It is different than Jack, because I am right here dealing with Jack every day, but I have so much respect for Auston, his game, and the person that he is. To see him have that moment and have that success... talk about leaders who find their way through. He was the captain of the team, and I thought he had a solid, tremendous tournament.

When Smith took over the Senators, the franchise was basically a construction site. There was no foundation, with just a pile of high‑end draft picks and a lot of hope they would grow into a Stanley Cup contender. However, during his tenure, Smith became known as the ultimate "player's coach." He could relate to stars like Brady Tkachuk and Tim Stützle, pushing them to play a heavy, hard-hitting brand of hockey while the roster was still maturing.

That's what good teams do. They don't complain. They just work.

There's no settling for average or ordinary this basketball season for Redondo Union coach Reggie Morris Jr. He has high expectations, and when several of his starters didn't come out performing on Tuesday, he quickly pulled them. "We try to develop good habits," Morris said. The Sea Hawks (4-0), ranked No. 3 in the Southland by The Times, responded with a blitz that indicated his players got the message.

It's safe to say that Craig Berube caught lightning in a bottle during the 2018-19 season. The Blues were a talented team that was underperforming and needed someone to come in and point them in the right direction. Having a future Hall of Fame defenceman in Alex Pietrangelo didn't hurt either. In fact, a comically deep blue line and team lousy with two-way talented top six forwards, along with emerging youthful talent like Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou, was a blessing. And that's before even discussing the unsustainably great rookie campaign from Jordan Binnington.

MIAMI GARDENS - The Miami Dolphins played their most complete game of the season in Sunday's 34-10 victory at Atlanta. The run defense finally lived up to expectations. The offense, playing without tight end Darren Waller (pectoral), put up a season-high in points and was aided by offensive coordinator Frank Smith being on the sideline instead of upstairs in the coaches box. Special teams had two field goals and a punt placed inside the 20-yard line.

Michelle Agyemang scored in the 96th minute against Italy to equalize, leading to extra time, and Chloe Kelly netted the rebound from her saved penalty to secure victory, showcasing their crucial roles in England's Euro 2025 semi-final comeback.

Calvin de Haan's frustration over his playing time underscores a broader issue within the Rangers, reflecting the challenges faced by players on a balanced roster.
