The goal that pushed the Minnesota Wild past the Blue Jackets in a 2-1 win Oct. 18 at Grand Casino Arena was shot into an opening roughly the size of a basketball above goalie Cam Talbot's shoulder during a power play in the second period.
More: Columbus Blue Jackets stumble in 2-1 loss to Minnesota Wild
The guy who sent it there, Kirill Kaprizov, leads the NHL with 10 goals in nine games and makes $17 million a season. There wasn't much Talbot could've done, even with an unobstructed view of Kaprizov's shot, but the veteran backstop wore it anyway.
"Yeah, I think I gave him a little bit too much [to shoot at]," Talbot said. "He put it in a great spot, but the other four guys are doing their job. That's my guy. I've got to make that save."
Talbot's answer plus his impressive ability to remain solid into his upper 30s is how he became the first goalie in NHL history to play and win games for nine separate franchises during his Blue Jackets debut Oct. 9 in a victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. He was the least of the Jackets' concerns in St. Paul, Minnesota, where the Wild forced him to make 32 saves to keep it a one-goal differential.

MASSILLON − Fans of actor Jim Belushi exploded into applause when he arrived inside the Bloom Cannabis dispensary.
Admirers chanted his name as he climbed atop a table triumphantly: "Jim! Jim! Jim!" He was welcomed like a conquering hero of cannabis.
While the 72-year-old is known as a funnyman on screen, he's also in the cannabis business as the owner and operator of Belushi's Farm in Oregon.
Belushi was a special guest Oct. 1 of Bloom Cannabis, which also has locations in Akron, Athens, Columbus, Painesville, Seven Mile and Maryland. Founded in 2015 along the Rogue River in Southern Oregon, Belushi's Farm produces cannabis products in Ohio by Wondergrove.
Hundreds showed up at the Massillon dispensary and retail outlet, with a line stretching along the sidewalk in the shopping plaza on Federal Avenue NW.

As we have seen the past two years, a 12-team playoff is forgiving when it comes to early season losses. An early stumble does not have to result in panic as the expanded field allows for a mulligan or two – or three.
The above serves as ample reason as to why fans in Columbus and Eugene should turn the page and look ahead at what's next. While we are at it, what to make of a couple of other Big Ten teams after two weeks?
While Arch Manning rallied the Longhorns from a 23-3 deficit after three quarters to stun Ohio State and replace the Buckeyes atop the polls, Ryan Day's team is not about to disappear from the playoff conversation. There is much sting for sure in blowing a 20-point lead, but the larger picture is one that must be in focus because everything remains on the table.
Besides, fans in Columbus, perhaps more than any fan base in the country, know what it is like to have their team rebound following a most disappointing setback. See the 2024 loss against "The Team Up North" and what happened after that.
Those same fans likely desired to see their team keep its foot on the Longhorns' throat instead of letting up. Facing a fourth-and-four from the UT 39-yard line on the first series of the second half and with a 20-3 lead, Day elected to punt instead of attempting to keep the drive alive. The decision was made despite the outstanding first halves enjoyed by QB Julian Sayin (12-for-16, 192 yards) and receiver Jeremiah Smith (6-110). It is easy to Monday morning quarterback, though it is also easy to see the Buckeyes managed less 100 yards on only 22 plays the remainder of the game.

NHL rumors: Blue Jackets fans won't love Pierre LeBrun's Adam Fantilli update appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Members of the Columbus Blue Jackets are set to arrive for camp on September 16, with the first on-ice workouts scheduled for the next day. Earlier on Monday, the Blue Jackets added Cam Talbot to the team, bringing in another netminder for camp.
Still, there is one player on the roster who may not be on the ice on September 17. Adam Fantilli is still without a contract from the team, and talks with the restricted free agent are going slowly, according to Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic.
"Adam Fantilli remained unsigned Monday ahead of Blue Jackets camp opening this week. The sides continue to talk, which is good, but there's a sizeable gap to overcome. 'Very slow' was how one source described things," LeBrun wrote. "That negotiation needs a positive uptick. The slowness certainly hasn't been for a lack of effort from either side this summer. There have been offers and counter-offers, but they're just not there yet."

The top-ranked Ohio State football team started the year with a 56-3 win over Ball State, but the degree of difficulty cranks up significantly with a Week 2 matchup against Texas.
OSU's game against the No. 3 Longhorns is part of what experts rank as one of the hardest 2026 schedules in the country. In fact, the Buckeyes entered this week as the underdog, ending a streak of 32 straight games in which Ohio State was favored.

