-risk gambles), Andrew Mangiapane (a clean miss), John Klingberg (fine), Curtis Lazar (fine), Jack Roslovic (acceptable at the price) Extension grades: Leon Draisaitl at 8 years/$14M (had to be done), Trent Frederick at 8 years/$3.85M (inexcusable), Evan Bouchard at 4 years/$10.5M (fine), Jake Walman at 7 years/$7M (does not look good), Vasily Podkolzin at 3 years/$2.95M (lights out), Mattias Ekholm at 3 years/$4M (concerning for his age) Trade grades: The Tristan Jarry acquisition (catastrophic miss), the Jake Walman trade for a first-round pick (miss), the Vasily Podkolzin trade for a fourth-round pick (win), the Connor Ingram waiver claim (win), Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach for a first and Andrew Mangiapane (TBD but likely a miss) Why the NHL is changing: How the league is skewing younger, faster, and more skill-based, and why Bowman's approach of targeting proven veterans at depressed prices hasn't worked in Edmonton The excess value problem: Why the Oilers' best years came when they had players like Evan Bouchard, Dylan Holloway, and Philip Broberg on cheap deals and how they've lost that edge What $16 million in cap space actually buys: Why it sounds like a lot and isn't, once you factor in goaltending, top-six forwards, and Colton Dach's restricted free agency 06:47 Oil's pitch to veteran players 08:56 Critiquing Stan Bowman's decisions 14:06 Discussing player roles and signings 19:52 Debating Oilers' recent trades 23:24 Discussing GM and coach changes 24:14 Impending McDavid free agency concerns 28:39 Predicting a coaching change Every Stan Bowman Trade and Signing Graded: Edmonton Oilers GM Report Card Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Pac-12 Winning Pulse - Dutcher’s SDSU Rebuild Blueprint
Dutcher’s Rebuild Blueprint: SDSU Basketball After the Portal Bloodbath After losing 9 of their top 11 rotation players, can Brian Dutcher reload the right way? On this episode of Winning Pulse, we break down exactly how SDSU’s new roster fits into Coach Dutcher’s proven philosophy. We look at the massive holes left by Miles Byrd, BJ Davis, Magoon Gwath and others — then spotlight the young core that stayed: Elzie Harrington’s shooting, Tae Simmons’ rebounding, Latrell Davis’ skill, and Thokbor Majak’s rim protection. Next, we evaluate the new portal additions — Nick Anderson, Bear Cherry, David Torresani, Chance Gladden, Luka Skoric — and how well they match Dutcher’s defense-first culture, freedom-within-framework offense, and high-character approach. Good fits? Red flags? Growing pains ahead? This is the ultimate deep dive on whether the 2026-27 Aztecs are built for a bounce-back or another transition year.

The Cincinnati Reds Just Hit ROCK Bottom With Fundamental Errors and Slumping Offense
Cincinnati Reds’ bullpen disaster exposes roster flaws as another NL Central loss sparks panic. Can Andrew Abbott’s turnaround and surging bats like JJ Bleday and Nathaniel Lowe offset defensive blunders and glaring holes? Steven Offenbaker and Tim Daniel break down TJ Friedl’s costly outfield drop, Matt McLain and Ke'Bryan Hayes’ extended slumps, and a crushing walk-off after Emilio Pagán’s likely season-ending injury. The debate intensifies over the Reds’ reliance on hope over proven upgrades, the urgent need for bullpen reinforcements, and whether Nick Krall’s patience will sink Cincinnati’s playoff hopes. With fierce division rivals ahead, the spotlight is on the front office—will new arms or a finalized lineup rescue the Reds before the season slides further?
