Dallas Stars coach Pete DeBoer addresses the slash by #Oilers D Darnell Nurse that injured #Stars F Roope Hintz.

Nurse got a 2 minute minor penalty instead of a 5 minute major.

“Does anyone in this room think if Connor McDavid gets carried off the ice like that, that it’s not a five minute major?“

At the NBA Combine, expected #1 pick Cooper Flagg was asked how he would fit in the Dallas Mavericks lineup 🏀

“I haven’t thought about it a ton yet. Just trying to take this one day at a time. Wherever I end up... I’m just going to try to be me... Play really hard on every single possession."

Stars coach Pete DeBoer told me yesterday that Miro Heiskanen's time on ice will be monitored upon his return:

"We're not going to put him out on the ice for 30 minutes in his first game back in 3 months, so we'll have to be smart about that."

George Pickens to the #Cowboys makes a lot of sense on the field: X type, creates separation, wins downfield (corners, posts)

But there’s a reason the #Steelers traded him….

The Cowboys have been intentional in building a mature locker room.

How does GP affect that culture? TBD.
May 7, 2025 at 4:15 PM
🚨 #Cowboys are trading for #Steelers WR George Pickens

The Dallas Cowboys announce they’ve agreed to terms on a deal for Pittsburgh Steeler wide receiver George Pickens and a 2026 6th Round pick for a 2026 3rd Round pick and a 2027 5th Round pick.

Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers will make her "official" #WNBA debut on May 16.

On that date, her hometown of Hopkins, MN will rename the city "Paige Bueckers, MN" for the day.

In honor of that, DICK's Sporting Goods is releasing a T-shirt to commemorate the occasion. ⭐️🏀