For the third consecutive offseason, Ohio State's coaching staff underwent a significant change as Ryan Day had to replace one of his coordinators.
And for the second consecutive time, Day looked to the NFL for an answer.
Following Brian Hartline's departure for a Group of Five head coaching opportunity, Day tabbed former Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith to take over play-calling duties for a Buckeyes offense headlined by Heisman Trophy hopefuls Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith.
REQUIRED READING: Arthur Smith made his mark in a high-achieving family. Can he leave one at Ohio State?
Smith is the latest big name to come to Columbus to be part of Day's staff, following in the footsteps of former offensive coordinator Chip Kelly — a decision that kick-started this trend as it came when Day gave up his play-calling duties — and Matt Patricia, who willed the Buckeyes' defense into one of the nation's top units last season.

Defense attorneys for the New Jersey man accused of killing Columbus Blue Jackets forward Johnny Gaudreau and his brother in an August 2024 crash will retest their client's blood from that night.
Sean Higgins, 44, appeared Sept. 11 via video conference in Salem County Superior Court, where he faces charges including reckless vehicular homicide and aggravated manslaughter in connection with the Aug. 29, 2024, deaths of Gaudreau, 31, and his brother Matthew Gaudreau, 29.
The Sept. 11 video conference happened a day after attorneys and the judge met to discuss procedural issues, Judge Michael Silvanio said. Defense attorney Richard Klineburger III said the issues have to do with data and diagrams from state police, including a crash reconstruction report and blood testing.
Depending on the evidence prosecutors share and the results of the new blood test, the defense might ask for a hearing to determine whether to exclude evidence or witness testimony at trial, Klineburger said.
Silvanio declined to issue any orders, saying prosecutors and defense attorneys have shown a good-faith effort.

The number on this game says the two teams are the same, and that is the part worth arguing. Texas is a 1.5-point home favorite against Ohio State in the biggest non-conference game of the season, which is the market telling you that once you account for the Longhorns' stadium and crowd, there is nothing left to separate them.
I don't believe that is true, and the way to find out is not to argue about it in the abstract. Instead, I like to walk through the rosters position by position, the way we did with this game a year ago, and see who is actually holding the better hand when the ball is snapped in Austin on Saturday night.
This is the sixth meeting between these programs, and the third in the last 20 months. Ohio State leads the series 3-2 and has won the last two: 28-14 in the Cotton Bowl semifinal in January 2025 on the way to a national ****** le, and 14-7 in Columbus to open last season.
Remember those two scores. They matter more by the end of this than anything else I am about to write.
Below I compare the teams by position group and offer up a best bet on the weekend's biggest college football game.

Week 0 and Week 1 gave us plenty of drama! UMass gave us one of the biggest upsets in modern day College Football when they knocked off Rutgers, while Michigan needed a diabolical miracle to beat Western Michigan at the buzzer on a Hail Mary. Oregon also a close call at home to Boise State, so the Big Ten was off to a rough start, but they have a chance to make a statement in Week 2. Texas hosts Ohio State in Week 2 as the headline
Well, here are my Top 25 rankings entering Week 2 of the 2026 season, along with quick overviews and predictions for each team. Every Sunday moving forward you can find my Top 25 here on NBC!

