Forward and free agent Patrick Kane is not expected to sign a new contract until the start of the 2023-2024 season.
This was announced by his agent Pat Brisson in an interview with the ESPN network on Thursday.

The 34-year-old veteran developed hip loss on June 1 and may not be active for four to six months.
“First we have to make sure he’s 100% fit and feeling good,” said Brisson. Then we can decide where to go. There will be many organizations that will do well, others badly and there will be teams that will be hit by injuries.
So it was only in December, after a careful analysis of the available forces, that he was able to decide where he would go. The primary goal would be to add a fourth Stanley Cup to his resume.
A general manager who spoke to US media even believes some teams would be willing to hire Kane now and pay for his fitness, but there will be a lack of salary places for the most part.
“They could offer me a contract for a year or two now, for $7 million a season, I don’t even know if I’d care because that’s not what he needs,” Brisson explained. We’ll see how he feels in due course.”
“We will decide where to go. I don’t think many teams would turn down our offer,” the influential agent added confidently.
Drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks as the first pick at the 2007 amateur auction, Kane retired on February 28 with the Illinois club. He was traded to the New York Rangers, which also included the Arizona Coyotes.
In 73 games with the Hawks and the Blueshirts, the winger scored 21 goals and provided 36 assists for 57 points. This is his lowest points tally in his career.
In the playoffs, Kane had six points (1-5) in Rangers’ seven games. The Big Apple Club was eliminated in the first round by the New Jersey Devils.

It was Kei Kamara’s first game against CF Montreal since the pre-season contract dispute with the team.
That clash marked the debut of striker Kwadwo Opoku, who joined the Montreal side from Los Angeles FC last week. The 21-year-old was used for 58 minutes by head coach Hernan Losada.
Because of this loss, Montreal now has a record of 8-12-2. The team sits 10th in the East, three points behind ninth-placed Fire.

As a university student, you went through a complicated situation after your sports coach Sebastián Avellino was arrested in Brazil for making racist gestures. That’s not all though, as after the 2023 Copa Sudamericana loss to Corinthians, coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo was on red alert due to the surge in Guillain-Barré Syndrome cases.
Given this situation, the Lance of Brazil magazine reported that the Timao consulted the Conmebol the possibility of changing the venue for the second leg, which will be played at the Monumental Stadium. Corinthians argues that the national state of emergency has been in effect since Saturday 8 July. The reaction of the highest authority in South American football was not long in coming.

Northwestern University has fired Jim Foster as head baseball coach just days after news of controversy surrounding him surfaced.
Foster’s firing as coach after a year was announced to the players in a video call Thursday afternoon with Northwestern University President Michael Schill and athletic director Derrick Gragg, sources told the Tribune. Assistant coach Brian Anderson, a former Chicago White Sox player who was part of the 2005 World Series-winning team, will oversee the program “during this time of transition,” the university said in a statement.
Foster could not be immediately reached for comment. University officials sent a statement from Gragg, which said Foster had been relieved of his duties “effective immediately.”
“Nothing will ever be more important to Northwestern than providing its students with a place that allows them to thrive in the classroom, in the community and competitively at the highest level and build a culture that allows our employees to thrive unfold,” Gragg said in the statement. “This was an ongoing situation and many factors were considered before arriving at this resolution. As Director of Athletics, I take responsibility for hiring our head coaches and we will share our next steps with you as they develop.”
In a message to parents obtained by the Tribune, Gragg said the decision “was based on several factors, including but not limited to the authentic feedback we received from your student-athletes in post-season surveys.”
Foster’s departure comes days after the university fired head coach Pat Fitzgerald amid a bullying scandal that Schill said has done significant harm to students and the university.
Current and former players, alumni and those associated with the baseball program previously told the Tribune that they had alerted university officials — including Schill and Gragg — to problematic behavior by Foster that began last fall before the team’s season 2023 started. At least some of these complaints led to an investigation by Human Resources.
The university’s investigation found “sufficient evidence” that Foster had “committed bullying and abusive conduct,” according to an internal HR document seen by the Tribune. The investigation further concluded that Foster “made an inappropriate comment about a female employee and spoke negatively about his employees to other employees.”
The HR document states that the results of the investigation have been communicated to those responsible at the Department of Athletics and Leisure “in order to take appropriate remedial action”. It’s unclear what action the university took on Foster, who joined Northwestern after six years at Army West Point.

The HR document does not elaborate on the complaints against Foster. But current and former players and people close to the program, who spoke anonymously to the Tribune for fear of retaliation, said Foster’s interactions with players and staff could be cold at times and combative at others.
They said there have been incidents where Foster has used foul language at staff. In other cases, they claim, he discouraged players from seeing the team coach or pressured injured players to cut back on their injury return timetable for fear they would lose their place on the team.
Although these allegations were not made public, signs of unrest were evident. In February, hitting coach and recruiting coordinator Dusty Napoleon, who had been with the team since 2015, left the team before the first game of the season. By the time the team returned from that first road trip, pitching coach Jon Strauss and operations director Chris Beacom had also left the team.
A month later, growing concerns about Foster’s leadership began to spread outside of the team’s inner circle. In March, Northwestern grad and longtime professional sports host Glenn Geffner emailed Gragg.
In that email, which Geffner later shared with the Tribune, he wrote, “Eight months after Jim Foster arrived in Evanston, the Northwestern baseball program lies in shambles, both on and more urgently off the field pitch.”
The email also summarized topics that Geffner wrote had been shared with him by “current and former members of the Northwestern baseball family for decades.”
“If the truth about what is happening at Northwestern University under Jim Foster becomes widely known, the black eye will be severe for the program and the university,” he wrote.

