Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman reportedly turned down NHL Draft ... (Detroit Sports Nation)

According to a report, the Detroit Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman had a trade offer on the table from the Buffalo Sabres during the NHL Draft.

But that wouldn’t have been the case, either, if the Red Wings hadn’t picked him. But it would have certainly been a disappointment if they went [back to the hotel] after four hours of waiting having not been selected. It’s been a little over two weeks since the Detroit Red Wings drafted Marco Kasper. But they weren’t the only team that really wanted to do so.

DETROIT -- Detroit Red Wings goalie prospect Sebastian Cossa isn't fazed knowing that when a game is on the line, he is his team's last line of defense.

"Just taking care of my body," Cossa said. "No matter where I play, there's time for me to prove myself," Cossa said. "I put a lot of work into my game," he said. "A lot of hockey," the young netminder said about his 2021-22 campaign. "Him coming up was great, but they (Detroit's player development staff) tried to keep their distance a bit and let me play my game." I like that about the position, for sure."

D.C. may end right-on-red for cars, let cyclists yield at stop signs (The Washington Post)

The Safer Streets Amendment Act of 2022 would ban on right on red for cars and allow people on bicycles and scooters to treat a stop sign as a yield.

“This includes respect and compliance for traffic laws so that all road users may share the road responsibly, predictably and safely.” “Stopping and starting can be hard on the bike in the neighborhood if it’s every block. The D.C. Council’s transportation committee this month approved legislation that would allow people on bicycles and scooters to treat a stop sign as a yield sign. “If it makes people safe, I’m all for it.” “I’ve just almost been hit by so many cars turning right on red because they don’t ever look. “This bill takes several important steps to reprioritize streets for people over cars and increase traffic safety for all, no matter how you get around the District.” So I think we should just go ahead, just ban them all.” The measures are part of the Safer Streets Amendment Act of 2022, which incorporates language from several pieces of legislation aimed at making walking and cycling safer. It cited a 1981 study showing that after states in the mid-1970s legalized right on red, there was a significant increase in drivers making such turns and striking pedestrians and bicyclists, with the majority of incidents involving drivers looking left for a gap in traffic and hitting a pedestrian or cyclist to the right of the vehicle. Soon, however, D.C. cyclists might not have to worry about breaking that law. For vehicles, right turns on a red light — legalized in D.C. in 1979 amid a nationwide push to allow the turns as a fuel-saving measure during a global oil crisis — has created a “hostile environment for people on our streets,” regularly leading to pedestrians “nearly being hit by cars carelessly turning against a red light,” the committee wrote. D.C. Council member Mary M. Cheh (D-Ward 3), chairwoman of the council’s Committee on Transportation and the Environment, requested that the bill be included on the agenda for a vote when the council reconvenes in September.

Meanwhile, the color marked denotes the country where this freedom cannot be exercised. According to the report, in the National Congress, the law of free access to information is circumvented; an example of this is that when this media requests information in the Senate or the Chamber of Deputies, the data is scarce, thus restricting the constitutional rights and the laws of access to public information. The Dominican Republic is one of the countries marked in red as a model of a territory in which press freedom rights are violated, according to the weekly report on the state of press freedom in the Americas presented by the Inter-American Press Association (IAPA).

Why new Detroit Red Wings D Olli Määttä sees an opportunity to ... (Detroit Free Press)

Finnish defenseman Olli Määttä sees one-year deal as springboard to success with the Detroit Red Wings.

I think this is a great opportunity to show that I do have a lot more in me, that I can play in this league for a long time and in a bigger role than I’ve had the last couple seasons. They are up and coming and they want to be contenders and I want to be a part of it." "But the first mentality is I go out there and keep my own goal clean." Seider, the 2022 NHL rookie of the year, boosted the offense the Wings got from the back end, and while Määttä was primarily added for his defensive game, his history shows he can contribute points, too. "I know I have a lot more in me. "Guys I talked to were pretty astute," Yzerman said.

Former Detroit Red Wings player Bobby Ryan apologized for his actions at the Nashville airport. You think using 5 forwards on the Power Play is a flawed strategy that breaks from tradition? Can’t imagine the Sabres offered a king’s ransom to move up one spot. Kasper played in the Swedish League, but he is Austrian. “What if” stories are always entertaining to discuss even though they don’t truly matter once decisions have been made. The Red Wings weren’t the only NHL team planning to use a top 10 pick to draft Kasper.

Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said on Friday Russia had committed a war crime and called for international condemnation. The United Nations is prepared to send experts to Olenivka to investigate if it obtains consent from both parties, UN spokesperson Farhan Haq said. British MI6 foreign intelligence agency chief Richard Moore added that Russia is "running out of steam." A charity linked to Ukraine's Azov Regiment said on Telegram it was not immediately able to confirm or deny the authenticity of the Russian list of people killed and wounded. Earlier on Saturday, Ukraine's military said more than 100 Russian soldiers had been killed and seven tanks destroyed in fighting in the south on Friday, including the Kherson region that is the focus of Kyiv's counteroffensive in that part of the country and a key link in Moscow's supply lines. In a late-night address, Zelenskyy also said the hundreds of thousands of people still in combat zones in the larger Donbas region, which contains Donetsk as well as the neighbouring Luhansk region, needed to leave.

