South American soccer’s governing body CONMEBOL confirmed the bans Wednesday after two teenage fans were killed in a crush ahead of a Copa Libertadores match last month. “It is a hard penalty for Colo Colo and we will appeal,” team president Edmundo Valladares said. “We hope that we can overturn it, at least in part.” Two fans died before the start of a Copa Libertadores match between Colo Colo and Fortaleza of Brazil near Santiago’s Estadio Monumental on April 10.
Edmonton Oilers star forward Leon Draisaitl, Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck and Tampa Bay Lightning standout Nikita Kucherov were named finalists for the 2024-25 Hart Memorial Trophy on Thursday.
Winnipeg Jets fans have already been chanting it for several games whenever his name is announced, and now it's official — Connor Hellebuyck is a finalist for the NHL's most valuable player.
If last season's Stanley Cup championship didn't already clinch it, the Florida Panthers' Game 5 elimination of Tampa Bay on Wednesday night had the Lightning conceding the «Battle of Florida» to their state rivals — for the moment.