1. Ohio State Buckeyes
2026 Record: 1-0 (0-0)
Last Game: 56-3 win vs Ball State
Next Game: At #5 Texas — Saturday at 7:30 PM ET
Three different Buckeyes threw for five touchdowns against Ball State and three different rushers had a touchdown as well. Ohio State even scored in the final two minutes against Ball State in a 56-3 win. The Buckeyes were shaking off all the rust and getting all their guys confidence up ahead of the top five showdown with Texas. Ohio State won last year's meeting versus Texas in Columbus, 14-7. We'll see what happens this year! I say Ohio State 21, Texas 20.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WEHT) — The University of Southern Indiana women's volleyball managed to steal one set away in their 3-1 loss against the 21st ranked Indiana Hoosiers Monday afternoon.
Screaming Eagles head coach Jeffrey Aucoin said he hopes his team can build upon the winning set and take it with them through the rest of the season.
"We were a little bit more aggressive," he said. "You know we were just missing in the first set I think set two things started to go our way. We're we're getting back into our rhythm and we're just trying to build momentum. It's easy in these types of matches to put pressure on being perfect and dominating and want to prove everybody something, but, it's really important that you just put pressure on creating opportunities. And I think that's what we did in that second set and we took advantage of those opportunities to finish out the set."
Next, Southern Indiana will head to Columbus, Ohio to compete in the Sports Import Classic starting with Youngstown State on Friday, September 11th.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. — Remember the name Lilia Calvert, she's made her arrival, and she's not going anywhere.
Rutgers beat Princeton 4-2 on Sunday at Yurcak Field, and the freshman who gave away the penalty that let the Tigers back into the match in the first half scored twice in four minutes to end it in the second. Both were the first goals of her college career. Both came on the only two shots she took all night. In between, she was pulled off the field twice.
Rutgers arrived at 0-1-3, four matches into a season that has produced a shot profile better than its record and nothing in the win column to show for either. The Scarlet Knights had led Providence by two with half an hour left eight days earlier and gave the lead back inside 69 seconds. Before that came two scoreless road draws and an opening loss at Tennessee. This was the second home match Rutgers has actually played this fall, with the Boston College opener still unscheduled after the weather took it.
Princeton came in at 2-3-0 and with considerably more to lose. The Tigers were picked first in the Ivy League preseason poll after winning a second straight Ivy **** le in 2025, opened the season 3-0 over Loyola (Md.), and were playing their second match in four days following a trip to Columbus to face No. 8 Ohio State. Sean Driscoll, in his 12th season, had platooned Cecilia Cerone and Sydney Romano in goal through the nonconference schedule and gotten two shutouts out of the arrangement. Cerone played all 90 on Sunday and conceded four.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Jeremiah Smith has said that if he's going to win the Heisman Trophy, he'll need a season like the one Alabama's DeVonta Smith had while winning in 2020.
The Ohio State junior started making his case Saturday, matching one of Smith's many accomplishments in the process.
Smith had eight receptions for 151 yards and struck a Heisman pose after his second touchdown during top-ranked Ohio State's 56-3 victory over Ball State.
He became the third receiver since 2015 from a Power Four conference to have at least two games with at least 150 receiving yards and two touchdowns in one half. DeVonta Smith had four at Alabama and Ja'Marr Chase did it three times at LSU.
"It was a good start. Came out playing fast as an offense, defense made stops," Smith said. "The first drive (a three-and-out) we didn't come out how we wanted to. Second drive we came out and executed and scored a touchdown. Felt like we had a good day on offense for sure."

Ball State football season got off to as tough a start as one could imagine.
Ball State took a trip to Columbus, Ohio, to take on No. 1 Ohio State in its 2026 season opener. The Buckeyes lived up to their billing as the top-ranked team in the country, dominating from start to finish on their way to a 49-3 victory over the Cardinals.
Here are three takeaways from Ball State's season-opening loss at Ohio State:
Well, they are No. 1 for a reason. Ohio State is a perennial national ****** le contender, and the Buckeyes certainly looked the part in their opener. After a three-and-out on its opening drive, the Ohio State offense was virtually unstoppable for the rest of the game, finishing with 671 total yards. Meanwhile, the defense suffocated Ball State and held the Cardinals to just three points and 165 total yards, including a third quarter where Ball State's offense totaled -7 yards.
Ohio State's offensive superstars showed out. Quarterback Julian Sayin went 21-for-25 with 320 yards and four total touchdowns (three passing, one rushing), while wide receiver Jeremiah Smith hauled in eight catches for 151 yards and two touchdowns, all in the first half. Running backs Bo Jackson and Ja'Kobi Jackson also had big games with 87 and 83 rushing yards, respectively, and one touchdown apiece.

