In explaining why Leafs held only an optional skate, Craig Berube says there's guys banged up who had to stay off the ice anyway so it wouldn't have been a full practice Notes there's games Friday & Saturday with an early start Saturday Felt they would get more from a meeting Craig Berube says he thinks Scott Laughton will be on the ice tomorrow (individually) After seeing how he does there. "hopefully he's back on the ice with us shortly." @BodogCA

As I said, we have to take care of him. We're not convinced he's 100% fit to play these games; they're always very tough, and looking at the games against Sevilla and others, it's not the best time for him to play again. We'll find games for him to come back, and he also has to improve in training. He's not at his best for the big games, so we have to help him improve.

Barcelona forward Raphinha is still not training with the group, raising doubts over his availability for the upcoming matches against Girona and Olympiakos, according to Adria Albets. While the winger is expected to recover in time for El Clasico, he remains focused on individual work in the gym and has not yet joined his teammates on the training pitch. With just four days to go before the clash with Girona, Raphinha continues to work alone, even refraining from exercising on the sidelines.

"It's been bothering him the last three years," Anthopoulos said. "He said he would just grind through it and play through it and it would come and go. But in talking to Dr. Burke today, he was stunned he'd been playing the last three years with a significant tear."... "He'd been getting some treatment on his hip, swore to us he was fine," Anthopoulos said.

Liverpool's landmark signing of Alexander Isak, sealed on deadline day in a British-record move worth 125 million (rising to nearly 130 million including bonuses), was far from straightforward. Behind the scenes, the club's sports science department played a crucial role in overcoming serious fitness concerns about the Swedish striker, according to Express. Isak's injury record raised inevitable alarm bells in Merseyside.

"He [Saka] does not need surgery," Arteta said. "It's not as bad as the previous one. He felt something, so he will be out for a couple of weeks."

Colson Montgomery wasn't sure if his deep fly had enough to get out of the park Tuesday night against the Royals. He bounced out of the batter's box after arriving late on a fastball, willing the ball to stay fair as it sailed toward the left-field corner - and he watched it bank off the foul pole like dice off the back wall of a craps table.

"I'm doing fine. The coaches and the training staff have this process they want me to do to be that has me being healthy when we're ready to play."

The White Sox made a late lineup change ahead of Sunday's Crosstown Series finale, replacing Austin Slater with Luis Robert Jr. as designated hitter due to adductor soreness.

Lotte Kopecky expressed frustration with her performance at the Tour de France Femmes, feeling a lack of enjoyment and struggling against her ambitions due to previous injuries.

Matthew Stafford will be limited to start training camp due to back soreness, but is absolutely expected to be ready for the start of the season, according to Coach Sean McVay.

Of course we want to win a Super Bowl. That's why we're playing the game. That's for sure.

Ollie Pope stated that his role as vice-captain involves ensuring Ben Stokes doesn't overextend himself, particularly as Stokes deals with a groin injury during the Test against India.

"I got 28 or 29 shots in my hand throughout the playoffs, and I was like 'that can't be for nothing, we have to win.' So that was my mentality."

In the early miles, I felt an injury flare up that made it difficult to fully enjoy the breathtaking views, yet I pushed forward for a strong finish.

A quarter into the campaign, each team in the WNBA now has at least one loss, highlighting the variance of the sport and the depth of talent.

It's a new day so it must be a new lineup for that Atlanta Braves. After news came out Monday that Marcell Ozuna has a tear in his hip, GM Alex Anthopoulos confirmed Ozuna could still play, but would just have to manage the pain until the off-season.

The pain is from the crash during stage 9 to Siena. I had three stitches, but the problem is that during the time trial, the stitches opened.

Emma Raducanu's injury scare during the Strasbourg Open prompts concerns ahead of the French Open, but her competitive spirit raises hopes for recovery.

Jamal Musiala will not play in the Nations League Final Four as he focuses on recovering for the FIFA Club World Cup, ensuring his fitness.

Abbott's signing shows Texas's strategy of acquiring experienced arms, especially with injuries plaguing their rotation. All new additions will bolster Triple-A, ready for MLB call-ups.

It's a problem I've been carrying with me this season. I always do my best to get to the game and play, to see if I can hold on.

Miedema stated, "To the people in charge of the football calendar, it is time to realise the current schedule will need to change for players' physical and mental safety."

Players like [Diogo] Dalot, they are always ready but today he was really tired. The guys that are at risk to have an injury, we will try to save them.