After the team’s 10-40 season wrapped up, 16 players entered the transfer portal, sources told the Tribune, and at least half a dozen players met individually with Gragg or other athletic department heads to express their concerns about Foster.
“The season was a disaster in every respect. And the consequences are even worse,” Geffner wrote in another email to Gragg sent in June and shared with the Tribune. “The number of young men entering the transfer portal because of Jim Foster is frightening, embarrassing and sad at the same time. This is unprecedented in the history of our university. Northwestern let these student athletes down.”
Foster’s previous coaching stints included six years as head coach at Army West Point, two seasons as assistant head coach at Boston College, and nine seasons as head coach at the University of Rhode Island.
Former Rhode Island players who spoke to the Tribune called Foster a great leader and mentor — a teacher, tough but fair, who cares deeply about his teams.
“He was by far the best coach I’ve ever had,” said Josh Nestor, 39, who played for Foster in 2005 and 2006.
In 2011, during Foster’s time in Rhode Island, 20-year-old pitcher Joseph Ciancola collapsed while running during an outdoor strength and conditioning session with the team and died in a hospital three days later.
According to The Providence Journal, Ciancola’s family sued the university and eventually settled for $1.45 million.

When does the 2023 Women’s World Cup start?
The opening match of this 2023 Women’s World Cup will be played on Thursday 20th July, while the final will take place exactly a month later on Sunday 20th August.
The 2023 MLB draft featured one of the largest selections of high school and collegiate talent in recent memory. While players keep deviating from their predictions over the course of 10 rounds and 614 picks, there are always bargains to be had.
On this week’s Pipeline podcast, writers Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo chose what they thought were the best picks in each round.
round 1 Aidan Miller, SS, JW Mitchell HS (FL), Phillies #27; 13th place Mayo: He’s a guy who was high up in the draft in terms of talent. So getting him 27th was a very good achievement for the Phillies, even if they had to top the rank to sign him. … All this guy did was hit and hit to gain power. Probably moves to third base, but by the end of the first round I thought it was very good value for her – a potential top 10 talent.
round 2 Walker Martin, SS, Eaton HS (CO), Giants #52; 30th place Callis: Athletic Colorado High School shortstop, former quarterback. He might grow out of that position, he’s very athletic, he might end up on third base, but he has the power profile there. This was a guy who showed interest in the second half of the first round and they got him in the middle of the second round.
round 3 Eric Bitonti, SS, Aquinas HS (CA), Brewers #87; 68th place Mayo: 6’1″, left-handed hitting infielder, lots of raw power, very athletic. I doubt he plays shortstop in the long run — although he showed very good body control there on occasion — I think he’ll move to third base, but I like what the Brewers have done with some of their high-end high school players. … For the third round, the uptrend and cap were sizeable.
round 4 Cole Schoenwetter, RHP, San Marcos HS (CA), Reds #105; Place No. 43 Callis: Most of your high-paying high school guys that don’t get drafted on day one, you think they’re going to move to the teams with the biggest bonus pools on day two, or they won’t sign, in your opinion. When then [the Reds] When he defeated Schoenwetter early in the fourth round, I was like, “Whoa.”… That really surprised me. … They came back with the high profile high school guy.
**Round 5 Spencer Nivens, OF, Missouri State (MO), Royals #142, ranked #119 **Mayo: He really packs a punch. He doesn’t hit, makes a lot of contact. … He has the chance to maybe average. Left-handed, really good swing, maybe has a chance to play in midfield, maybe moves into a corner but I think it’s the racquet that’s really interesting there.
round 6 Cooper Pratt, SS, Magnolia Heights HS (MS), Brewers #182; 45th place Callis: One of my favorite draft players…he’s the right-handed version of who? Mayo: Gunnar Henderson. Callis: Yes. He’s a privateer from the south, similar build, very advanced racquet. I’m calling it – this is the steal of the draft. Cooper Pratt will be in the Futures Game in a few years.
round 7 George Volkow, OF, Downers Grove North HS (IL), White Sox No. 209; Place No. 71 Mayo: Large left-handed power stick. There’s some questions about the hitting tool, some swings and misses, the length of his swing and he needs to work on some swing decisions…but he’s got tremendous strength, is athletic, runs really well, could be a real fielder and has a good arm.
round 8 Julian Brock, C, Louisiana Lafayette, Rangers No. 231; place no. 122) Callis: I think that’s a steal for Rangers. The college fishing harvest has been very dismal this year. He’s got more power than punch, he’s got strength, he’s got more raw power, but he’s made some progress in approaching the plate and has shown more punching ability this year than in the past. … He moves well behind the plate … blocks balls well, solid arm strength, quick release.
**Round 9 Jake Peppers, RHP, Jacksonville State, White Sox #269; Place No. 187 **Mayo: He’s relieved, he’s started. I think you give him a chance to start at the next level because there are three pitches that work. As for command, he might end up in the bullpen. He has a very good slider that misses a lot of shots and he has a good feel for transitions.
round 10 Ross Dunn, LHP, Arizona State, Twins #297; Place No. 140 Callis: He’s a three-pitch left-hander, he’s got deceptive low-90s fastball, his low-80s slider is probably his best pitch, he’s got a mid-80s changeup. He needs to improve his command, but he’s a three-pitch left-hander and has a good physique. If you can make him more consistent, you may have a #4 starter.