On August 6, PENN Entertainment (NASDAQ:PENN) reported second-quarter results that flipped from a year-ago loss into a profit. Net income came in at $32.6 million, compared with a loss of $18.3 million in the same quarter of 2025. Revenue rose to $1.86 billion from $1.77 billion, and Adjusted EBITDA climbed to $312.6 million from $236.1 million. Diluted earnings per share landed at $0.24, versus a loss per share of $0.12 a year earlier. For a company whose digital business has weighed on results for years, that combination stands out.
The Retail segment, which covers PENN's casino properties across the Northeast, South, West and Midwest, generated $1.5 billion in revenue and $517.2 million in Segment Adjusted EBITDAR, a margin of 34.4%. Nine properties posted their best second quarter ever for both revenue and Adjusted EBITDAR, a sign the strength wasn't confined to one or two markets. June brought two new additions to the portfolio: a hotel tower at Hollywood Columbus and the new Hollywood Casino Aurora, both of which the company said are already drawing strong visitation.
The balance sheet also moved in the right direction. Total liquidity stood at $1.9 billion as of June 30, including $887.2 million in cash. Traditional net debt fell to $1,927.5 million from $2,217.5 million at the end of 2025, pulling traditional net leverage down to 2.9 times from 4.5 times over that span. Capital expenditures dropped to $97.5 million in the quarter from $159.4 million a year earlier. On May 15, PENN repaid the remaining $106.7 million balance of its 2.75% convertible notes, wiping out roughly 4.6 million potentially dilutive shares in the process.
The Interactive segment still lost money, an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $9.5 million, though that's a sharp improvement from the $62.0 million loss posted in the second quarter of 2025. Revenue for the segment reached $349.4 million, but $185.5 million of that figure came from a tax gross-up rather than actual wagering activity, a distinction that matters when sizing up the segment's real growth. PENN also leaned on refinancing to manage its debt load rather than paying it down outright: on April 16, it extended its $1.0 billion revolving credit facility and $446.9 million term loan A to 2031, and on May 28, it repriced and extended its term loan B facility to 2033.
Total traditional debt still sat at $2,814.7 million at quarter's end. Other expenses jumped to $43.0 million for the first six months of 2026 from just $2.2 million a year earlier, driven by transaction costs, severance tied to a corporate reorganization, and settlement costs connected to the company's cooperation agreement with HG Vora Capital Management. Cash rent payments to REIT landlords also remained a heavy recurring cost, $247.1 million for the quarter alone.

Private equity firm Trident Management appears to be an early mover in bolting together small courier businesses onto a platform that can offer shippers greater regional density and reach as an alternative to large, legacy parcel carriers.
Trident-backed Priority Courier Experts, which serves B2B customers in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and upper Midwest, last week said it acquired Priority Dispatch Inc. and Diamond Expedited, Midwest providers of same-day courier and box-truck freight services for the healthcare and e-commerce industries, and Atlanta-based Inpax Shipping Solutions.
Priority Dispatch was founded in Cincinnati in 1973. Diamond Expedited began serving the greater Chicago area in 1995. The companies, which were bought from the same individual, also cover Columbus, Cleveland, Dayton and Toledo, Ohio; Indianapolis; Detroit and Milwaukee, with 43 employees and more than 500 independent-contractor drivers. Their combined delivery traffic is about 250,000 orders per year.
Inpax is active in seven markets across the South, including Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina and Florida. With 75 employees and more than 335 owner-operators it delivers more than 400,000 orders per year. In addition to e-commerce pickup and delivery, it offers local and regional truck brokerage and tractor trailer freight.
In December 2024, Priority Courier Experts purchased Indianapolis-based Now Courier.

For Dylan Sprouse, growing up on set may have not been the suite life after all.
The actor, 34, made his screen debut when he was just an infant in 1993, with him and his twin brother Cole Sprouse trading appearances on the sitcom Grace Under Fire.
Dylan and Cole Sprouse became Disney favorites when they began starring in "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody" together (@ Getty Images)
But it would be 2005, when they were 12 years old, when they became America's new favorite set of twins when they began starring as Zack and Cody Martin in Disney's The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.
They continued with the show's spin-off, The Suite Life on Deck, until 2011, and Dylan continues to act. But on a new episode of his podcast, Wildmen with Brendan Columbus (the son of filmmaker Chris Columbus), he compared his work as a child star to "child labor."

With the AMA Pro Motocross Championship decided, the focus now shifts to the 2026 SuperMotocross World Championship. Now in its fourth running, the SMX puts the combined best of the Monster Energy Supercross and Pro Motocross season in a three-round playoff for the ultimate bragging rights.
Supermotocross incorporates the results from 17 rounds of Supercross racing, 11 rounds of Pro Motocross, to seed the three-round playoffs. Here's what you need to know heading into the first playoff round, September 12 at Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.
Qualifying runs on a combined points tally accrued through both the Supercross and Pro Motocross seasons. The top 20 in combined points in each of the 450 and 250 divisions automatically qualify and are seeded into the SMX field. An additional two spots are decided by a Wild Card race featuring riders that placed 21st through 30th. Any racer outside the top 30 who won a Supercross Main Event or a Pro Motocross moto is also eligible to contest the Wild Card race.
Once the seeding is decided, the riders' season-long points are reset going into the playoffs. The top seed restarts with 25 points, the second seed with 22, third with 20, fourth with 18, then single-point steps down through the 20th seed who starts with 2 points. Anyone outside the top 20 begins the playoffs at zero.
Playoff 1 uses the same structure as a regular Supercross or Pro Motocross race, with 25 points for first, down to 1 point for 21st. Playoff 2 pays double points and the SMX World Championship Final pays triple. As a result, the format keeps the ***** le live until the last round.

