Edmonton was the last team standing in the Western Conference in June, and the Oilers look a step ahead of everyone else as we close out July. Several teams in the West have improved this offseason, particularly among the ones that did not make the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs. But as we reach the dead period of the NHL offseason, the Oilers look like the class of the conference after a breakthrough season and a couple of shrewd signings. How did all 16 teams in the West fare this offseason?

  • Rockies’ historic strikeout parade continues in 5-2 loss to Brewers
    Denver Post, Saturday - 09/07/2024 - 10:03 PM

    The 2024 Rockies are making the wrong kind of history. In their 5-2 loss to Milwaukee on Saturday night, the Rockies struck out 15 times as they continued their march toward ignominy. They have now whiffed 1,485 times, the most in the National League, and are well on pace to eclipse the franchise record of 1,543 Ks set last season.

  • CSU Rams handle Northern Colorado, but star wideout Tory Horton leaves game with injury
    Denver Post, Saturday - 09/07/2024 - 09:58 PM

    FORT COLLINS — Colorado State collected its first win in a Rocky Mountain Showdown tuneup, but the cost might have lasting effects on the Rams’ season. CSU defeated Northern Colorado, 38-17, in a Saturday performance at Canvas Stadium that will draw mixed reviews in its own right. But the biggest story moving forward could be the availability of star wide receiver Tory Horton for the showdown next weekend with rival Colorado in FoCo. The all-conference pass catcher left Saturday night’s game in the third quarter and did not return.

  • Renck: Time for Broncos’ Sean Payton to prove he’s worth $18 million by outcoaching Seattle’s Mike Macdonald
    Denver Post, Saturday - 09/07/2024 - 09:30 PM

    You could count on one hand the number of times Sean Payton seemed relaxed in his Friday news conferences last season. Maybe one finger. Like the middle one. That is what made Friday interesting and further proof of his comfort level with his second Broncos team entering its first game of the season.

  • Kris Bryant “running out of time” to return to Rockies this season
    Denver Post, Saturday - 09/07/2024 - 08:04 PM

    Kris Bryant, who has struggled with injuries throughout his unproductive, three-year tenure with the Rockies, could be done for the season as he continues dealing with a chronic lower-back injury. “He’s doing better. He’s feeling good,” manager Bud Black told reporters in Milwaukee on Saturday before the Rockies played the Brewers. But Black also said: “You know, in the NFL, you’ve got ‘probable,’ ‘questionable,’ and ‘doubtful.’ I’m going to say it’s questionable, but we’re running out of time.” Bryant, 32, has played just 159 games since signing a franchise-record, seven-year, $182 million free-agent contract in the spring of 2022.  He continues exercising and getting treatment to strengthen his back but is not doing baseball activities. Bryant has not played since Aug.

  • Keeler: Why does CU Buffs football coach Deion Sanders drive Nebraska fans nuts? “They wish they had him.”
    Denver Post, Saturday - 09/07/2024 - 07:36 PM

    LINCOLN, Neb. — Bring up Deion Sanders, and Rodney Lousberg can spot a jealous Nebraska fan from the Middle of Nowhere. “Every (Cornhuskers fan) goes, ‘He’s egotistical,'” Lousberg said of the Buffs’ second-year football coach before CU kicked off against rival Nebraska on Saturday night at Memorial Stadium. “I’m like, ‘Yeah.

  • The challenges are obvious at Northern Colorado, but Ed Lamb sees a locally-focused path to success
    Denver Post, Saturday - 09/07/2024 - 07:30 PM

    FORT COLLINS — There are a variety of ways to build a successful program in the ever-changing college football world. Ed Lamb has chosen the path he believes will help Northern Colorado claw its way toward the top of the Big Sky Conference, and it runs right through the heart of the Centennial State. “We have decided to take the long-term developmental approach and recruit Colorado high school kids,” Lamb said ahead of his team’s Saturday clash with Colorado State at Canvas Stadium.