Gazprom has previously suspended gas shipments to other EU countries, including the Netherlands, Poland and Bulgaria, because they would not pay in rubles.

In southern Ukraine, one person was reported killed and six injured in shelling in a residential area in Mykolaiv, local officials said. Separatist authorities and Russian officials said the attack Friday killed 53 Ukrainian POWs and wounded another 75. The International Red Cross asked to visit the prison to make sure the scores of wounded POWs had proper treatment, but said its request had not been granted so far.

Gazprom has previously suspended gas shipments to other EU countries, including the Netherlands, Poland and Bulgaria, because they would not pay in rubles. Russia’s Defense Ministry on Saturday issued a list naming 48 Ukrainian fighters, their ages ranging from 20 to 62, who died in the attack; it was not clear if the ministry had revised its fatality count. Friday’s attack on the prison reportedly killed Ukrainian soldiers who were captured in May after the fall of Mariupol, another port city where troops and the Azov Regiment of the national guard famously held out against a monthslong Russian siege. Elsewhere in eastern Ukraine, Russian rockets hit a school building in Kharkiv, the country’s second-largest city, overnight, and another attack occurred about an hour later, Mayor Ihor Terekhov said Saturday. There were no immediate reports of injuries. Separatist authorities and Russian officials said the attack killed 53 Ukrainian POWs and wounded another 75. Both sides alleged the attack on the prison was premeditated and intended to silence the Ukrainian prisoners and to destroy evidence, including of possible atrocities.

The bus station in the city of Sloviansk was also hit, according to Mayor Vadim Lyakh. Sloviansk is near the front line of fighting as Russian and separatist forces try to take full control of the Donetsk region, which along with Luhansk is one of two eastern provinces that Russia has recognized as sovereign states. Moscow was reviewing plans to completely annex Kherson, Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia, in clear violation of the U.N. Charter, and with a “blatant disregard for the principles of national sovereignty,” she said. Ukraine’s security agencies accused Russia of “cynically violating” the agreement in a joint statement late Friday. The sudden transfer of prisoners to a new location as well as telephonic conversations intercepted by Ukrainians would prove the Russian involvement, the statement said. After months under siege at the Azovstal steel plant in the southern city of Mariupol, Ukrainian soldiers surrendered and were evacuated to the Russian occupied territory in Donetsk as prisoners, with the mediation of the U.N. and ICRC, which acted as guarantors of their lives. The ICRC said, in a statement on Friday, that it was seeking access and offered its support in evacuation of the wounded, reiterating that all prisoners of war were protected under international humanitarian law, irrespective of their location. Calling the strike on a prison in a Russian-controlled territory a “war crime,” Zelenskyy said in a late-night video address that Moscow had “proven with numerous terrorist attacks that it is the biggest source of terrorism in the world today.”

There were no immediate reports of injuries. “At this stage of the war, terror for Russia is the main weapon,” Zelensky said in another Facebook video posted Saturday afternoon. The first deputy head of the Kherson regional council, Yuri Sobolevsky, told residents to stay from away from Russian ammunition dumps. “We are ready to send a team of experts capable of conducting an investigation with the permission of the parties,” Farhan Haq, deputy spokesman of the UN Secretary-General, told Russian media. Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said the order applied to about 200,000 civilians who remain there, because there will be no heating fuel or electricity available once the weather turns cold. Both sides say the attack was premeditated and intended to silence the prisoners inside and destroy evidence of potential atrocities. It’s used Western-supplied long-range missile systems to badly damage three bridges across the Dnipro in recent weeks, cutting off Kherson city, the first town captured by Russia after the Feb. 24 invasion. Late Saturday, Russia’s Defense Ministry issued a list naming 48 Ukrainian fighters who died in the attack, aged 20 to 62. So far, we have not yet received the lists.

It worked, with Wave FC not getting so many actual shots, but able to keep control of the tempo of the game for long stretches. That proved vital (for Chicago), because moments later Dahlkemper picked up her second yellow card for holding onto Pugh on an aerial ball, and was sent off shortly before the hour mark. Sheridan was pushed to make a couple assists, with Wave FC defenders trying to keep Pugh at bay, while Alex Morgan had a great chance that was saved easily by Chicago defender Alyssa Naeher. Mallory Pugh had a great look shortly after but her breakaway attempt on the other end went off the side netting. By the 22nd minute, Naomi Girma had picked up a clear yellow card as well, with both center backs having to play with caution the rest of the way. About two minutes later, San Diego had a good look off a corner, with Taylor Kornieck heading from close range over the target.
