With the Canadiens up 4-3, Jake Evans skated full steam down the ice, grabbed a loose puck and scored an empty-netter with 56.9 seconds left on the clock. Immediately after giving his team a two-goal lead, though, he got leveled by the Jets’ Mark Scheifele on a hard, high and unsuspecting hit. Evans hit the ice hard and was down for a considerable amount of time. A number of medical professionals came out, including team doctors for both clubs....

“I will not move one inch away from that assessment—ever—no matter how flowery the media depictions of him are,” Owens added. Her comment comes days after she backed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s claim that Russia created Ukraine, which Putin has used to defend his decision to invade the country. “Ukraine wasn’t a thing until 1989. Ukraine was created by the Russians…They speak Russian,” Owens said on her talk show Tuesday....

Leadership in the House is less about getting people to like you than it is about inspiring fear, and there is no better practitioner of winning through intimidation than the former pest exterminator from Sugarland, Texas. DeLay is a cold, pragmatic politician. All of K Street lives in fear of him. He has threatened to cut off access to trade organizations that hire Democrats, and his aggressive fundraising stops just short of a shakedown....

Labor is on board with the central objective of McCain-Feingold: elimination of “soft money”-the rivers of unregulated cash from corporations, unions and wealthy individuals that flow to political parties. But it opposes the so-called “electioneering” provision, which bans advertising by unions and corporations for or against specific candidates within 60 days of a general election or 30 days of a primary. Unions believe the provision breaches their constitutional guarantee to free speech and that it singles out both labor and management while leaving other politically active groups unencumbered....

Jones is daring Ohio State NOT to start him in 2015. Why go through the motions? Why go back to Ginn Academy in Cleveland with high school coach Ted Ginn Sr. to announce you were coming back to Ohio State next season? That’s quite a production. Then again, so was the last month. Jones had the most unprecedented three-games-and-change joyride of perhaps any third-string quarterback in college football history. He made sure Ohio State finished off Michigan....
