The Chicago Cubs lineup looks a little different tonight, but that's mostly circumstantial. Despite his struggles, Michael Busch probably isn't moving down to sixth on a normal day against a righty.

"Due to strong wind conditions affecting Anyma's stage build, he is unable to perform. Coachella & Anyma have made this decision together with your safety as the priority."

If the first ten games of the season didn't resemble a flaming trainwreck, the conversation going into tonight's affair would be centered around everybody going gaga over the sensational pitching match up.

Brayan Bello is very much the definition of Trick or Treat. At times, he looks like a top of the rotation starter you want out there to end a losing streak.

I'll probably end up looking silly, but I quite fancy Palace here. Brighton lack a reliable scorer though Katsoulas' brilliant goal against Bournemouth tells us he knows where the goal is and I think Palace have the speed of foot and of pass to cause them problems.

Adams, 32, suffered the injury in a Jan. 18 victory against the New Orleans Pelicans while guarding Zion Williamson at the rim. Sliding over to help Alperen Sengun defend Williamson, Adams jumped to contest a shot from the Pelicans forward and immediately grabbed at his left ankle upon landing. Adams is averaging 5.8 points and 8.6 rebounds in 22.8 minutes per game for a Rockets team that leads the NBA in rebounding (49 per game).

I think I answered yesterday after the game, that it was me trying to find a reaction from the group,

The Washington Capitals appear as if they'll be missing veteran winger Tom Wilson for a seventh straight game on Saturday night. The 31-year-old forward was a full participant in the team's morning skate before they host the Florida Panthers, but stuck around for extra work in the typical scratches skate. With Wilson probably sitting out again, Sonny Milano joining him, and Justin Sourdif still on injured reserve, the Caps will likely see both Ivan Miroshnichenko and Brett Leason get a sweater against Florida.

There isn't one songwriter, and so the flavour of the band is always going to change, says Dave Vanian, reflecting on 50 years of the group of which he has been the sole constant member, the Damned. Captain Sensible is a great fan of syrupy pop music and prog and glam rock. So his writing is very poppy, melodic and quite wonderful.

Matthew Knies was absent from the morning skate. Knies has recorded 12 goals and 38 points in 43 games this season, but hasn't registered a point in his past four games. If Knies is able to play, he may be placed on the top line with Auston Matthews and Max Domi, while Bobby McMann drops down to the fourth line. McMann skated with Matthews and Domi during Thursday's morning skate.

Caps head coach Spencer Carbery labeled Protas a game-time decision ahead of the team's game against the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday night. The Belarusian winger was again a full participant in the team's morning skate, and Carbery previously hinted that both Protas and Tom Wilson could dress on the current two-game road trip. "We'll find out [if Protas is good to go]," Carbery said pregame. "I'll find out this afternoon."

📸: RMNB Justin Sourdif gave Capitals fans one of the most fun individual efforts of the season, recording five points and scoring his first career hat trick against the Anaheim Ducks. Sourdif had fantastic chemistry with Connor McMichael and Ryan Leonard in their first game together. Now the question becomes - Can the Young Guns 2.0 keep it up against a usually-stingy defensively Dallas Stars team.
