The NFL should award 'assists' to players who successfully lateral a ball that results in a touchdown

The NFL should award assist for anyone who successfully laterals a ball That and that the play end than a touchdown. This would promote more laterals and specialists with those skills that become valuable throughout the league. [PFT]: I like that. It's a good idea.

The Toronto Maple Leafs were the second-best team in the NHL this year because they were the only ones to take the Panthers to seven games

I mean, if you had to pick a second best team, PFT, it's probably the Toronto Maple Leafs. 'cause they took 'em to seven. [PFT]: I was about to start the show by congratulating the Toronto Maple Leafs on being better than the Edmonton Oilers.

Opinion Hockey HotSarcastic

The Oilers made the finals, while the Leafs were eliminated earlier; series length against a common opponent is a humorous but logically flawed metric for 'second best.'

Connor McDavid is currently incapable of winning the big one

I feel bad for [Connor McDavid]. He's an incredible player, but as of right now, I'm just going on the facts that I see — has not won the big one. And we're being a little tongue in cheek, but obviously this will be the, the, the prevailing story of can he win the big one.

Hot Take Hockey Hot Subjective

Subjective 'legacy' talk. While McDavid hasn't won a Cup in this timeline, 'incapable' is an extreme framing for the best player in the world.

The Indiana Fever need to hire a Charles Oakley-style enforcer to protect Caitlin Clark

This is actually a great opportunity for somebody that's like into the bench player on the Fever, become the Caitlin Clark defender. Just start learning boxing, jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, whatever. And then just be an enforcer. Be the Charles Oakley... that just goes out there and beats the shit out of girls that try to go out at Caitlin.

The Fever have not officially designated a specific 'enforcer' for this role, though teammates do defend her.
