Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin recently requested a trade.
Larkin, his agent Pat Brisson, and Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman wouldn't comment on the matter to Friedman.
A Michigan native, Larkin has spent his entire 11-year career in Detroit but hasn't reached the playoffs since his 2015-16 rookie campaign. The Red Wings' 10-year postseason drought is the longest active skid in the league.
The Green Bay Packers agreed to terms on a four-year, $110.5 million contract extension with wide receiver Christian Watson.
Watson's new deal includes a $31 million signing bonus as well.
The 27 year old is coming off a productive 2025 campaign. He posted 35 catches for 611 yards and six touchdowns in 10 games after recovering from an ACL injury that ended his 2024 season.
Shohei Ohtani threw six scoreless innings, Kyle Tucker hit a two-run homer into the Chase Field pool and the Los Angeles Dodgers routed the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-0 on Wednesday night.
Ohtani allowed two hits and struck out six while lowering his major league-best ERA to 0.74. He's allowed one earned run in 24 innings during a four-game winning streak.
Sánchez became just the fifth pitcher since 1893 - when the mound was moved to its current distance - to record a 50-plus inning shutout streak when he started Wednesday's game with six scoreless frames against the San Diego Padres.
His run finally came to an end during the top of the seventh when Jackson Merrill ripped an RBI single to tie the game 1-1. Although Sánchez got two outs to start the seventh, his streak officially goes into the books as 50 2/3 innings - the fifth-longest since 1893 and a new record for left-handed pitchers.
The New York Knicks’ winning streak lives on, and they struck first in the NBA Finals.
Jalen Brunson scored 30 points, Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 18 points and 12 rebounds, and the Knicks erased a 14-point second-half deficit to beat the San Antonio Spurs 105-95 in Game 1 of the finals on Wednesday night.
Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs was one of the hottest tickets in sports, and one enthusiastic fan in particular really wanted to document that he scored seats to the contest.
During a heated second half, a fan interrupted the action to snap a selfie with Spurs star Victor Wembanyama.
Wembanyama seemed unfazed by the incident, even offering a small smile as the fan attempted to capture the moment before security rushed him off.
Wilson finalized a deal this week to become a CBS Sports analyst for the upcoming season, but it was unclear if he'd step away from football for good. He played 14 years in the NFL between the Seattle Seahawks, Denver Broncos, Pittsburgh Steelers, and New York Giants.
The Wisconsin product was drafted by the Seahawks in the third round in 2012. Despite being a rookie, Wilson was named the Week 1 starter ahead of Matt Flynn, who Seattle just signed to a three-year, $20.5-million contract in free agency just months before the season.
The New York Islanders and captain Anders Lee could be headed for a split.
Lee's agent and Islanders general manager Mathieu Darche met Wednesday to discuss a new contract, but the two sides are far apart in negotiations. As a result, Lee is reportedly prepared to test the open market July 1.
Lee just played out the final season of a seven-year, $49-million contract. He'll be an unrestricted free agent July 1.
Tampa Bay Lightning bench boss Jon Cooper won the 2026 Jack Adams Award as the NHL's coach of the year, the league announced Wednesday.
Buffalo Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff and Pittsburgh Penguins' Dan Muse were the other two finalists.
It's Cooper's first time winning the award despite being considered one of the league's top coaches for over a decade. He was previously a finalist in 2014 and 2019.
New York Knicks Mitchell Robinson was listed as questionable for the series opener against the San Antonio Spurs with a fractured fifth metacarpal on his right hand. He reportedly underwent surgery after the Eastern Conference finals for a broken pinkie finger. However, he fully participated in practice Tuesday and is ready for Game 1.
The Knicks declined to divulge how Robinson sustained the fracture but said that it didn't occur during a game or practice. The center reportedly plans to wear a brace if he plays in Game 1.