The Oregon Ducks continue to load up on recruiting visits for a critical November matchup at Autzen Stadium. The Ducks will host five-star wideout Braylon Clark on Nov. 14, when Michigan comes to Eugene for an important Big Ten clash.
Clark, a top 10 player in the 2028 recruiting class, has lined up six visits for the fall. The 6-foot-3 receiver from Charlotte, North Carolina, will check out LSU, Texas A&M, Alabama and Miami this fall, as well as taking two trips to Ohio State. He'll be in Columbus to see the Buckeyes take on the Ducks before heading to Eugene the following weekend.
Ohio State is seen as the favorite, but Oregon has also been involved from the start. The Ducks have not added a commitment in the 2028 cycle yet, but Dan Lanning has had historic success landing elite wideouts on the recruiting trail in recent years. Clark could continue the trend, but the Ducks will have to put in the work.
"My favorite thing that Dan Lanning has built is the culture he built and it gets me excited that I have an opportunity to play for him," Clark told Rivals. "(I have a) great relationship with receivers coach (Ross Douglas) and seeing their receiver production."
Clark broke out as a sophomore at Providence Day School, catching 65 passes for 1,093 yards and 14 touchdowns. He's already off to a hot start in two games so far this season, making 11 catches for 209 yards and three touchdowns.

Carles Gil put on a clinic to lead the New England Revolution to a 3-1 win over Columbus Crew at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field.
And in the process, the former Landon Donovan MLS MVP placed himself in some rarefied air on Sunday.
With his 1g/2a, the Revs captain increased his career total to 152 goal contributions (57g/95a), making him the 20th player in MLS history to reach 150-plus goal contributions.
Gil picked up an **** ist on Matt Polster's 32nd-minute equalizer that canceled out Brais Méndez's opening goal for Columbus.

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL — If you came into this weekend not knowing who A'mir Sears was on an unranked Columbus (FL) team that was supposed to lose to nationally-ranked No. 2 Bishop Gorman (NV), well, you do now.
Sears had his coming out party on national television, catching five passes for 67 yards with a pair of scores, along with three interceptions defense as the Explorers stunned the second-ranked Gaels, 33-28.
"It's not just a ***** le," Sears said. "I'm the No. 1 player in the country."
Sears made that case emphatically, even as Bishop Gorman quarterback Ace Amina tried to test him repeatedly.
And every time Amina (24-42, 334 yards, 3 TD, 3 INT) chose to throw in his direction, it was often either an interception or an incompletion, and that's when Sears missed much of the second half after the second interception due to cramping in both of his legs.

A week after taking down the No. 1 team in the country, Bishop Gorman has ascended to the top spot and will travel cross-country for its next marquee game.
The Gaels' first game atop the MaxPreps national rankings will be in Miami on Saturday against Columbus, the perennial multi-sport powerhouse. The Explorers opened their season last week with a 45-7 rout of Southridge, while Gorman took down St. John Bosco 38-28.
Gorman's junior quarterback Ace Amina threw for 227 yards and four touchdowns last week, but the Gaels have plenty of star power on defense, too, including senior four-star corners Hayden Stepp (Oregon commit) and Kamil Loud (Cal).
The player to watch for Columbus is five-star athlete A'mir Sears, who is committed to the hometown Hurricanes as a corner but could also end up getting receiver reps in college.

Dylan Sprouse had barely started his question before warning the two theater people sitting across from him that they might not like where it was going.
During the August 25 episode of Wildmen, Sprouse told cohost Brendan Columbus and comedian Gianmarco Soresi that moving from California to New York exposed him to a theater culture he initially struggled to understand. "It took me a while to get along with any theater person because I do...find them intensely nerdy," he said, according to Entertainment Weekly.
His problem had a soundtrack. At NYU, some of Sprouse's new theater friends would suddenly break into show tunes during ordinary conversations. He was coming from California and listening to Avenged Sevenfold, which he readily admitted was "equally as nerdy."
The judgment did not last. Sprouse said moving to New York eventually changed his understanding of people who deeply love theater, even if he still does not routinely seek out Broadway shows himself.
Sprouse introduced the subject by asking Columbus and Soresi, "Can I ask you both this as theater people?" He then acknowledged that his reaction to theater enthusiasts was not particularly charitable when he first encountered more of them.
